Mornings with Jeff & Rebecca

We've all left a voicemail and wished we could delete it the second we hit “end.” One went hilariously wrong... and it has everyone laughing.

What if your kindness today is the very thing someone else needs? Mark 12 reminds us to love God with all our strength... and love our neighbor, too.

Most kids save for toys or candy… this 7-year-old is saving for a Lamborghini. His neighbors helped make his dream come true with a driveway full of supercars. 

It's easy to put off forgiveness. But the longer we wait, the heavier it gets. Colossians 3:13 reminds us to forgive as the Lord forgave us. 

Some moms get Christmas card photos with everyone in sweaters. Kurt's mom? She's getting one with a giant cow.

How many times this week have you asked, “Are you ready?” Getting out the door, getting kids to school, making it to church. But God also calls us to “get ready”... to prepare our hearts for His purpose.

Advice isn't always easy to accept… But a lot of times, it's exactly what we need.

A flight delay turned into a once-in-a-lifetime jazz concert, thanks to Dave Koz and his band! ✈️

Before I point out the speck in someone's eye, I need to deal with the plank in mine.

When Morgan said yes, nature decided to celebrate too!

When life gets expensive, generosity can feel optional. But God's generosity toward us didn't come when it was easy or convenient — and we can trust that when we give, He multiplies our blessings.

At some high schools in Oklahoma, seniors have been cheering on freshmen to “kiss your mom goodbye” at drop-off. Honestly, one of the sweetest traditions around! 

Watching our kids grow up means watching them become more independent — but in our walk with Christ, independence isn't the goal. As Jesus said in John 15:5, He's the vine and we're the branches, and apart from Him we can do nothing.

Our son Tyler got his first tip at his job at the grocery store, and while he was thrilled, he didn't know how to show his gratitude in the moment. It reminded me that when people don't respond the way I expect, I can choose grace — because their hearts may be more thankful than I realize! 

Imagine being the bride, waiting to walk down the aisle, and your dad just… goes without you. That's exactly what happened at this wedding in Austin.

I caught myself complaining about things that didn't go the way I pictured... and almost missed the best part. God reminded me through 2 Kings 5 that His process is worth trusting.

Car rides with kids are never boring. One minute you're talking about cheese, the next they're explaining why trees are “shivering” in the wind.

Not all advice is good advice. James 3:17 gives God's checklist: pure, peace-loving, considerate, merciful, sincere. If it fits, it's from Him.

Texas shelters are full of pets ready to be loved.. and now's the perfect time to bring one home. Through the end of the month, dozens of shelters are waiving or reducing adoption fees for “Clear the Shelters.”

Maybe you've felt like you missed it... like God called and you didn't answer in time. But here's the truth: now is the day of salvation. Your chance is still right in front of you.

Breaking news: under-eye bags are now fashionable. Gen Z is calling it "tired girl makeup." I call it "Tuesday."

I've got alerts for just about everything - doorbell, bank account, even my car. But Proverbs says above all else guard your heart… which has me thinking about the “alerts” I've got set there.

Somebody pranked a local burger place with a huge $400+ order and never picked it up. Instead of tossing it, they donated all that food to a women's shelter... and later that day, someone came in and quietly paid the whole bill. God really can turn a bad thing into a blessing.

Back-to-school week is here, and it's wild how fast kids grow up - but we still see “our little kids.” I think God sees us the same way... no matter how much we change, we're always His children.

Some people name their vehicles for fun. Jeff named his truck because God saved his life. He calls it Twister.

You've probably had a chipped windshield before. I had one recently too, and when I mentioned it on the air, a listener shared a story that stuck with me. It's about windshields, yes… but even more about how we sometimes see people.

A mysterious illness almost took down a couple in their 60s… until they discovered the real culprit. It wasn't anything serious, but it was tragic in its own way!

Some moments in life are so overwhelming, you don't even know how to pray. The good news? You're not alone in that. Romans 8:26 says the Spirit prays for us with “wordless groans” when we don't have the words.

A man nearly closed his restaurant to stay by his wife's side in the hospital… until a group of teenagers stepped in and kept it running on their own. 

It's wild how much truth God packs into just a few words. Like when He says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart.” Simple, but it changes how I see everything.

There's a baby hippo named Mars who did not want to get out of the pool… until his mom gave him the mom stare. And he listened. Immediately. I guess it's universal.

I read a quote that said, “You don't want to be the richest person in the graveyard,” and it really made me think: am I investing in things that actually matter to God? 

Our neighbor's cat climbed a tree to get a bird the other day. I got him down, but the bird he was bothering kept dive-bombing like the problem wasn't already handled... and I realized, I do that with God too. 

Have you ever been at the self-checkout when it freezes and says, "Help is on the way"? It makes me think of something Jesus promised in John 14: that He'd send the Holy Spirit to help us.

My friend Suzanne has over 50 pairs of magnetic eyeglass frames, and she keeps them all on her fridge. Yep, just walks over in the morning and picks out her glasses for the day like it's an accessory wall. A little odd… but also kind of brilliant.

When was the last time you cleaned your vacuum? I did recently, and it got me thinking... God's Word is a lot like the filter. It keeps the junk from getting into the parts that matter most.

You know that feeling like you look suspicious even though you're not doing anything wrong? That was me at the grocery store with a bag of cookies. 

Sometimes life just doesn't make sense. But even when things feel shaky, my faith pulls me back to what I do know: Jesus is still good.

Tarantula mating season is officially here in Texas… and I have so many feelings about it. If one of our cats brings a tarantula into the house, we're moving. End of story.

It's hard to let go of something you've been depending on: your routine, your plan, your sense of control. But following Jesus sometimes means dropping what's familiar to step into something better.

One of the Camp Mystic flood survivors rewrote the song “Hallelujah” to honor the lives lost, and it's absolutely beautiful. She shared it on TV… and got a surprise visit from her favorite artist, Lauren Daigle.

The verse in Proverbs about “fearing the Lord” used to sound a little intense to me, until I realized it's really about trusting God first... and there's a promise that comes with it.
