FULL SHOW | Young People Loving God; Thomas Ware Joins Get Up to Drop Christmas Song; Human Love vs God Love; and MORE

The episode opens with a vibrant reminder that the next generation isn’t abandoning faith the way headlines often suggest. In her Faith Walk, Erica shares a moving story about a 19-year-old who urged his family to join California Worship Center—proof, she says, that plenty of young adults are seeking God, serving in ministry, and anchoring themselves in prayer communities. She celebrates these “quiet but committed” young believers as evidence that youth church culture is alive and thriving. Later in her Ericaism, she challenges listeners to choose wisely and not make emotion-driven decisions that lead to unnecessary struggle, emphasizing that discernment is a spiritual discipline that shapes future peace.  The show’s emotional arc continues in the Love Talk, where Erica breaks down the difference between human love—which can be inconsistent, conditional, and rooted in longing—and God’s love, which is steady, unwavering, and restorative. She invites listeners to stop using flawed love songs as their reference point and instead ground their relationships in divine love that never fails. The episode closes with gospel artist Thomas Ware, who debuts his new Christmas single “Christmas with Mama.” Ware reflects on creating music that honors both memory and legacy while sharing about his life as a pastor, mental-health advocate, and upcoming projects, including his holiday album The Gift Called Love. The conversation brings warmth and heart to an episode centered on faith, intentional living, and learning how to love better.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
