Lifeline’s Eve…

Today Todd decided to call today “Lifeline’s Eve…” which, while unique, is defiintely TRUE!

Lifeline 2019 starts tomorrow on WNZR, and we are excited to hear from you during our annual day of Prayer and Praise.

Today our first Game Time Tuesday contest was Song Poetry…the lyrics are:

“Was I love when no one else would show up,
was I Jesus to the least of those?
Was my worship more than just a song?”

The answer was Live Like That by Sidewalk Prophets – congratulations to Kim from Mount Vernon who wins the $5 gift certificate to Troyer’s of Apple Valley.

Our Name That Tune featured song was a STUMPER!  We’ll tackle that one next week.

Artist news today features information about that same band, Sidewalk Prophets…click here for more!

Thanks for listening!

Mystery Monday – Hug an introvert (if that’s okay with them)

Today Lilly and I celebrated the introverts in our lives because it’s “introverts week”!

Most people know if they are introverted or not, but with the help of personality tests, you may be surprised! You could be more or less introverted then you think!

First, we talked about the history of introverts week!

Here are some of the personality tests we talked about:

Briggs Myers/Carl Jung Test 

DISC Assessment  

Holtzman inkblot technique 

We had to give some science behind this as well, of course!

 

The Afternoons Drive's - Todays mystery question

Name something a person owns that reflects their personality.

  1. Car with 57
  2. Clothes with 13
  3. Pets with 9
  4. House with 6
  5. Jewelry with 4
  6. Furniture with 2

Congratulations to Pam from Fredericktown who guessed our top two answers and won that $5 Gift Card to Troyer’s of Apple Vally!

Praise God that He moves…despite us!

God IS on the move – that’s not up for debate!  It’s a truth we can rest in.  What we have to realize is that God will move despite us…so it’s a theme that reminds us not to get in the way or clog up what He is doing.

BUT…even though we know He moves despite us, we still should ask Him to move – our prayers and requests should be asking the Holy Spirit to move in and around us.

How do we get in the way?

One way is that we fail to embrace to fruits of the spirit – the very things we ask for that we fail to do ourselves.

Do we love well?                                                         Or get bogged down in hate?

Do we choose joy?                                                      Or choose grumpy?

Do we promote peace?                                              Or spread and promote conflict?

Do we demonstrate patience?                                  Or fly off the handle?

Do we offer kindness?                                               Or are we offering indifference?

Do we seek goodness?                                                Or seeking the negative and critical?

Do we ground ourselves in faith?                            Or trust our own understanding?

Do we embrace gentleness?                                       Or are we rough around the edges?

Do we embody self-control?                                       Or is it anything goes?

What about things like forgiveness? Think about this: if God forgave you like you forgive others, where would you be?

Is it more about Him?  Or more about us?

These are challenges for us to consider moving forward…

Thanks for listening!

A Bite-Sized Praise Thursday!

A father’s character begins with honesty
“Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who deal truthfully are his delight.”
Proverbs 12:22
The Bible clearly states that God always keeps his promises. In other words, He always speaks the truth. When a father can be trusted to speak the truth in every circumstance, he builds a bond of trust that pleases God and everyone in his family. Proverbs 13:3 says, “He who guards his mouth preserve his life, but he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction.” Guard your words with those you love, for they are watching your character as you tried to build up their‘s.
Forgiveness is a trait God loves
“Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.” Romans 12:17–18
Forgiveness is an essential element in living in Christian life. When you choose to forgive someone who has hurt you or disappointed you, the window of God‘s forgiveness will open to comfort and heal your own heart. Everything you do should reflect well on the Savior who bought you with his own blood. Pleasing God with your words and deeds opens the heavens door to bless your life for His glory. If God has forgiven you of your transgressions – “As far as the east is from the west” (Psalms 103:12)- Should you not do the same for anyone who has offended you?
