Episode Description

This month's book review is for the book "Praying the Bible" written by Donald Whitney

What is the book about?

All Christians know they should pray, but sometimes it's hard to know how - especially if the minutes start to drag, and our minds start to wander. Offering listeners hope, encouragement, and the practical advice they're looking for, this concise book by Professor Donald Whitney outlines a simple, time-tested method that can help transform our prayer lives: praying the words of the Bible. Praying the Bible shows listeners how to pray through portions of scripture one line at a time, helping us stay focused by allowing God's word itself to direct our thoughts and words. Simple yet profound, this resource will prove invaluable to all Christians as they seek to commune with their Heavenly Father in prayer each and every day.

Cross Connection Music Is The Soundtrack Of Our Lives!Each week on "Cross Connection" we play a secular song from the 60's & 70's that has either Christian lyrics or principles directly related to the Scriptures. We then discuss the author and/or artist(s) and the song.We look into the lyrics of each song - relating it to the time in which it was originally played on the radio and what, if any, meaning it has today.We make a "Cross Connection" to each song and relate the lyrics to the "timeless" principles taught in God's word. At times, we part theological company with those who might use their talents in music to deny God's word. We always do our best to point that out on the program. In all, we hold true to the Word without compromise!

Want to dig deep What is true? Lucia Laubscher Deep diving into the Word of God. Many believe Christianity is a religion of simply accepting Jesus as your Saviour and continuing to live your life in contrast to His Word. Is this true? Is the Word of God still applicable to the lives of Christians today? What is the Spiritual intent of the Law of God and how can we apply it to our lives? Does modern or progressive Christianity match up with the original Christianity of the Apostles and Christ Himself? I deep dive into the truths contained in the most well known, yet most misunderstood and misquoted book in the world.
