In hour 1, protests have began in the Saint Louis area, but they have been only peaceful so far. However, we are expecting protests to get less peaceful over the weekend. We also hear today's national anthem from Carrie Underwood! Marc & Kim dive into the biggest stories of the day in The Shortlist, as well as discussing the fact that these protestors have some sort of funding to put them where they're at. What does AI mean? The FDA is using AI in a new way, but is facing some pushback from employees as well as the community. The FDA assures the community that this is something that will be a good thing. There has been an ongoing issue in the Francis Howell school district. A female student is scared to use the bathroom because a biological male is using the restroom. How is this allowed? In hour 2, the 'no kings' protest has been given a new nickname. They are calling it "the National Day of Defiance." Marc & Kim dive into the biggest stories of the day in The Shortlist. Law enforcement continue to be attacked in Los Angeles, but a fed-up citizen has had enough and decides to stand up to one of them.

The new trend when celebrities win an award, is for them to call out the injustice of the country and of President Trump instead of thanking people and their fans.

Katy Jeter recently spoke with Terry and Beverly Acton of Blue Springs, Nebraska, about the upcoming Cattlemen's Ball, scheduled for June 6-7, 2025.  Their conversation covered the event's location, how to purchase tickets, and the personal significance of the Cattlemen's Ball for the Actons.

While Missouri lawmakers approved $577-million in funding last year to pave the way for I-44 expansion in Springfield, Joplin and Rolla, the state lacks the billions of dollars it needs to expand heavily-traveled I-44 from Joplin to St. Louis. Missouri lawmakers approved $2.8 billion in funding in 2023 to rebuild and expand I-70 from Wentzville to Blue Springs. House Majority Floor Leader Alex Riley (R-Springfield) told 939 the Eagle News in January that it would take about $10-billion to expand and rebuild I-44 statewide. Leader Riley says rebuilding and expanding I-44 would be more expensive due to numerous hills and more bridges than I-70. U.S. Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Springfield), who serves on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." Congressman Burlison tells listeners that I-44 must be expanded, adding that it's his top priority. He describes it as a bottlebeck and is also concerned about safety issues. Congressman Burlison hopes to obtain federal funding for I-44 expansion. We also discussed the issue of tax cuts during the show. Congressman Burlison tells listeners that Congress must cut spending if they cut taxes:

Missouri's 2025 legislative session began a week-and-a-half ago, and new House Majority Floor Leader Alex Riley (R-Springfield) says the Missouri House will deliver on what he describes as big, conservative ideas that House Republican candidates campaigned on. Republicans have a 110-52 supermajority in the Missouri House again this year. Leader Riley joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri", telling listeners that he and House Speaker Jonathan Patterson (R-Lee's Summit) wanted to get off to a fast start. Leader Riley predicts the House will approve legislation this session that would provide tax cuts, protect the Second Amendment and legislation involving transgender issues. We also discussed heavily-traveled I-70 and I-44 during the interview. Missouri lawmakers has approved a $2.8 billion plan to rebuild and expand I-70 to six lanes across Missouri, from Wentzville to Blue Springs. They've also approved funding to three-lane I-44 in the Springfield, Joplin and Rolla areas. Leader Riley tells listeners that the state doesn't have the $10-billion to expand I-44 across the state, noting I-44 has numerous hill and more bridges that I-70:

Dear Johnny, My name is Terri and I have been a daycare provider for over 30 years in the Blue Springs community. I have watched over mostly children from area teachers and I love every minute of it. I've helped with kids from most major school districts on the Missouri side including Blue Springs, Independence, Lee's Summit, Grain Valley, Raytown, and the list goes on and on. I genuinely love these kids and try not to be the “typical daycare provider.” I fix homemade meals for the kids every day for breakfast and lunch, customize a preschool curriculum, go to the kids' birthday parties and help them celebrate birthdays and holidays to make them feel special. I really try to spare no expense for the kids I care for and look after every day. Over the last couple of years, my family and I have suffered some hardships. My husband, Larry, of nearly 30 years had to quit his job as a local mechanic due to the effects of his progressing Parkinson's Disease. In the Spring we suffered a small kitchen fire and insurance covered most of the repairs, but we did have some out of pocket expense to make sure we were running things safely and efficiently. Recently, the strong winds that came through town a couple of weeks ago and caused a branch to fall from a nearby tree and puncture a hole in the back porch roof. It also blew over a portion of our fence in the backyard. Insurance will cover the repairs, but I just can't afford the large deductible. Going to a single income family has already put financial strain us, but adding the fire, the roof and fence repair, and my husband's medical expenses makes it hard to stay afloat. I have started doing “DoorDash” after all the kids have been picked up just to try and make ends meet. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter and any help would be greatly appreciated. Merry Christmas. Sincerely, Terri Who helped: Gary, Jason, Shane, Tony, Sue, Gene, Allison, Jason, Consentino's How you helped: 3 months of mortgage payments, insurance deductible for roof repair, groceries

Rocha is the pastor of St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Church in Blue Springs, Missouri. Father played football in high school and college and began coaching.  He coached for 10 years on the high school level and 4 years on the college level. Father had his life planned out as a football coach and a happily married man with a wonderful wife and lots of children. But God had other plans for Richard. As he entered the seminary, Richard thought his sports days were over. But, once again, God had other plans. Today, Fr. Rocha is in his 19th season with the KC Royals and his 8th season with the KC Chiefs as team priest.  Along with his duties as a pastor of a large Catholic church, it's easy to see that Fr. Rocha is a busy man! He cheerfully serves our Lord in all these capacities and implores people to “ask God what His Will is for us every day!”

Missouri Governor Mike Parson (R), state lawmakers in both parties and state Department of Transportation (MoDOT) officials will be in Columbia Thursday morning for the groundbreaking ceremony for the $405-million project to rebuild and expand I-70 between Columbia and Kingdom City. The work will begin after the Fourth of July east of Columbia. Governor Parson signed bipartisan legislation in August in Columbia providing $2.8 billion to reconstruct and expand I-70 to six lanes from Blue Springs to Wentzville. The first phase will be the 20 miles from Columbia to Kingdom City. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri", telling listeners that this will be the largest public works project in Missouri history. Mr. Faughn also says the improvements are critical for America's national defense and for the economy.

We were created to worship our Creator, and our worship does not find its fulfillment in anything other than Jesus. Acts of worship can be costly. They can cost us time, money, and other resources, but these sacrifices fulfill the definition of worship: to give all of yourself for all of Jesus. 3 examples of acts of worship: 1.) Serving Jesus is an act of worship. 2.) Sitting with Jesus is an act of worship. 3.) Sacrificing for Jesus is an act of worship. Join Pastor Chad Glover as he shares examples of these acts of worship in the Bible and how we can live them out daily. ● Connect with us on Social Media ↴ Facebook: / abundantlifels Instagram: / abundantlifels ● Be a part of the Great Commission: https://livingproof.co/irresistible/ More information on our sermons: https://livingproof.co/sermons/ Do you want to see your life changed by Jesus?

In Episode 39, Micah hosts Rev. Jason Carle—America's most epic boss on record to have ever supervised Micah Chrisman himself at one point. Jason serves as the pastor of Overland Park Presbyterian Church, where he has dedicated the past 14 years of his ministry. Originally from northern Wisconsin, Rev. Carle's upbringing took an adventurous turn when, at the age of 11, his father, also a Presbyterian pastor, was called to serve as a missionary on the island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. The Carle family spent 5 years on the island before returning to the United States and settling in Blue Springs, MO. Today he is happily married to Melissa Carle, and together, they are blessed with two children, Roslyn (17) and Sam (15). In addition to his passion for open and inclusive ministry, Rev. Carle has a penchant for video games and intricate tabletop games with thick rule books. He embraces a wide range of interests, exploring activities often associated with the term "geek," and he takes pleasure in trying his hand at various geeky pursuits.

Apart from Christ, we are born spiritually stone dead. It's Christ who makes us spiritually alive—living stones! 1 Peter 2:5, “…you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” As living stones, we can worship God in 2 ways: 1.) We put His love on display through giving generously. 2.) We put His love on display through sharing the gospel openly. Jesus alone has the power to give us life. If the rocks could cry out His praises, they would never stop testifying about who Jesus is and what He has done. Join Pastor Phil Hopper as he shares how we can worship God by putting His love on display.

Arts organizations such as St. Louis' Prison Performing Arts have nearly eliminated recidivism for participants that continue after confinement in their Prison Performing Arts Alumni Theater Company. Through personal experience of going from nursing professor to drug addict, our speaker Julie Antonic will share how this arts organization transformed her life, as well as countless others across the country. The stigma of being an ex-felon creates huge barriers when felons return to their communities. When prisoners and ex-prisoners are given a voice, that platform can change everything. In Act I of Julie Antonic's life, she was a travel RN, an adjunct professor of nursing, and became an addict after being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. In Julie's current Act II of her life, she is an actress, playwright and spokesperson for Prison Performing Arts. She is an artist and co-owner of Altitude Video Production, which produces aerial cinematography for events, real estate and more. She recently did a talk at TEDxSt.Louis Women, and lives in Blue Springs, Missouri. There she is the secretary of the friendliest yacht club on the planet and sails a 52 year old sailboat with her wife.

Why should Christians be involved in government? Godly people engaged in government influence godly outcomes. Examples of Christians in government abound, including Joseph, Daniel, and Nehemiah, who brought godly outcomes even in ungodly governing systems. In Matthew 5:13, Jesus calls us to be the salt of the earth. Because the Church is no longer “salty,” our society is decaying morally and spiritually. How can Christians be the salt of the earth? By seeking first the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33). As Christians, our allegiance must first be to the Kingdom of God and the multi-ethnic family of God. If we seek the Kingdom of God first, we will think biblically, not merely politically. The Church needs to repent of political idolatry, compromise morally, and spiritual apathy. Only then will the Church again become “salty” – the moral conscience of society. Join Pastor Phil Hopper as he shares biblical examples of Christians in government and practical ways we can be “the salt of the earth” in politics. Don't forget to click the “bell” to SUBSCRIBE to get more videos like this to grow your faith! ● Connect with us on Social Media ↴Facebook: / abundantlifelsInstagram: / abundantlifels ● Connect with Pastor Phil ↴Facebook: / philhopperkcInstagram: / philhopper_kcWeb: https://livingproof.co/about-us/pasto...● Be a part of the Great Commission: https://livingproof.co/irresistible/ More information on our sermons: https://livingproof.co/sermons/Do you want to see your life changed by Jesus?

Matt Carter is the vice president of mobilization for Send Network, a partnership of people planting churches everywhere for everyone. Before joining Send Network, Matt founded The Austin Stone Community Church, which sent over 300 full-time missionaries to unreached people groups around the world during his time there.   The Great Commission is a call for all believers. Send Network exists to help believers fulfill the Great Commission by reaching cities with the Gospel, making disciples, and planting churches.   3 reasons why every believer should engage in the Great Commission:   1) Jesus commanded us to.  2) We have future brothers and sisters in Christ who have not heard the message.  3) Our generation has such a small window of time to make an impact on the Great Commission, and then it's over…   Join Matt Carter as he shares what God is doing through Send Network and encourages us to engage with Jesus' commands in the Great Commission.   Don't forget to click the “bell” to SUBSCRIBE to get more videos like this to grow your faith!   - Connect with us on Social Media ↴  Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/abundantlifels/  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/abundantlifels   - Connect with Pastor Phil ↴  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PhilHopperKC  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/philhopper_kc/  Web: https://livingproof.co/about-us/pastor-phil/   Be a part of the Great Commission: https://livingproof.co/irresistible/   More information on our sermons: https://livingproof.co/sermons/   Do you want to see your life changed by Jesus?
