  • I continue to listen, every day, for years. Thank you! 🙏

    So appreciate this brief, daily overview, your Christian perspective and varied reporting! To God be the Glory! For years I’ve started the day by listening & praying, in combo w/ a couple other podcasts for diff news & view points. Largely, this pod is politically neutral -when possible- in a media world in which that is rare! Sadly, even in Christian-based sources.🙏

    I enjoy listening to this podcast about every morning, I’m a pastor and enjoy getting the news through the Christian perspective, however I was recently concerned about a comment made on the January 9th episode. The comment made that Christian’s were permitted to consume alcohol but not to be drunk. I believe the Bible teaches us very clearly that consuming alcohol in any way is wrong! Pro. 23:29-35, also Jesus did not drink alcoholic wine…the grapes were made into juice which they called wine. ... more
