Summary

What do you do when the unthinkable happens? Chris Norton was faced with this question when, after a tragic football accident, he was told by doctors he would never walk again. Chris is the coauthor of The Seven Longest Yards, subject of the film 7 Yards: The Chris Norton Story and a motivational speaker sharing the story of how a life-altering football injury shaped his life for the better. In this episode, Chris and Ken discuss how faith, radical responsibility, community, and having a purpose outside of yourself can turn pain into something great. “I just have this belief that I am responsible for my future, right? You gave it to God, but then you got to do your part and put in the work, and I knew that I had to trust God. And what was going on and how we can turn this pain into a purpose. And then I got to do my part and get to work and see what can come from it.” - Chris Norton “No matter what you go through in life, if you keep going, if you keep praying and keep believing, know that good things can come. You don't know when it will come. But I do believe that God will turn your pain into a purpose.” - Chris Norton Never miss another episode! Subscribe to “On the Edge with Ken Harrison” today.

    Steve Arterburn Reveals How Porn Damages Marriages, How to Break Porn Addiction and Why Wives Should NOT Remain Silent

    Release Date: 03/11/2021

    Authors: Ken Harrison

    Description: Ken Harrison is joined by best-selling author, radio host, and pastor Steve Arterburn on the latest episode of “On the Edge with Ken Harrison.” Together they discuss how pornography addicts men, how it creates a supernatural bond that leads men to hate their wives, and why women covering for their husbands and concealing their problems makes things worse. In addition, Arterburn shares his own story of the connection between pornography in his own life. “Sometimes you have to disturb the peace to make peace. The strategy to keep your husband’s addiction and actions quiet, such as to not reach out for help when he beats you, is a problem. That's keeping the status quo, and we know that God does not honor peacekeepers; He honors peacemakers.” — Steve Arterburn

    John Bevere Explains the Difference Between Being Scared of the Lord and Fearing the Lord

    Release Date: 04/22/2021

    Authors: Ken Harrison

    Description: Ken Harrison is joined by internationally known evangelist and best-selling author John Bevere on the latest episode of “On the Edge with Ken Harrison.” Together they discuss an experience that forever influenced John’s walk with Christ, the difference between being scared of the Lord and fearing the Lord, and God’s call for us to return to his heart.The difference between being scared of the Lord and fearing the Lord:“A person who is scared of God has something to hide, but a person who fears God has nothing to hide. Fearing the Lord is not equal to being scared of God. We can't have intimacy with God if we’re scared of him, but rather the person who fears God is terrified of being away from him. We fear God when we embrace his heart and venerate him above everything and everyone else. What is important to him becomes important to me and what is not important to him is not important to me.”
