Get Up! Mornings With Erica Campbell

This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell opens with a powerful reminder to carry your own joy, as Erica encourages listeners to stop letting public opinion, social media, or even family dynamics dictate their peace. She shares how joy is not just a feeling, but a spiritual weapon—something believers must protect and bring with them wherever they go. That message threads through the morning, reinforcing the idea that purpose, confidence, and emotional freedom come from knowing who you are in God, not from external validation or approval.  The show also delivers clarity and context as Judge Melodee Armstrong joins the conversation to explain the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision weakening Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. She breaks down how the ruling limits the use of race in drawing congressional maps, why Louisiana became the focal point of the case, and what the long‑term implications could mean for minority voter representation nationwide—especially heading into future elections. Erica later lightens the mood during Love Talk, urging listeners to give better, more thoughtful gifts by paying attention to what people actually enjoy—an idea supported by psychological research showing that meaningful, personalized gifts strengthen emotional connection far more than expensive or generic ones. The episode blends faith, civic awareness, and everyday wisdom, reminding listeners that intention—whether in joy, voting, or love—truly matters. Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this Fresh Word Friday, Dr. Creflo Dollar delivers a powerful excerpt from his message Religion Misled the Church, challenging long‑held teachings around divorce and condemnation. He emphasizes that God hates the pain divorce causes—not the people involved—and that misapplied religious doctrine has kept many believers trapped in guilt instead of grace. The conversation resonates deeply as the Get Up Church discusses how spiritual freedom comes from truly understanding God’s word, not human tradition—a theme long associated with Dollar’s grace‑centered ministry and broader teachings on biblical interpretation.   The show also tackles major real‑world impact, breaking down Tennessee’s newly approved congressional maps that dismantle the state’s only majority‑Black district following a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling weakening the Voting Rights Act. Lawmakers and civil rights advocates warn the move could significantly dilute Black voting power nationwide, sparking protests and legal challenges. To uplift the spirit, the episode features gospel producer Tony Dickerson, who joins Erica Campbell to talk about his journey as a Navy veteran, songwriter, and producer, and the inspiration behind“The Greatest of All Time,” the powerful new single performed by the The Tennessee Mass Choir—a declaration proclaiming God above all cultural “GOAT” conversations and reaffirming faith during uncertain times.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Faith and perspective take center stage on Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell as the show opens with the E&G True Hollywood Bible Story retelling of Peter walking on water from Bible scripture, reminding listeners that stepping out in faith is possible when your eyes stay fixed on Jesus—even in the middle of a storm. Erica builds on that message with her Ericaism of the Day, encouraging believers not to let doubt, comparison, or intimidation steal what they already know about God, emphasizing that faith grows through application, not perfection.   The show also welcomes gospel powerhouse Renee Spearman alongside Kim Burrell and Montell Jordan to talk about their new collaborative single “You Chose Me,” a song centered on identity and divine purpose. Written by Renee Spearman and Montell Jordan, the track reflects the biblical truth that God chooses us before we ever choose Him and blends contemporary gospel with soulful vocals that reach both church and crossover audiences. The conversation highlights Montell Jordan’s continued ministry journey from R&B stardom to gospel music and pastoral leadership, reinforcing the episode’s overarching theme: trusting God’s call, no matter the season.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the show opens with a powerful faith reminder rooted in Psalm 34:1, where Erica breaks down what it truly means to “bless the Lord at all times.” Drawing from the biblical context of David praising God while in danger, the conversation challenges listeners to offer praise not just during victory, but in moments of fear, uncertainty, and hardship. The discussion reinforces that praise is an act of faith and spiritual maturity—even when circumstances don’t make sense—echoing the Psalm’s origin story of David trusting God while fleeing for his life.   Later, Erica encourages listeners to confront real-life struggles with temptation, referencing the phrase “lead us not into temptation” from the Lord’s Prayer. The conversation explores how temptation isn’t sin itself, but an opportunity to choose discipline, wisdom, and obedience. Scripture and commentary make clear that this prayer is less about God causing temptation and more about asking for divine protection and clarity in moments of weakness. The show also blends spiritual growth with practical living during Healthy Ever After, where fitness expert Dawn Strozier explains the importance of intentional training and progressive overload—a method of gradually increasing physical challenge to achieve real results instead of plateauing. Together, faith, discipline, and purpose take center stage, offering listeners tools to grow spiritually, mentally, and physically.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, Erica opens up about what it really looks like to fight for your peace in the middle of a busy, overwhelming season. In a powerful Ericaism and Faith Walk, she shares how renewing your mind, guarding your thoughts, and anchoring your hope in Jesus Christ can keep anxiety from stealing today’s joy. Drawing from the timeless hymn“On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand,” Erica reminds listeners that when life feels unpredictable, true stability comes from placing our hope fully in Christ—not circumstances, people, or outcomes.   Later, gospel legend Donald Lawrence joins the show to talk about the return of How Sweet the Sound, America’s premier gospel choir competition. As the longtime host and brand ambassador, Lawrence explains why he calls choirs a “non‑accredited conservatory,” crediting choir culture for shaping some of the greatest voices in music. He emphasizes that while the event is framed as a competition, its heart is really about celebration, excellence, and the power of rehearsal—sometimes lasting 10 to 12 hours—to honor gospel music the right way. With choirs, soloists, and gospel stars taking the stage, How Sweet the Sound continues to spotlight faith, artistry, and community on a national level.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell opens with a powerful faith moment rooted in 1 Kings 3, as Erica challenges listeners to reflect on whether their words actually please the Lord. Drawing from the story of Solomon—whose request for wisdom over wealth pleased God—she encourages intentional speech, prayer, and motives that align with God’s purpose, reminding believers that what we say matters just as much as what we ask for. Biblical scholars note that Solomon’s request was significant because it showed humility and a desire to serve others rather than self‑interest, which is why God responded by giving him more than he asked for.   The show then shifts to practical life wisdom with Money Mondays, as financial strategist Dave Anderson, known as The Business Bully, breaks down why credit health is essential in moments of economic uncertainty. He offers straightforward advice on pulling credit reports, addressing discrepancies, lowering credit utilization, and communicating with creditors rather than avoiding them—steps experts widely identify as foundational to improving credit scores. The episode also covers the sudden shutdown of Spirit Airlines, explaining how the budget carrier ceased operations after failing to secure a $500 million federal bailout, leaving thousands of travelers stranded and marking the collapse of one of America’s most recognizable ultra‑low‑cost airlines amid rising fuel costs and repeated bankruptcy filings. Together, the conversations balance faith, finances, and real‑world headlines—helping listeners start the week spiritually grounded and practically prepared.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell weaves together faith, culture, and inspiration, led by the always-engaging E&G True Hollywood Bible Story. The team brings new life to the familiar Genesis account of Jacob and Esau, breaking down how Esau’s impulsive decision to trade his birthright for a bowl of stew serves as a timeless warning against sacrificing long-term purpose for short-term satisfaction. The conversation underscores the spiritual weight of stewardship, patience, and honoring what God has entrusted to us—lessons that continue to resonate with believers today.   The show also features uplifting music and fresh voices, including gospel artist Josh Bracy, who stops by to share his single "Favor Everywhere.” Bracy discusses how the song reflects God’s grace showing up in everyday life and how balancing ministry, music, and family keeps him grounded. Rounding out the episode, sports media personality Joy Taylor joins the Get Up! family to introduce The Daily Play, her new podcast on the Urban One Podcast Network.

This uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell centers on celebration, faith, and empowerment. As Erica celebrates her birthday, she offers a deeply personal Faith Walk encouraging listeners to live with expectation—not anxiety—trusting that God’s timing and blessings are intentional, not random. Reflecting on life, growth, and gratitude, Erica reminds the Get Up Church that placing your heart in a posture of faith and patience allows hope to thrive, even amid uncertainty. Her message echoes a broader encouragement shared across her platform: no matter the season, expect God to do great things.   The show also features powerful conversations that blend spiritual and practical wisdom. Pastor Touré Roberts joins Erica to discuss his new book, Knowing: The Journey to Certainty in an Uncertain World, where he explores “divine intelligence” — the inner, God-given knowing that brings clarity in chaotic times. He emphasizes trusting this inner compass over fear or noise, a message resonating strongly in today’s uncertain climate. In addition, licensed gerontology social worker Dr. Macy Smith sheds light on the rising rates of Alzheimer’s and dementia, explaining that lifestyle choices—such as staying socially engaged, physically active, and mentally stimulated—can significantly reduce risk, a claim supported by current research showing up to 45% of dementia cases may be preventable with healthy habits.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell centers on spiritual renewal and the power of personal transformation. Erica’s Faith Walk dives into 2 Corinthians 5:17, reminding listeners that being “in Christ” means the old life is gone and a new one has begun — not just in belief, but in behavior, mindset, and identity. The message challenges believers to stop glorifying who they used to be and fully walk in the freedom and purpose of who God has made them now, a theme echoed throughout the show’s moments of prayer, encouragement, and reflection.   The show also brings scripture to life with the E&G True Hollywood Bible Story spotlighting David and Nathan, a powerful reminder of accountability, repentance, and grace drawn from 2 Samuel 12, where Nathan boldly confronts King David with the truth, leading to repentance rather than destruction. Rounding out the episode, Bishop William Murphy III joins Get Up! to introduce his song “No Failure,” a prophetic declaration reminding listeners that while people stumble, God never does. Murphy opens up about how grief, leadership pressure, and personal transition shaped the message behind the song, offering hope that God’s promises remain intact — even in seasons that feel like setbacks.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If your mornings have been starting with anxiety instead of peace, Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell hit right on time with a powerful reminder to stop doom scrolling and protect your mental health. Drawing from real-life observations and faith-based wisdom, Erica breaks down how constant exposure to negative news and social media can fuel anxiety, disrupt sleep, and steal your joy—something mental health experts say is closely linked to increased stress, depression, and emotional exhaustion. She encourages listeners to set boundaries with their phones, limit negative content, and intentionally make space for God, rest, and positive thought patterns rooted in peace rather than fear.   The show also brought clarity and empowerment with legal expert Judge Melodee Armstrong, who explained what families and individuals need to know after serious transportation accidents. Judge Armstrong emphasized the importance of gathering evidence, seeking legal counsel early, and understanding your rights—especially in complex cases involving airlines, large companies, or insurance providers who move quickly to protect themselves. Rounding out the morning, Erica delivered a heartfelt message for anyone stuck asking, “What’s wrong with me?”—reminding listeners that negative self-talk is often tied to stress, trauma, or unmet expectations, not personal failure. Mental health research supports this, linking chronic self-criticism to anxiety and depression, while highlighting mindset renewal, faith, and self-compassion as essential tools for healing. The takeaway was clear: protect your peace, advocate for yourself, and remember—there is nothing wrong with you.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, Erica challenges listeners to live their faith out loud, reminding us that Christianity is recognized not by appearances or arguments, but by love in action. Drawing from John 13:35, she encourages believers to reflect Christ through kindness, humility, and how we treat people every day — a message that resonates deeply in a time when faith is often louder online than it is loving in real life. The conversation pushes listeners to check what they’re exuding and to make sure their walk matches their witness.   The show also delivers powerful motivation with Erica’s reflection on I Refuse to Settle, inspired by Charmaine Tucker’s newly released book, which calls believers to stop accepting average relationships, careers, and circumstances simply because they’re convenient. The message centers on choosing purpose over comfort and trusting God enough to wait for better. Rounding out the episode, Dave Anderson, “The Business Bully,” brings his signature Money Monday truth, urging listeners to stop romanticizing ideas and start executing them — reminding us that faith and finances work together, and that growth requires structure, discipline, and action.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this Good Friday edition of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the show centers on faith, patience, and purpose as believers prepare for Resurrection Sunday. Pastor Dale C. Bronner, senior pastor of Word of Faith Family Worship Cathedral, delivers a powerful Fresh Word reminding listeners that “some things take time,” encouraging perseverance in prayer and patience with people—especially when believing God for transformation. His message aligns with a core Christian theme of Holy Week: reflecting on Christ’s sacrifice on the cross while trusting that God’s work often unfolds over seasons, not moments, a perspective widely emphasized during Good Friday observances across the global church.   Erica then challenges listeners to walk confidently in their God‑given purpose, sharing real‑world insight from her own career journey and reminding believers that validation comes from calling—not popularity. The show also welcomes rising worship artist Madison Copeland, who introduces her new single “What Kind of Love (Agape),” released just in time for Resurrection Weekend. Drawing from the biblical meaning of agape—God’s unconditional, sacrificial love—Copeland explains how the song reflects Christ’s love shown through the cross and resurrection, a message at the heart of Easter faith worldwide. Together, the episode blends spiritual encouragement, cultural relevance, and worship that points listeners back to hope, identity, and the power of God’s love.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Faith, wellness, and purpose take center stage in a powerful and uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell. Erica opens with a heartfelt Faith Walk, encouraging listeners to be intentional about growing in the Word—not just knowing scripture, but truly understanding and living it. She challenges believers to spend focused time in the Bible, even if it’s just one verse at a time, reminding listeners that consistent spiritual practices like prayer and scripture study are widely shown to support clarity, resilience, and emotional well‑being. The message is clear: faith grows when we make room for it daily, not just on Sundays.  The conversation then shifts from spiritual growth to physical and personal transformation. During Healthy Ever After, certified trainer Dawn Strozier breaks down why progress isn’t always reflected on the scale, noting that better sleep, increased energy, clearer skin, and reduced pain are all real indicators of improved health—an approach supported by public health research showing that consistent movement benefits the body and brain well beyond weight loss. Erica closes with a deeply personal Erica‑ism, urging listeners to embrace discomfort as part of growth and to stop expecting extraordinary results from average effort. Drawing from her own experience, she reminds the audience that renewal—spiritually, mentally, and physically—takes time, courage, and a willingness to do something new. The episode ultimately encourages listeners to trust the process, stay consistent, and boldly pursue the best version of themselves.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this “terrific Tuesday,” the show opens with prayer and a Faith Walk centered on letting God lead—not as a shortcut to an easy life, but as a posture of trust when life feels confusing. The conversation points listeners back to scripture (including Jeremiah 29:11 and the reminder that God “knows the plans,” plus the idea that God is at work even in the hard parts), using a simple metaphor: life works better when you stop trying to fight for control and let God take the lead. A helpful bit of added context: Jeremiah 29:11 was originally written to people living in exile, offering hope and a future in the middle of a long, difficult season—not a promise that nothing hard will happen—so the encouragement here is endurance and trust, not “instant ease.”   Later, the episode’s biggest moments include a standout interview with Bishop Paul S. Morton, who joins the show to talk about his new single “Go Through” (a family collaboration featuring PJ Morton and Jasmine Morton Robinson) and the heart behind the message: you don’t get to the “other side” by getting stuck—you go through. Reporting around the release also notes the track is positioned as an anthem of resilience and is available on major streaming platforms. Then Dr. Willie Jolley’s “Wake Up and Win” spotlights Junior Bridgeman—a former NBA player who became known for building major wealth through business ownership (including fast-food franchises), reinforcing the show’s theme of steady, intentional growth. In the relationship/advice lane, the rundown also includes Love Talk: “Careful with the potions” (listed in the show materials), and the on-air discussion warns against treating people like “options,” because commitment and legacy require real decisions—not endless swiping.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Erica Campbell kicked off this Get Up! Mornings episode with a heart-check that hit home: “Comfortable Being Me” isn’t a vibe—it’s a decision. She shared why she chose a natural, low-maintenance haircut and challenged listeners to stop feeling like they have to “add something” (hair, makeup, extra anything) to be worthy, beautiful, or confident. The bigger message: learn to be at peace with who you already are—take care of yourself, yes, but don’t perform for everyone else to feel valid. That theme carries straight into Money Monday with finance expert Anthony O’Neal, who laid out practical ways to break generational money habits—starting with normalizing monthly family budget meetings and involving kids early so money isn’t “mysterious” when they grow up. He also recommended a simple framework for teaching children how to handle money—prioritizing giving, saving, then spending—and reminded parents they don’t have to be perfect to start; they can learn in real time using free resources and guidance.   Then Erica’s Love Talk asked a question meant to spark honest reflection: are you showing up as a blessing—or just another bill? She pushed back on transactional dating expectations (rent, nails, car note, expensive dinners as “requirements”) and urged women to prioritize heart connection, alignment, and legacy over “pay-for-play energy,” because money alone won’t build a lasting partnership. The takeaway wasn’t “don’t want nice things”—it was don’t reduce relationships to transactions and don’t miss real partnership because you’re only measuring what someone can buy. If you’re trying to build something real, experts consistently point to the same foundations Erica was circling: clear communication, self-awareness, and healthy boundaries—because long-term relationships work better when expectations are discussed honestly and respect stays intact.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Faith takes center stage on this powerful Friday edition of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell as Pastor Reginald Wayne Sharp II, senior pastor of Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church in Chicago, delivers a timely Fresh Word Friday reminding listeners to “control what you can and give the rest to God.” Known nationally for his clear, culturally relevant preaching, Pastor Sharp challenges believers to focus on personal obedience and spiritual integrity instead of trying to manage outcomes beyond their control — a message that continues to resonate across his growing congregation and digital ministry. The encouragement flows seamlessly into Erica Campbell’s heartfelt reflection on knowing your assignment, where she shares a defining moment with Donnie McClurkin that reshaped her understanding of ministry beyond church walls, emphasizing that purpose sometimes places you where you’re misunderstood — but exactly where God needs you.   The inspiration continues with a special in‑studio conversation featuring gospel powerhouse Deitrick Haddon, who joins the show to discuss his brand‑new choir‑driven single, “The King of Glory,” recorded with The Hill City Collective and STOUT. Released in March 2026, the song blends traditional gospel energy with bold worship declarations, reflecting Haddon’s lifelong commitment to choir music and his roots in ministry. During the interview, Haddon opens up about staying spiritually grounded while pushing creative boundaries, sharing how discipline, prayer, and clarity of calling have kept him relevant across decades in gospel music. Together, these moments create a soul‑stirring episode that challenges listeners to walk confidently in purpose, remain rooted in faith, and boldly share the message wherever God has placed them.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the show centers on faith, healing, and resilience, beginning with a powerful conversation with Marquis Gold of Fresh Start Worship, who joins the show to discuss the group’s new single “You Are.” Gold shares his personal testimony of surviving a life‑threatening illness that landed him in the ICU, explaining how the song was born out of a moment when doctors told him to prepare for the worst. His story echoes a growing trend in gospel music where worship songs are deeply rooted in lived testimony, positioning “You Are” as a declaration of faith forged through crisis rather than comfort.   The episode also features an engaging E&G True Hollywood Bible Story spotlighting Jesus healing Peter’s mother‑in‑law from a severe fever (Luke 4:38–39), emphasizing Jesus’ compassion, authority over sickness, and the immediate response of service after healing—an often‑highlighted theme in biblical scholarship as a model of discipleship. Building on that message, Erica delivers a deeply personal Ericaism on choosing peace over denial, drawing a clear line between pretending nothing is wrong and resting in God while fully acknowledging reality. Faith leaders and theologians consistently reinforce this distinction, noting that true peace doesn’t ignore pain but trusts God within it—a message that resonated throughout the show as callers shared testimonies of healing, gratitude, and endurance.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell centers on spiritual trust, inner renewal, and practical wellness, all wrapped in encouragement and prayer. Erica’s Faith Walk challenges listeners to “close your eyes and walk,” reminding us that walking by faith—not sight—means trusting God’s direction even when the path isn’t visible. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:7, the conversation reinforces that faith is a daily decision to rely on God’s promises rather than circumstances, trusting that He is working behind the scenes even when we can’t see it. Listeners are encouraged to develop familiarity with God’s voice through consistent prayer and Scripture, allowing peace—not fear—to guide their steps.   The show also highlights the Love Talk rooted in Ezekiel 36:26, focusing on God’s promise to give us a new heart and a new spirit. Erica reflects on how life’s pressures can harden us, but God offers spiritual renewal—replacing hearts of stone with hearts of compassion, hope, and tenderness toward Him and others. Rounding out the episode, Healthy Ever After with Alana Atkins brings timely insight into spring health, explaining how seasonal transitions support the body’s natural detox process. Spring is associated with liver function and renewal, and Alana shares gentle, practical ways—like reducing heavy foods and supporting digestion—to align with the season without extreme cleanses. Together, these segments encourage listeners to trust God deeply, embrace spiritual transformation, and steward their physical health with wisdom.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This uplifting episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell opens with a powerful Faith Walk centered on “Knowing Jesus More,” as Erica reflects on how intentionally deepening her relationship with Christ has transformed her confidence, endurance, and hope. Drawing from her new Christology study, Erica reminds listeners that knowing about Jesus is not the same as truly knowing Him—and that life’s hardships become survivable when faith is rooted in a personal relationship with Christ, not surface‑level tradition.

On this powerful Monday edition of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the show opens with a Faith Walk centered on believing God’s love, reminding listeners that God’s love is not based on feelings or performance but on who He is.

Throughout the show, Erica, Griff, and the Get Up Church share emotional stories of young patients—including Kennedy, Braylen, Ashton, Phoenix, Reagan, Kinsley, Cameron, and Harry—whose families turned to St. Jude during the darkest moments of childhood cancer battles. Their stories highlight St. Jude’s model of providing treatment, housing, food, and travel at no cost to families, ensuring parents can focus solely on their child’s healing—an approach echoed nationwide during similar radiothons from major stations like WMCI, B100, and urban radio networks all rallying communities to support St. Jude’s mission.   The episode underscores not just St. Jude’s emotional impact but its historic medical breakthroughs, noting that childhood cancer survival rates have risen from around 20% in the 1960s to over 80% today, thanks in part to donor‑funded research. Erica and the team repeatedly call on listeners to become “Partners in Hope” by giving $19 a month, a contribution that directly fuels cutting‑edge treatment and research shared globally to save more children. With gospel artists, volunteers, and callers joining in throughout the broadcast, the episode becomes both a celebration of generosity and a reminder of the urgent need to continue fighting childhood cancer—one story, one donation, and one child at a time.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell opens with a powerful Faith Walk focused on Jesus’ command to “love your neighbor as I have loved you.” Erica breaks down the challenge of loving people who test our patience, reminding listeners that biblical love requires grace, long‑suffering, and obedience even when it doesn't feel fair. She encourages the audience to evaluate their “love actions” with the same intentional focus they apply to personal goals or spiritual growth. The show keeps its uplifting momentum with birthday shoutouts, inspiration from Griff, and moments of joy shared throughout the Get Up Church family.  A major highlight of the show is Judge Melodee Armstrong’s breakdown of Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s recent Texas Senate primary, where confusion over new precinct‑based voting rules led to significant voter disenfranchisement in Dallas County.

Erica expands on this in the Faith Walk, encouraging listeners to “wait well” by resisting comparison, staying patient, and trusting that God’s timing is intentional and kind.   Momentum builds with the Red Hands interview, where band member Kyrie Tyler discusses their new single “Walking.” The song’s message — keep moving even when life is unclear — mirrors the group’s recurring theme that consistency matters more than speed. Online releases emphasize that the track is meant for anyone “tired, unsure, or holding on by faith alone,” inviting listeners to lean into movement as worship. Finally, Erica brings it home with her Ericaism, “I Didn’t Know,” challenging the audience to let go of the excuse of ignorance.

In today’s episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the show dives deep into three powerful themes shaping faith and family life. In her Faith Walk, Erica addresses how to recognize unhealthy spiritual leadership, reminding listeners to trust the Word over manipulative or secretive directives. This aligns with broader Christian discussions warning believers to watch for red flags in church leadership—such as leaders who isolate members, micromanage, or use “God told me…” to manipulate behavior. Research shows that these behaviors reflect patterns seen in controlling or abusive pastors, emphasizing the importance of personal discernment and biblical grounding for protection and spiritual health.   Erica also shares heartfelt reflections on quality mother–son time, opening up about how intentional questions help teens express themselves. Parenting experts highlight that teens communicate best when they feel heard, validated, and supported—especially in today’s high‑stress digital age—reinforcing Erica’s strategy of asking deeper questions beyond “How was your day?” to build trust and emotional connection. On Money Mondays, finance expert Jini Thornton helps couples navigate love and money, encouraging transparency, shared vision, and honest conversations—an approach consistent with data showing money is the #1 source of relationship conflict, often caused by mismatched values or hidden financial habits. Experts agree that financial intimacy, boundary‑setting, and honest communication not only reduce friction but strengthen commitment and long‑term stability.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today’s episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell is anchored by an empowering Fresh Word Friday message from Pastor Vincent Campbell of The Faith Center in Tucker, Georgia. Pastor Campbell reminds listeners that isolation is one of the enemy’s greatest tools to pull people away from their God‑given purpose, urging believers to stay connected to faith‑filled community for strength and accountability. His church, known for its multicultural, Bible‑centered teaching and warm community environment, emphasizes belonging, transformation, and living out faith with boldness. Erica follows this with a powerful Ericaism underscoring that “community is better,” reinforcing that we’re not built to navigate life alone.   Listeners are also treated to an uplifting conversation with gospel artist Juanita Contee, who discusses her new single “I Know Who I Am”—a declaration of identity and spiritual confidence. Contee explains that the song is rooted in knowing who God is first so believers can stand firmly in who He says they are. Her release has already been met with enthusiastic response as she steps boldly into her solo calling after years of contributing background vocals for major gospel artists. Rounding out the show, Erica and Cheryl pay tribute to Ron Kenoly, the pioneering worship leader behind classics like Ancient of Days, who recently passed away at 81. Known worldwide for shaping modern congregational worship, Kenoly’s ministry influenced millions and produced the fastest‑selling worship album of its era, Lift Him Up (1992).

Today’s episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell is rich with inspiration, healing, and joyful testimony. Christian artist JOKIA joins Erica to share the heart behind her upbeat new single “So Happy,” a song rooted in choosing joy after years of personal struggle, including infertility and deep emotional trials. Our web search reveals that JOKIA’s broader musical journey reflects themes of healing and renewal—her work often springs from real-life battles like pregnancy loss, later transformed into testimony through music. She’s a two-time Billboard #1 artist known for blending gospel, R&B, and Christian contemporary music, and her new season includes acting roles, chart-topping releases, and a commitment to inspiring others through faith and mental‑health advocacy.   The episode also highlights two powerful faith themes from Scripture and daily life. First, the E&G True Hollywood Bible Story revisits Naaman in 2 Kings 5, reminding listeners that even a mighty commander needed humility and obedience to receive God’s healing. Historical and Bible commentary expand Naaman’s significance—he was a highly honored military leader whose leprosy overshadowed his accomplishments, a condition that symbolized deep need for divine intervention and set the stage for God’s restorative power through the prophet Elisha. Then Erica’s Ericaism dives into “Jealous of Someone Else’s Grace,” urging believers not to resent the favor God gives others. This aligns with Christian teachings on overcoming jealousy through gratitude, trust in God’s timing, and reframing negative emotions—a principle strongly emphasized across modern Christian resources. Together with birthday shoutouts, joys & concerns, and Willie Jolley’s reminder that “wealthy love builds a home,” the episode encourages listeners to walk in joy, release comparison, and trust God through every season.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell delivers a powerful blend of faith, reflection, and purpose. In the Faith Walk, Erica unpacks the striking truth that “lions don’t eat fruit”—a biological reality confirmed by animal science, since lions are obligate carnivores lacking the enzymes needed to digest plant matter. Using this as a spiritual metaphor, she challenges listeners to embody the fruit of the Spirit, noting that lions—symbolic of trials and spiritual attacks—devour only flesh, not fruit. This theme sets the tone for the show’s call to live from a place of spiritual discipline rather than emotional impulse.   The episode continues with a compelling interview featuring award‑winning composer and social‑justice creative Nolan Williams Jr., who debuts “Just Like Selma”—a modern civil‑rights hymn created for Black History Month.

In today’s episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell, the team dove deep into three standout conversations that blended faith, storytelling, and uplifting inspiration. Erica’s Faith Walk explored the idea of spiritual atmosphere in the home—asking listeners if their households carry peace, rest, and God’s presence. This teaching echoes broader Christian principles on shaping spiritually grounded homes through prayer, kindness, and intentional habits that foster unity and love. The show then rolled into a hilarious and heartfelt E&G True Hollywood Bible Story: Jonah and the Whale, retelling Jonah’s resistance, stormy detour, and redemption inside the great fish. The biblical narrative is widely known not only for Jonah’s time in the fish, but also for its deeper themes of repentance, divine mercy, and transformation—historically set during Israel’s post‑exilic wrestling with obedience and God’s compassion for all people.   The episode also featured a lively conversation with actress Zing Ashford, star of the upcoming Lifetime film Be Happy, executive‑produced by Mary J. Blige. The movie follows Val, a woman navigating empty-nest life, who travels to New Orleans to support her pregnant daughter Kayla—played by Zing—and unexpectedly reawakens her long‑buried passions and sense of purpose. The film highlights themes of identity, healing, and rediscovery, mirroring Zing’s reflections on mother‑daughter bonds and personal growth; it premieres February 7 as part of Blige’s expanding creative collaboration with Lifetime. Alongside these central topics, the show delivered birthday shoutouts, trending news, sports, and joyful moments from the Get Up Church community.   Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today’s episode of Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell centered on service, inspiration, and soul‑lifting music. Erica’s Erica-ism, “Serving Is the Way,” encouraged listeners to embody Christlike compassion by intentionally helping others—whether offering resources to the homeless, volunteering in church, or simply making kindness a lifestyle. This aligns with her past teachings on choosing active commitment over passive faith, echoing her broader message about living with purpose and intention. The show also spotlighted a powerful interview with Mariah Carey, celebrating her new gospel‑infused single “Jesus I Do” featuring the legendary Clark Sisters—a collaboration years in the making, recorded in Atlanta and praised for its uplifting message and rich vocal harmonies.   The Love Talk of the day explored the art of giving good gifts, urging listeners to offer presents that reflect genuine attention to a loved one’s needs rather than defaulting to generic choices. This principle mirrors established research showing that thoughtful, recipient‑focused gifts build stronger trust and emotional connection than flashy or convenient ones. Throughout the episode, the team also covered news updates, Faith Walk reflections on David’s rejection, health encouragement from Dr. Willie Jolly, and trending entertainment stories—rounding out a show filled with joy, spirituality, and practical wisdom for everyday life.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
