Today is the day before our Spring SHARE begins, and we spent time praising God's power in our lives. We asked callers, "What reminds you of what you've been saved from?" One of our guests included Jed Coppenger. He is the lead pastor of First Baptist Church in Cumming, Georgia. He is also a speaker and author. We highlighted his book, "Fake Christianity: 10 Traps of an Inauthentic Faith", as we discussed the influence of counterfeit gospels in our culture. Then, we had Dr. Andy Bannister join us to discuss how to know the absolute Truth and share that Truth with someone in a loving and gentle way when there are opposing ideas. Dr. Bannister is the Director of Solas, and he speaks and teaches regularly throughout the UK, Europe, Canada, the USA, and the wider world. He addresses audiences of Christians and people of all faiths, or none, on issues related to faith, culture, politics, and society. He also hosts 2 podcasts called PEP Talk and Pod of the Gaps. He also wrote several books, including “Have you Ever Wondred?" Finally, we invited Dr. Hormoz Shariat back for more updates on the situation in Iran. Dr. Shariat is the Founder and President of Iran Alive Ministries (IAM), which uses satellite broadcasting and the internet to reach Iranians with the gospel. Dr. Shariat has been named “the Billy Graham of Iran” and “the most influential Iranian American” by Christianity Today.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Week 3 | The Gospel According to Pilate (2015)We're in a series of sermons from Darrell that correspond with Lent and the Easter season. It is called "The Theatre of Glory" and was delivered by Darrell in 2015 at First Baptist Church in Vancouver.In this Lenten message from John 18:28–19:22, Darrell walks us into the charged and complicated encounter between Jesus and Pontius Pilate. Rather than painting Pilate as merely cynical, Darrell helps us feel the political pressure, fear, and confusion he faced, and shows how simply standing in the presence of Jesus began to move him toward truth. As Pilate declares, “I find no guilt in him,” “Behold the man,” and “Behold your king,” we're invited to consider our own lives: in the tense and compromising spaces we inhabit, what will we say about the One who stands before us?__Redeemer University—Give to the Ministry of Darrell JohnsonDarrell's BooksSubscribe to Darrell's Mailing List

Season 7, Episode 24 of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank is officially The Willie Mays Episode — because in Frank's book, Willie Mays is the greatest all-around baseball player to ever step on a diamond. Kobe Bryant? Ken Griffey Jr.? Great choices. But this week, the Say Hey Kid gets the nod.Dan and Frank open in the post-football lull of the sports calendar — though as they quickly prove, there's never really a slow week. The Cowboys dominate early discussion, starting with Dallas franchise-tagging wide receiver George Pickens. Frank applauds the move, arguing that the Cowboys wisely avoided backing up the Brinks truck for a long-term deal given Pickens' “knucklehead” reputation — even if he's essential to keeping the offense competitive.Then comes the real cap-space debate: Brandon Aubrey. One of the best kickers in the NFL wants elite money — reportedly around $10 million per year. Is that justified? Or is paying a kicker that kind of money a luxury a defensively-struggling team simply can't afford? Dan makes the hard cap argument, while Frank wrestles with how often kickers truly swing outcomes. It's roster construction vs. clutch performance — and the Cowboys' front office has tough decisions ahead.From there, the conversation shifts to the NFL Combine — or as some call it, the “Underwear Olympics.” Do 40-yard dash times for offensive linemen really matter? Does bench press strength translate to Sunday performance? Dan questions whether the Combine is more made-for-TV spectacle than football evaluation — and floats a bigger idea: why doesn't the NFL formally partner with the UFL to give third-string quarterbacks and developmental players real game reps? The discussion becomes a broader critique of how the league handles player development.The Olympics segment brings passion back to the forefront. The guys celebrate Team USA's dramatic gold medal victories in men's and women's hockey — both 2–1 overtime thrillers over Canada — and reflect on how rare it feels to simply enjoy a patriotic sports moment without controversy. They tackle the media backlash surrounding political narratives, White House invitations, and postgame reactions, ultimately arguing that the Olympics should be about representing your country — period.Then comes a fascinating debate sparked by a CNN article: Norway tied the U.S. in gold medals and surpassed America in total medals at the Winter Olympics. Why? Norway claims it's because youth sports in their country emphasize fun, participation, and no scorekeeping until age 16. Dan isn't buying it. He argues the explanation is cultural and geographic — winter sports are embedded in Norway's identity in ways they simply aren't in most of America. It becomes a deeper look at how culture shapes athletic pipelines, why the U.S. dominates in basketball and football, and why hockey participation remains limited compared to Canada and Scandinavia.The episode closes with updates from MLS correspondent Daniel Hooks (including Champions League and upcoming U.S. national team matches), a shout-out to Ignite and Tony Dungy, and reflections on faith, community, and church life at First Baptist Church of Phillipsburg.As always, the show wraps the only way it knows how: loving sports, loving Jesus more, and inviting listeners to be part of both conversations.Special Thanks to:Fox Brothers Alarms - https://foxbrothersalarms.comFirst Baptist church of Phillipsburg NJ http://www.fbcpburg.org/

McDonald's owner-operator John Salls joins us on the Access Louisville podcast this week.Salls, who has more than 10 years of experience in the fast-food restaurant industry, talks about leading the restaurant group, having an impact on his young employees and carrying on his mother's legacy. John Salls is the son of Ira Salls, who in 1991 became the first Black female McDonald's franchisee in Kentucky and Indiana. She passed away in 2024 at the age of 70 and John talked about how she inspired him. “It's the reason why I do what I do," he tells LBF Editor-in-Chief Shea Van Hoy. "It's the reason why I'm so dedicated to the brand, just watching my mother — all the sacrifices and strides that she made as a trailblazer. "I'm really proud to carry on her legacy and continue to be a staple in the community for everyone, and just try to exemplify some of the things that she believed in.”He also spoke about the challenges of operating in a price-competitive market, including rising food costs — something that's plaguing many in the industry. “Those pressures are definitely real," he said. "I think over the last year, we may have seen base food [cost] go up about a percent."In order to counter that he talked about growing marketshare and reaching new customers — "whether it be through the delivery platforms or through the McDonald's mobile app, or just doing some local store marketing or community engagement.”Salls holds a bachelor of science degree from The University of Kentucky. He's an Eagle Scout and a member of First Baptist Church of Jeffersontown.Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Week 2 | Who Is On Trial Here? (2015)We're in a series of sermons from Darrell that correspond with Lent and the Easter season. It is called "The Theatre of Glory" and was delivered by Darrell in 2015 at First Baptist Church in Vancouver.In this Lenten message from John 18:12–27, Darrell invites us to look closely at how Jesus stands faithful under interrogation while his disciple Peter collapses under pressure. As Jesus refuses to deny the truth, Peter denies even knowing Him—revealing the stark contrast between human weakness and divine faithfulness. Yet Peter's fall is not the end of the story; it becomes the doorway to grace, as he discovers that true discipleship begins with the death of self-reliance. In the end, our salvation rests not on the strength of our faith, but on the unwavering faithfulness of Jesus—the only One who stands when all others fall.__Regent CollegeRegent College Summer Programs—Give to the Ministry of Darrell JohnsonDarrell's BooksSubscribe to Darrell's Mailing List
