 A liberal female lawmaker who is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America makes waves over the FDNY displaying a flag to remember six firefighters who died on 9/11. Where is the reason and common sense? In triggered America today, we are being conditioned to be outraged by EVERYTHING. The FBI makes house calls across the country to threaten people over their social media posts. (*Hint: Think threat to democracy.) And four years after Covid, Bill Maher makes an astonishing about-face and tells the truth about America's penchant for overreacting to everything.

God will never bring any charge against you. He is always for you, and the Holy Spirit even prays for you. This is an important message in Romans 8! But there's more: God freely gives us everything in Christ. He doesn't withhold in the slightest. Plus, He even guarantees our growth as He inspires us to be conformed to the image of Christ in our attitudes and actions. In short, God is good, and you can count on Him. Be encouraged by the simple, powerful truth in this message about how much your Father loves you. Enjoy! Discussion Questions for Romans 8:26-39: 1. What do you believe the Spirit prays for you? Give examples. 2. Read verse 28 and react to this statement: All believers (collectively) love God and have a heavenly calling. How is this different from the popular view of predestining (or calling) individuals to believe? 3.

How does predestined in verse 29 provide context for predestined in verse 30? Predestined to what? (Hint: Think growth and consider Philippians 1:6). 5. Read verse 31. What does it mean to you that God is for you? 6. Read verse 32. What does freely give us all things mean? What things? 7. Read verse 33. Who is God's elect? Think in terms of a collective group.

Is Ohio State about to land a quality offensive tackle from the portal? As our Bill Kurelic reported yesterday, OT Josh Simmons from San Diego State will make an official visit to OSU beginning this Friday and Simmons told Kurelic he has "high interest" in the Buckeyes. The 6-foot-6, 305-pound Simmons is one of the top players available in the portal and has three seasons of eligibility remaining. On today's show, Dave Biddle discusses the possibility of landing Simmons and what that would mean for the Buckeyes. Also, rumors are flying that Ohio State could be the landing spot for Notre Dame transfer Lorenzo Styles Jr., who is switching positions from wide receiver to defensive back. Furthermore, are there any concerns about OSU being a few over the scholarship limit? Or are we not concerned in the least? (Hint: Think latter.)

The passport of Jesus is one of the strongest arguments for us to abandon Law and enjoy God's grace. That's right Jesus' lineage (born into the tribe of Judah) makes Him a high priest like no other. As a result, we can set aside the Law as weak and useless for us, because Jesus Christ is greater and His grace is enough. Find out more in this important message on Hebrews 7! Discussion Questions: 1. Read verses 1-3 and verse 8. Do you think Melchizedek represents Christ (as a symbol) or was he actually an early appearance of Christ? Explain your reasons. 2. Read verse 5.

The U.S. finally is getting its act together on climate with big new tax credits for people who buy electric vehicles (EVS) and go solar and incentives for companies to do invest in green production. So why are European and Asian governments steaming mad at us and screaming “trade barrier!!” in numerous languages, instead of cheering our better-late-than-never climate action? Especially given we only have less than 10 years to take drastic measures or face dire climate catastrophe! Will the Biden administration cave in and roll back these excellent new policies that were explicitly designed to simultaneously counter the interrelated crises of climate chaos, supply chain meltdowns causing shortages and inflation, and economic inequality and anxiety? On this episode of Rethinking Trade with Lori Wallach we unpack what was in the Inflation Reduction Act and how it can help more people get an EV, go solar, have reliable supplies of such products and good jobs making them. Ben Beachy, the Vice President of Manufacturing and Industrial Policy at the BlueGreen Alliance explains it all. Plus, Ben and Lori make sense of the short-sighted sniping from other countries. (Hint: Think circular firing squad!)

From watermelon to stone fruit to table grapes, Sun World CEO David Marguleas has decades of experience in bringing vibrant new products to the consumer market. He visits the podcast this week to talk about how his company has made critical new hires and brought breeding in-house to stay at the forefront of molecular technologies. "In the middle of the pandemic we opened our new center for innovation in Wasco, Calif.," David says. "The new facility is a massive upgrade both technologically and functionally...and we've allowed for the expansion of that facility into a number of other crops we believe are begging for innovation that are underserved globally." (Hint: Think mangoes and cherries.) On the other end of the scale, does innovation ever reach a point of oversaturation? There are now more than 110 table grape varieties grown in California, David says, which means the marketplace is very competitive. The secret? Meet the customer where they are and focus on what they care about the most: "flavor, texture, shelf life, visual appeal" and two new traits, David says, "climate resistance and sustainability."

Evan goes on a ramble about a few thoughts of the week related to some money changes that may be coming up in the next month or so.

Last week's news that the economy added just 266,000 jobs when many economists were expecting closer to 1 million made for a lot of head-scratching. Republicans say that excessive Covid relief benefits are creating a disincentive for people to come back to work. Democrats say that recovery is a long road and that if anything, the anemic jobs numbers show that the economy needs an additional boost. So, what's really going on?

If you've lived in College Station or Bryan more than a minute, then you probably know about the Culpepper family. If not, then you're certainly living, shopping, dining or being entertained in spaces that were developed by the Culpeppers. President/CEO of Culpepper Realty Co. Jack Culpepper, and General Counsel Larry Haskins talked about the beginnings of the family business, its early successes throughout the twin cities (and beyond) -- and even gave some hints about their next redevelopment moves on property just across from Texas A&M. Hint: Think of the space where IHOP, Schlotzsky's and Hurricane Harry's are located --across from Century Square. There's great insight from a family that's already invested in College Station for nine decades, with its fourth generation already working on the next big announcement.

Most people know the story of Ebenezer Scrooge told in Charles Dickens' classic, A Christmas Carol. But his story deserves a retelling for our audience of hard-working and driven men. See, we all get slammed this time of year with way too much to do, way too much to spend, way too many company parties to throw, and way too many places to be.

This episode will tell you how to avoid neglecting the things that matter most through this Christmas season while ignoring the things that don't matter.

This week we are concluding our series on Joshua. We are going to the end of the 11th chapter to look at the summary of conquest of Canaan. In our text, which is bracketed by the repeated statement "So Joshua took (the) this entire land" we discover at least three principles regarding how the Lord fulfills his promises. This is the fulfillment of a 500 year old promise first made to Abraham. This must have been a huge accomplishment in the mind of the author of the book; after all, it was a long time coming. The author is careful to note that the entire land was taken. By this he does not rule out that there were still sections of the country where hostiles remained as fugitives in the land. Later stories confirm this. We also should note that not until David's time did the Israelite territory extend to its maximum size. But it does mean that Joshua carried out the specific orders given by the Lord. The victory and the fulfillment of the promise is due to a combination of Joshua's courage and faithfulness and the Lord's miraculous intervention. It is a remarkable illustration of how the Lord accomplishes his purposes through his people. He even uses the hardness of the Canaanite hearts to ensure their extinction. The mention in verse 22 of Gaza, Gath and Ashdod is quite interesting. These areas become infamous strongholds and the center of Philistine resistance in later years. We are left to wonder why Joshua was not instructed to carry on the battle to these coastal areas. Perhaps the presence of the Philistines in later years is what the Lord uses to keep Israel dependent upon him. This is a discussion for the book of Judges which deals with this very problem. Questions for Discussion: 1. Slide 2. Why do you think the author is emphasizing in our text that Joshua took the entire land? What might have prompted this assertion? Hint: Think about the Judges when things are not going very well and the Philistines are overrunning the country. 2. Slide 9. Reread the "be strong and courageous" challenges in 1:6-9. What was Joshua's central responsibility? While he was not perfect, why did he succeed? 3. Slide 10-12. Discuss the interplay between God's miraculous intervention and the work of Joshua and the army. Why doesn't God just do this himself? In what ways have you seen God work though the free will of others, even those who are unbelievers? 4. Slide 13-16. Why mention the Anakites specifically? What do we learn here about delaying the fulfillment of God's promises? Why do you think the Lord did not get rid of every giant in the land? How has God used giants in your life to draw you closer to Him? 5. Slide 17. Review some of the great promises of God received in your handout. Which ones are most relevant to you today? How might you apply the lessons learned in this text to your promises?

[This episode first aired January 19th, 2008.]Does your family use a special word you've never heard anywhere else? A funny name for 'the heel of a loaf of bread,' perhaps, or for 'visiting relatives who won't leave.' In this week's episode, Martha and Grant discuss 'family words,' and Martha reveals the story behind her own family's secret word, 'fubby.'Why do we say that someone who's pregnant is 'knocked up'? The hit movie starring Katherine Heigl and Seth Rogen has a caller wondering about this term.A man whose last name is McCoy wants a definitive answer about the origin of the expression 'the real McCoy.' He's been told it comes from the name of turn-of-the-century boxing champ Kid McCoy. Is that really the case?A Michigander wants to know about the difference between 'titled' and 'entitled.' She'd assumed that a book is 'titled' Gone with The Wind and a person is 'entitled' to compensation for something. Grant and Martha explain it's a little more complicated than that.Quiz Guy Greg Pliska presents a quiz about 'False Plurals,' based on the old riddle: What plural word becomes singular when you put the letter 's' at the end of it? (Hint: Think of a brand of tennis racket, as well as the former name of a musical artist before he changed it back again.)Quick, which is faster?
