This Week - July 12, 2026

The Power of His Name

Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
You know, a name is an interesting thing; it’s more than just a word. A name is a symbol of the person who bears it. The more acquainted I become with you, the more the seeing or hearing of your name will affect me. Now with that in mind, there is one name we frequently hear and speak as Christians that is more important than any other…

Solomon and the Soil

Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
Now I mentioned recently that Solomon became great and glorious because Solomon was good. But as did Saul and David before him, Solomon rebelled against the Lord in last years. He married many strange women of strange religion, and they turned his heart away from God to idolatry. Saul, David, and now Solomon all were beloved of the Lord…

Martha and Mary

Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
Have you ever noticed that there is a wonderful dynamic tension in this world of ours? – and ‘tension’s the right word. I mean, it’s good for us to be busy and under pressure to measure up, but at the same time we’re at high risk when we do so for feeling overwhelmed and under-qualified. Maybe you know the feeling. Happy and busy is…

Inside the Lines

Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
Some years ago I was driving a truck in Wyoming. It was a three-unit combination: a truck and two trailers, about 80 – 90 feet long. Early one summer morning I descended Tincup Pass into Star Valley, Wyoming. The sun was just cresting the mountains when I reached the valley floor, and the road began to level out and straighten. It – it…

Alma's Conversion

Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
In an age when human life is so little valued, and cheaply tossed aside like refuse, I ask, ‘what is a man worth?’ Of what value is a human life, a human soul? This story will illustrate.Alma was the son of a prophet. He had known the truth and felt the power of the word of God, but chose to fight it. His was not a gradual dwindling away…

Dates with Destiny

Broadcast Date: July 05, 2026
I care not for any theory that makes me an evolutionary end product, a random accident of nature, or some kind of mutated monkey. My friends, we are the children of God, born of love with purpose in our being. The day of our birth, our life’s mission, and the day of our death is [are] planned and prepared by our loving Father. And all of His designs are for our…

Hannah Hendee

Broadcast Date: July 05, 2026
Wisdom picks her battles in matters of principle and fights them fiercely. May I illustrate? October 16, 1780: A band of 300 Indians under the command of a British captain named Horton moved down the White River near South Royalton, Vermont, capturing, killing, and terrorizing the local inhabitants. The Hendee family was warned of the oncoming mobbers. The father…

The God of America

Broadcast Date: July 05, 2026
America "... is a choice land, ..." (1) It is a "... land of promise ..." (2) "... preserved for a righteous people." (3) The Lord has decreed that those who dwell thereon "... should serve him, the true and only God, or they should be swept off ..." (4) The God of America has kept his promise. There is much that is right and good in this nation, but there is…

George Washington

June 15, 1775: The American Colonies are at war with mother England. The Continental Congress votes unanimously and appoints one of its members to be commander-in-chief of the colonial army. Forty-three year old George Washington stood before them and said, “I beg it may be remembered by every gentleman in this room [that] I do not think myself equal to this command…

Nathan Hale

Broadcast Date: July 05, 2026
The spirit of sacrifice is the spirit of America. It has given us birth, and over 200 years of a long, prosperous, and free life. May I share just one example that typifies the sacrifice I speak of? In August of 1776 the British forces captured Long Island. General Washington desperately needed information on British positions and strength. He asked Lt. Colonel…
