Our world is in crisis, but there is hope. Dr. Michael Youssef, host of the radio program, Leading The Way, said you can find it in a revived Church.

James Cruz served 21 years of a 40-year sentence imposed after he committed a drug offense when he was just a teenager. During his time in prison, he became a devout Christian, led Bible studies and was involved in prison ministry, mentored other inmates, and truly earned this opportunity to restart his life. In this episode, James meets one of our prayer volunteers Connie who had been praying for James for years as he would submit prayer requests to the ministry periodically.

Listeners who tune in to Hope In The Night quickly realize the program is one of a kind. The unique intimacy of late-night radio gives listeners the opportunity of having someone compassionate and wise speak directly into their lives. As June helps the callers personally, she shares God’s heart and guidance on topics like alcohol and drug abuse, anger, divorce, reconciliation, abortion, domestic violence, loneliness, self-worth, forgiveness, and more. There are no in-studio guests on Hope In The Night − just June Hunt and her announcer/co-host. The “guests” on this program are the callers, who are treated with care and respect. June’s compassionate and patient approach makes a lasting impact on the callers, giving them greater understanding of God’s Word and providing solutions that help transform their lives.

As Christians, we know someday we will leave our familiar country and be united with God in heaven. And yet many of us know very little about this place called heaven. In his bestselling book, A Place Called Heaven, Dr. Robert Jeffress opened the Scriptures to answer ten fascinating questions about heaven. Now he offers this devotional to help us think about heaven on a daily basis and put into practice the heavenly qualities of truth, honor, righteousness, purity, loveliness, character, excellence, and praise. A Place Called Heaven Devotional includes 100 devotions to elevate your thinking from earthbound concerns to heaven-bound comforts. Each devotional includes reflection questions and a closing prayer to assist you in seeking the things above. The beautiful packaging makes this a perfect gift for anyone who longs for biblical insight and a daily reminder of the hope of heaven.

As we approach a new election, we want to take this time to pray for our country and for our leaders as we not only fight this battle with the COVID-19 pandemic but also this battle of division. Today, we remember Jesus' call for unity within the church as we move forward in what God called us to do. Please join us in prayer.
