Mornings with Jeff & Rebecca

Do you have a favorite bible verse? It may be one that you hold on to in hard times, or a promise you cling to when you need encouragement. For Jeremy it is a verse that reminds him of how the light of Christ is meant to be seen as well as heard.

Caryn and her mother took a 90-minute road trip to a Texas quilt shop and didn't even go in! Then they went back the next day! Here's why:

Who taught you to pray? Jeremy's Thanksgiving memory is how he learned to pray from his grandfather. 

Do you love mac and cheese? For one woman, mac and cheese lead to an unexpected blessing?

What do you do when you are not feeling your faith? 

90% of electrical problems are caused by loose connections. In life, our connection to the Lord has a direct impact on how we handle problems.

A town in Alaska won't see the sun again until January 23. When it finally rises, they celebrate. It reminded me of Isaiah 9:2 — the Light always returns, and with it, joy.

An AI generated song just hit number one on the country charts. Impressive, but still artificial. It reminded me how different God is. His Word, His Son, His Spirit… all truth, all real, always trustworthy.

I tried helping our son Zach dress for his new real estate job by sending him a few Pinterest ideas… which somehow turned into me getting a full feed of stylish guys who look way more put together than I do. Now I'm wondering if I'm the one who needs a wardrobe upgrade.

Sharing your faith can feel uncomfortable. I get it. Paul did too. His prayer in Ephesians 6:19–20 encourages me to ask God for the right words and the courage to speak them. The gospel is worth it, even when it stretches us.

A 13-year-old in Texas mowed lawns, saved up, and traded his Xbox… to buy his mom a car. Talk about raising a good one!

The same God who painted the skies with color calls us out of darkness and into His light. What a reminder of His protection and grace.

Kandi and her kids are turning their family's change of Thanksgiving plans into an act of kindness for truckers on the road.

Live salty today! Shine God's love wherever you go, and watch how He uses it to influence the world around you.

I may have lost my phone, but I found some reasons to be thankful. Even the frustrating days have little blessings hiding in them.

Some things can wait, but obedience to God shouldn't be one of them. What could you say “yes” to today instead of “later”?

A dad and his kids started a tiny food pantry with one folding table, a storage bin, and a couple of coolers, and now it's feeding people every day. You never know how far one simple act can go! 

Sometimes God asks us to take a step of faith that doesn't make sense in the moment. We're called to do what He's asked of us, and trust Him to handle the rest.

Ten Baylor players were baptized this week... by their teammates. Such a sweet picture of faith and friendship!

I'm starting to ask myself more often: “Is this bringing me closer to Jesus?” And if the answer is no, maybe something needs to shift.

This melted me! A little KCBI listener has a cowboy hat that has been passed down through four generations... from his “Great Poppy in heaven” all the way to him.

You don't need to be everything to everyone. God made you for something specific. And He prepared you for today.

It's okay to hold more than one feeling at once. Grief and joy can sit right next to each other… and God is present in both.

I'm learning that sometimes the very problems I wish would disappear are the places God grows my faith the most.

A hunter was lost in the Sierra National Forest for three weeks, and when he prayed, “Lord, you've got to send somebody”… he looked up and saw headlights. God still answers.

If you need something to hold onto today, pick one verse and speak it like it's true about you. God's Word isn't just for reading... it's for living.

Okay Texas friends: this Sunday is Texas State Parks Day! Which means… free entry to all 89 state parks.Dinosaur tracks? Sand dune sledding?? Quiet trails and pretty trees??? Yes. Let's go.

Thinking about what we leave behind one day…More than money or things, our faith is something that can shape generations.

A monkey in a diaper running loose in a Plano store? Just another day in the wild world of fall shopping. 

A hard heart forgets what matters most to God: people. Today, let's ask Him to soften our hearts and make us more like Jesus.

A family got stranded on the highway in Arkansas, and instead of just pointing them in the right direction, the officer drove them to a hotel and paid for the room himself.AND he made their son and their dog honorary officers.More of this, please.

Have you ever thought of yourself as gifted? God has. He says He's placed something purposeful in you. 

A family joked that their mom would be late to her own funeral… and she actually was. The hearse got locked with the keys inside and everyone had to wait. Somehow, that little moment brought so much joy to a really heavy day. 

Shopping for a new car has me thinking… no matter how much you clean up the old car, it's still an old car. I used to think following Jesus was like that: just there to clean me up. But what He really does is make us new.

A group steals millions in jewels from the Louvre using a ladder lift… and then the lift company said, “Well, that's great advertising!”

You know that feeling when you're instantly frustrated…and then a few minutes later, you realize you could've handled it better? Yeah, that was me this week. I'm grateful God doesn't meet me with frustration when I mess up. He meets me with mercy.

If you ever see me eating alone, trust me - I'm not lonely. I'm living my best life.

It's amazing how quickly you recognize the voice of someone you spend every day with. Jesus says His sheep know His voice. The more time we spend with Him, the easier it is to notice when something isn't Him.

Have you ever gone out for one thing and come home with a pet? One listener told us she smuggled a kitten on a plane in her pocket… and somehow got away with it!

Sometimes it feels like we're waiting on God... but what if He's actually waiting on us? Maybe it's time to stop asking for direction and start walking in the one He's already given.
