Are you carrying something you were never meant to carry alone? This week’s message, Come and Receive, explores the simple but life-changing invitation at the center of the Christian faith. The Bible teaches that we have all sinned and fallen short — but God made a way through Jesus. Instead of striving to earn salvation, Jesus invites us to come and receive it. If you’re feeling weary, spiritually thirsty, or unsure how to begin a relationship with Christ, this message walks clearly through what Scripture says about sin, grace, eternal life, and how to respond to Jesus’ invitation. Join us as we look at Romans 3, Matthew 11, John 7, and Revelation 22 and discover the rest, forgiveness, and living water only Jesus gives. #ComeToJesus #Salvation #Jesus #Faith #ChurchOnline #BibleTeaching NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

The culture is loud.But Jesus is still clear.In a world of outrage, hot takes, comment sections, political tension, and constant debate… the question isn't will you engage culture?The question is how you'll engage it.In Part 3 of our 4-week series Culture Shocked, Pastor Jacob walks through a powerful moment in the book of Daniel that shows us a better way:Win PEOPLE — not arguments.When King Nebuchadnezzar was anxious and demanding answers, Daniel had an opportunity to prove he was right… to embarrass the king… to flex spiritually.Instead, he solved a problem.He added value.He pointed to God.Daniel shows us that influence grows when you help people — and shrinks when you just try to win debates.This message will challenge you to examine how you respond when culture pushes back… and call you to live with conviction and compassion.This series isn't about compromising truth.It's about carrying truth in a way that wins hearts.If you've ever struggled with speaking up without becoming harsh…standing firm without becoming arrogant…or loving people who disagree with you…This message is for you.

After an offseason filled with uncertainty surrounding the 2026 status of Lane Johnson and Landon Dickerson, clarity has finally arrived. Reports now indicate that both offensive linemen will return in 2026 — a massive boost for the Philadelphia Eagles. The WIP Afternoon Show reacts to the exciting news and what it means for the Eagles' outlook moving forward.

On today's episode of the WIP Midday Show, the crew debates whether the Bryce Harper should receive a contract extension with the Philadelphia Phillies, and whether a new deal would act as a financial apology after Dave Dombrowski said Harper is “no longer elite.” The conversation then turns to the Lane Johnson confirming he'll return for a 14th NFL season and Jalen Hurts being ranked the 75th best quarterback of all time, sparking debate over legacy and respect.

The show continues with Landon Dickerson shutting down retirement rumors and confirming his return in 2026, giving the Eagles more long-term stability in the trenches. The focus then shifts to the Sixers with a Joel Embiid injury update and what it means for the team's short-term plans and long-term outlook. The crew discusses timelines, expectations, and how the franchise should manage Embiid's health moving forward.

How does revival last beyond a single generation? In this message, Pastor John S. Dickerson unpacks how God has always worked through intentional faith passed from one generation to the next. From Scripture and church history, you’ll see why revival continues when believers invest in children, students, and young adults—and why it fades when they don’t. This sermon will help you understand: • Why God consistently uses young people in movements of renewal • What Scripture calls adults and churches to do for the next generation • How everyday faithfulness shapes lasting spiritual impact • Why revival is sustained through intentional discipleship, not just moments This message is especially meaningful for parents, grandparents, leaders, and anyone who cares about the future of the Church and the faith of the next generation. #Revival #NextGeneration #ChristianFaith #SpiritualLegacy NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

Throughout US history, only three Black women—Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun, and Kamala Harris—have given successfully recognized bids for the office of president of the United States. In A Black Woman for President: Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun, and Kamala Harris(UP of Mississippi) author Dianna N. Watkins-Dickerson uses womanist rhetorical criticism to analyze the presidential announcement speeches of Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm, Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun, and then-Senator Kamala Harris. In close readings of each candidate's speeches, Watkins-Dickerson defines womanist rhetorical theory and its efficacy for researching Black female voices in the field of communication in general, and the presidential announcement speeches of Black women, specifically. Beginning with Shirley Chisholm's historic 1972 campaign as the first Black woman to run a viable campaign for the US presidency, the volume analyzes how Chisholm's speech set a precedent for future generations of Black women in politics by boldly asserting her right to lead, despite the multiple barriers of race and gender. The study then moves to Carol Moseley Braun's 2004 presidential announcement, exploring how Braun's speech navigated the intersections of identity, representation, and political ambition during a time when Black women in the Senate were still a rarity. Finally, the analysis culminates with Kamala Harris's 2020 presidential bid, focusing on how her rhetoric blended elements of Black feminist resistance and national unity in an era of heightened political and racial division. The volume highlights the ways in which Chisholm, Braun, and Harris drew upon their lived experiences and cultural legacies to construct powerful, transformative narratives and argues that their speeches not only expanded the boundaries of political discourse but also reimagined the possibilities for leadership in America. Ultimately, this study provides a rich, interdisciplinary framework for understanding how Black women have reshaped the political landscape through the power of their words. You can find Dianna N.

What would change if you truly saw people the way Jesus sees them? In this week’s message from our Revival series, Pastor John S. Dickerson calls us back to the heart of God for those who are far from Him. Throughout Scripture, revival begins when God’s people are moved with compassion for the lost and are willing to act with courage, humility, and urgency. This message walks through biblical examples, real stories, and Jesus’ own words to help us recognize the spiritual needs around us and respond with love and obedience. You will be encouraged to see how God works through everyday believers, empowered by the Holy Spirit, to bring hope, salvation, and transformation through simple acts of faithfulness. This sermon also connects with our Revival devotional and group study resources, helping individuals and groups take practical steps toward prayer, bold conversations, and inviting others to encounter Jesus. “The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Luke 19:10 #ConnectionPointeChurch #Revival #PastorJohnDickerson NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

When life gets heavy, when decisions get hard, when stress piles up—prayer often becomes our last resort instead of our first response.We pray after we worry.We pray after we try to fix it ourselves.We pray when we're already exhausted.But prayer shouldn't be our last resort when everything falls apart; it should be our first response before anything else begins.What if this year was different?What if, before the pressure… before the panic… before the plans… we prayed first?This series is about learning how prayer can become the foundation of our everyday lives—not just something we do in emergencies, but something that shapes our decisions, our relationships, our peace, and our trust in God.If you're walking into the new year with questions…If you're carrying stress, fear, or uncertainty…If you're asking God for direction, healing, or clarity…This series is for you.

The American middle class didn't disappear by accident—it was dismantled by design. In this episode of The Electorette, host Jen Taylor-Skinner is joined by Professor A. Mechele Dickerson, author of Middle-Class New Deal: Restoring Upward Mobility and the American Dream, for a clear-eyed conversation about how deliberate public policy once built a strong middle class—and how decades of political neglect slowly unraveled it. Dickerson explains why the middle class exists at all, how housing policy, labor protections, education, and debt once worked together to create upward mobility, and what changed beginning in the 1980s. We also discuss why conversations about the middle class so often erase race—and how ignoring systemic inequality ultimately weakens the entire economy. There's a personal thread woven throughout this conversation as well: both Dickerson and Taylor-Skinner grew up in Memphis and even attended the same middle school, a shared history that mirrors many of the book's core themes around affordable housing, public education, and economic opportunity. This is a grounded, urgent conversation about what Americans have lost—and the open question of whether a new middle-class deal is still possible if the collective political will can be summoned.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for January 28th Publish Date:  January 28th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, January 28th and Happy Birthday to Jermaine Dye I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Local student Mathletes to compete in Cobb County Math Contest Support Cobb law enforcement and get a state tax credit Lawmakers push transparency in school board public comments All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 9 STORY 1: Local student Mathletes to compete in Cobb County Math Contest Cobb County’s middle school math whizzes are gearing up for the local MATHCOUNTS competition on Feb. 28 at Marietta High School. Organized by the Cobb County Chapter of the Georgia Society of Professional Engineers, the event will feature teams from Dickerson, Dodgen, and Hightower Trail middle schools. These students have been prepping since fall—hours of practice, problem-solving, and probably a few late-night algebra sessions. The competition includes both individual and team rounds, with topics like geometry, probability, and statistics. Oh, and there’s a fast-paced oral round too—no pressure, right? Winners will snag prizes and move on to the state finals on March 9 in Buford. MATHCOUNTS, a national program, aims to spark a love for math in middle schoolers—because let’s face it, this is the age where kids either embrace math or start running from it. With 50,000 students competing nationwide this year, it’s a big deal. For details, check out www.mathcounts.org. STORY 2: Support Cobb law enforcement and get a state tax credit Tax season is here, and if you live in Cobb County, there’s a way to support local law enforcement and get a state income tax credit. Thanks to the 2022 LESS Crime Act (short for Law Enforcement Strategic Support Act), Georgia taxpayers can donate to approved public safety foundations and get a dollar-for-dollar credit on their state taxes. Here’s the deal: individuals can donate up to $5,000, couples filing jointly can give $10,000, and corporations can contribute up to 75% of their state tax liability. Statewide, there’s a $75 million cap, and each foundation can accept up to $5 million annually. The process? Register with the Georgia Tax Center, wait for approval, and send your donation within 60 days. Funds go toward training, equipment, officer wellness, and community programs. In Cobb, you can donate to: Cobb Sheriff’s Foundation Acworth Police Community Foundation Cobb County Public Safety Foundation Kennesaw Public Safety Foundation Marietta Police Foundation For links and details, visit their websites. STORY 3: Lawmakers push transparency in school board public comments  Cobb County lawmakers are pushing for more transparency in school board meetings with House Bill 989, which would require public comments to be broadcast or recorded if the rest of the meeting is aired. Rep. David Wilkerson said it’s about consistency: “If you’re showing the meeting, show all of it. Don’t cut out the tough parts.” The bill comes after Cobb’s school board stopped broadcasting public comments last year, sparking backlash from parents and lawmakers. Critics called it censorship; the board cited liability concerns. Rep. Solomon Adesanya said public comments are crucial for oversight: “If you only hear one side, you control the narrative.” The bill has bipartisan support, with Rep. Jordan Ridley also signing on. “Transparency matters,” he said. “If you’re broadcasting, show the good, bad, and everything in between.” Meanwhile, Ridley floated the idea of an independent audit for Cobb schools, similar to one he championed in Cherokee County. Cobb school board Chair Randy Scamihorn defended the district, saying claims of a lack of transparency are “absolutely false.” Still, he invited lawmakers to review their processes, adding, “No organization is perfect.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: INGLES 9 STORY 4: Cobb opens $24M joint police, sheriff firing range Cobb County just unveiled its shiny new $24 million firing range, and let’s just say—it’s a game-changer. Sheriff Craig Owens and Police Chief Dan Ferrell cut the ribbon Friday morning, joined by the Board of Commissioners, a crowd of officers, and deputies. The 65,000-square-foot facility, located next to the Public Safety Training Academy in Austell, replaces the old outdoor range that had been around for over 30 years. That one? It had a strict 8 p.m. curfew because of nearby neighborhoods. Now? Training can happen 24/7. The range features three separate areas, including a 100-yard precision range, and a high-tech 360-degree targeting system for realistic drills. Officers can train in low-light, no-light, and even less-lethal scenarios. Paid for with SPLOST funds, the range is a long-term investment in public safety—and a big win for Cobb County. STORY 5: Northwest Georgia voters to head to polls March 10 for federal and, now, state election Northwest Georgia voters are in for a political doubleheader on March 10. Not only will they pick a new state senator, but they’ll also decide if the former holder of that Senate seat, Colton Moore, should head to Congress. Here’s the backstory: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene resigned in January with a year left in her U.S. House term, triggering a special election for District 14. Moore, who represented Senate District 53 (Catoosa, Chattooga, Dade, Walker, and part of Floyd counties), stepped down mid-January to join the crowded race for Greene’s seat—22 candidates, to be exact. Qualifying for Moore’s old Senate seat runs Jan. 29 to Feb. 2. Voter registration closes Feb. 9, with early voting starting Feb. 16. If no one wins outright, expect a runoff on April 7. Buckle up, northwest Georgia—it’s going to be a busy ballot. Break: STORY 6: Chris Carr talks public safety in Cobb Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr didn’t hold back when he spoke to the Cobb County Republican Women’s Club on Friday. Public safety, he said, isn’t just about stopping crime—it’s about supporting law enforcement, tackling mental health, and improving education. And now, as a candidate for governor, he’s making his case. Carr highlighted his record: creating units to fight human trafficking, gangs, opioids, and organized retail crime. “Keeping people safe is the most basic job of government,” he said. “If families don’t feel safe, we’ve failed.” He shared staggering numbers—over 200 children rescued from trafficking, 115 gang members convicted—and warned about the fentanyl crisis, calling it a “war” fueled by Mexican cartels. His office recently seized 15 pounds of the drug, enough to kill millions. On education, he stressed the importance of literacy by third grade and slammed “woke progressivism” in schools. “Our kids aren’t social experiments,” he said. “Schools should teach reading, writing, and math—not radical ideology.” Mental health? Another priority. Carr called for more facilities statewide, saying jails shouldn’t double as treatment centers. He also floated limiting phones in high schools, blaming social media for worsening students’ mental health. When asked about gambling, Carr stood firm against casino betting, citing addiction concerns. On minors accessing pornography, he tied it to human trafficking and expressed fears about AI being used to exploit kids. Former Cobb GOP Chair Rose Wing praised Carr’s tough stance on drug cartels and said she believes he’d make a “great governor.” STORY 7: Woodstock native Bolt named assistant golf coach at KSU  Abigail Bolt, a former Woodstock High School star, is heading back to familiar turf—this time as the new assistant women’s golf coach at Kennesaw State. Owls head coach Ket Vanderpool, who worked with Bolt for three seasons at Georgia State, made the announcement Friday. Bolt, who played collegiate golf at Appalachian State from 2017-21, brings a mix of coaching chops and on-course expertise. At Georgia State, she helped lead the team to nine top-five finishes and four tournament wins. Before that? She honed her skills at Towne Lake Hills Golf Club, running junior clinics and managing tournaments. As a player, Bolt was a standout at Appalachian State, earning MVP honors her senior year and finishing with a 77.81 stroke average. Since graduating in 2021, she’s stayed active in the game, competing in amateur events and continuing to build her career in golf. We’ll have closing comments after this.

An expansive policy blueprint for meaningfully expanding the middle class for the first time in a century The US middle class was a product of state and federal policies enacted in the wake of the Great Depression. But since the 1980s, lawmakers have undermined what they once built, shredding the social safety net and instituting laws that virtually guarantee downward mobility for all but the most privileged. How can we restore what has been lost? Rigorous and highly readable, The Middle-Class New Deal: Restoring Upward Mobility and the American Dream (U California Press, 2026) breaks down the policies that have decimated working families and proposes reforms to reverse this trend. As Mechele Dickerson shows, part of the problem is that politicians disingenuously conflate the middle class with the "White lower rich." Such propaganda hides how state and federal lawmakers consistently favor education, labor, housing, and consumer-credit laws that erode the bank accounts of lower- and middle-income people--especially those who are not White and don't have college degrees. Weaving together the latest research with the personal stories of Americans struggling to make ends meet, Dickerson provides a clarion call for political leaders to enact a bold agenda like the one that created the middle class almost a century ago. A. Mechele Dickerson is the Arthur L. Moller Chair in Bankruptcy and Practice and University Distinguished Teaching Professor at University of Texas School of Law. Professor Dickerson is a nationally recognized scholar on financial vulnerability, consumer debt, housing affordability, and racial and economic disparities. She regularly teaches Remedies and Federal Civil Procedure at the School of Law, has taught a class on civil procedural disputes that arose between the two Trump presidencies, and has taught numerous cross-listed interdisciplinary graduate-level courses on the American middle-class and the COVID pandemic.
