Here are some our Who Knew? grilling tips…
PREP:
You can clean the grill grates by soaking them in a tub with hot water and one cup each of ammonia and dish washing liquid. Let it sit overnight, then the next day, grab those rubber gloves and scrub away!
You can also use WD-40 to clean your grill…spray and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. But make sure you wipe them off and clean them with soap and water!
AFTER THE GRILLING PARTY:
So your party was a hit, but the cleanup? Gross. Grab an onion, cut it in half and dip it in vegetable oil…scrub the onion over the hot grates. The enzymes in the onion will break down the grime and the oil softens it.
You can also use a red onion to add flavor by halving it, dipping it in water, then rubbing it over the grates before you start grilling.
A NEAT TRICK:
If you’re grilling a steak on a closed grill, you can open a can of Dr. Pepper or Root Beer and place it on the hottest part of the grill. The soda will boil and keep the meat moist, while adding flavor.
Thanks for listening!

Colton Dixon‘s “Miracles” has hit No. 1 on Billboard‘s Christian Hot AC/CHR chart.
“I’m so grateful to all the stations and listeners for getting this song to number one,” Dixon says. “What an incredible journey the past few months with this song have been so far. I feel like our country, our world, is in a place where we need hope maybe more than ever. The stories I’ve heard from fans all over about how during this time they’ve been able to see the little things, the little daily miracles God does in a bigger way now, is really why I wrote this song. Each day, even in the midst of hard times, there is always something we can be grateful for.”
Dixon and his wife Annie are expecting their first children in just a few months, twin girls. Also included on COLTON DIXON is the first love song he’s ever written, dedicated to Annie.

Today I shared a fantastic devotional from Tim Gustafson called ‘A Hundred Years from Now…’
“I just want people to remember me a hundred years from now,” said screenwriter Rod Serling in 1975. Creator of the TV series The Twilight Zone, Serling wanted people to say of him, “He was a writer.” Most of us can identify with Serling’s desire to leave a legacy—something to give our lives a sense of meaning and permanence.
The story of Job shows us a man struggling with meaning amid life’s fleeting days. In a moment, not just his possessions but those most precious to him, his children, were taken. Then his friends accused him of deserving this fate. Job cried out: “Oh, that my words were recorded, that they were written on a scroll, that they were inscribed with an iron tool on lead, or engraved in rock forever!” (Job 19:23–24).
Job’s words have been “engraved in rock forever.” We have them in the Bible. Yet Job needed even more meaning in his life than the legacy he’d leave behind. He discovered it in the character of God. “I know that my redeemer lives,” Job declared, “and that in the end he will stand on the earth” (19:25). This knowledge gave him the right longing. “I myself will see him,” Job said. “How my heart yearns within me!” (v. 27).
In the end, Job didn’t find what he expected. He found much more—the Source of all meaning and permanence (42:1–6).
