Hour 1: Loving One Another (Even When It's Hard) - with Chris Rappazini
Before Jesus left this earth, He gave His followers a new commandment: "Love one another" (John 13:34). What does that mean? And who did Jesus mean by "one another"? We don't have to search far and wide to find disunity and division in our world today. News shows and social media platforms can be a hornet's nest of hostility and hate. Sometimes, sadly, even those of us in the church adopt this attitude. On Monday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, devotional author, Chris Rappazini hopes that as we study November's Today in the Word we'll learn how we can imitate Christ's love as we interact with others and cultivate an attitude of humility as we seek to understand others.
Today in the Word - November 2022
Hour 2: Reformation Day - with Dr. Scott Manor and Sam Lamerson
Reformation Day is celebrated by Protestant Christians as the day to recognize and commemorate Martin Luther's nailing his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany in 1517. What caused the reformation? What were the religious, social, and economic events that were happening in that day? On Monday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, President of Knox Theological Seminary, Dr. Scott Manor and Professor of Biblical Studies, Sam Lamerson join us to discuss how the church should think about reformation today, and are there parts of the reformation that the church has forgotten about and needs to be reminded of?
Hour 3: Bless Your Pastor - with Brian Kluth
On Monday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, Brian Kluth, national spokesperson for NAE and Bless Your Pastor joins us to encourage Christians and churches to prepare to bless our pastors during the month of October. National research by the Barna group indicates that pastors are discourages, with 43 percent of pastors saying that they have given serious consideration to leaving vocational ministry. The National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) created the Bless Your Pastor campaign to help churches encourage their pastors.
