We live in a culture overflowing with stuff—but starving for peace. Storage units, constant upgrades, credit-card debt, the hedonic treadmill… it all reveals something deeper: we want more, but it's never enough. Into that world, Jesus says, “Watch out for greed. Life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” (Luke 12:15) This week, Pastor David exposes the Lie of Scarcity, reveals the Truth of the Father's Abundance, and anchors us in the Hope of the Generous King—a King who became poor so that we might become rich in God.

A co-founder of a Columbia-based organization that serves pregnant women and new mothers in need describes itself as a “maternity home on steroids.” St. Raymond's Society co-founders Mike Hentges and Steve Smith joined host Fred Parry in-studio Saturday morning on 939 the Eagle's “CEO Roundtable”, along with Super Start preschool director Abby Skiles. Their facility is at the former Ronald McDonald House near Keene in Columbia. Abby Skiles, who grew up in Festus, runs the preschool and says they partner with parents. Abby provided listeners with a virtual tour during the interview, saying Super Start preschool has eight classrooms: an infant and toddler side and a side for two-year-olds and preschool children. Mike Hentges grew up in Jefferson City and graduated from the University of Missouri. He worked in the lawn and landscaping business in the Columbia area for 25 years before he co-founded the St. Raymond's Society. Steve Smith grew up in Rolla and spent 43 years in the insurance business before co-founding the organization. All three guests also spoke about what the future holds for their organization:
The world disciples us to crave more—more money, more status, more security. But God calls His people to something radically different: contentment shaped by the character of Christ. This week, Pastor Nathan teaches from 1 Timothy 6 and throughout Scripture that the Lord—not our job, not the government, not our hustle—is the true source of all provision. Because God is generous and wise, His people must be shrewd stewards and radically generous.
Jefferson City Administrator Scott Peterson reviews topics from last week’s city council meeting.
True generosity doesn't begin with guilt—it begins with grace. In this message, Pastor Jimmy reminds us that generosity is the overflow of God's unmerited favor. When we understand that every breath, gift, and resource comes from Him, giving becomes a joy, not a burden. From 2 Corinthians 8–9, we see the Macedonian believers give with joy amid poverty because they first gave themselves to the Lord. Grace came down—and generosity flowed out.
A veteran Missouri lawmaker will be in his eighth and final year in the Missouri House in January. State Rep. Dave Griffith (R-Jefferson City) joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri," Rep. Griffith is a longtime Missouri House Veterans Committee chair and tells listeners that he'll be focusing on bills that he hasn't been able to pass in seven previous years. The big one is his 100 percent disabled veteran bill, which is bipartisan. He's hopeful it can get across the finish line in 2026:
When the family of God shows up, Jesus doesn't just grow us—He sends us. This message from Pastor David wraps up the Familified series by showing how those who show up, stay, and grow in Christ are called to go—as Spirit-empowered witnesses to the world. We don't go alone; we go together, filled with His presence, power, and purpose.
939 the Eagle's Mike Murphy of Comobuz reports a major investor fight is impacting Columbia-based EquipmentShare. Murphy reports a former board member is suing, claiming that the Schlacks family made insider deals and pushed him out to keep him quiet. Murphy quotes EquipmentShare as calling the claims bogus. Mike Murphy joined host Fred Parry in-studio Saturday morning on 939 the Eagle's "CEO Roundtable" to discuss the lawsuit and numerous other issues. Mike Murphy tells listeners that court documents reveal a lot of details in this case. Mike also discussed a lawsuit filed in Jefferson City by hotel owners over the seven percent lodging tax:

Light exposes what darkness tries to hide—and Jesus invites us out of hiding into healing. In this message, Pastor David shows how the gospel moves us from Isolation → Invitation, Lies → Truth, Secrecy → Confession, and Spectators → Siblings through Christ's cleansing blood and the practice of confession and prayer together.

10-28-2025: Wake Up Missouri with Randy Tobler, Stephanie Bell, John Marsh, and Producer Drake
Jefferson City residents will head to the polls on November 4 to cast ballots on a lodging tax that is aimed at getting a conference center. Mayor Ron Fitzwater supports the lodging tax measure and a conference center, saying there are more than 100 associations in Jefferson City and that some of them can't hold their meetings in the Capital City because there isn't enough space. He also is ecstatic about the new Olive Garden coming to Jefferson City:
Today on the podcast we feature the leadership team of the Jefferson City, Missouri, chapter. They are NPM's 2025 Chapter of the year! We discuss the ways the chapter has increased their membership, cultivated consistent programming, and some of the most important relationships that have strengthened the chapter.
We live in a world that's crowded yet lonely—where fear, shame, individualism, and isolation fracture the human heart. But in Christ, God doesn't leave us in hiding—He forms us into a family that rejoices and weeps together. In this message, Pastor David unpacks how the gospel frees us from individualism and isolation to live as one family in Jesus. You'll see why real joy and real sorrow are meant to be shared, not shouldered alone.
David Stokes, Elias Tsapelas, and Avery Frank join Zach Lawhorn to discuss local ballot measures in Missouri, including new hotel taxes in Springfield and Jefferson City, municipal use and gas taxes, how the ongoing federal shutdown could jeopardize food stamp benefits for hundreds of thousands of Missourians and what the federal Rural Health Transformation Fund means for reform, and emerging ideas in energy policy such as consumer regulated electricity and the debate over data center development in Missouri.

This is the VIC 4 VETS, Weekly Honored Veteran. SUBMITTED BY: JOE RUSCH Jim Mayerwho is a US Army veteran that served in Vietnam. He will be inducted in the Missouri Veterans Hall of Fame on Friday, October 24th. The ceremony will take place in the rotunda of the State Capitol in Jefferson City. Just two months into his Army service in Vietnam, Jim was on patrol when he stepped on a land mine. He ended up losing both of his legs below the knee. April 25th, 1969 is the day that changed his life and in turn, it has changed the lives of hundreds, if not thousands of other veterans with whom he came in contact. Every April 25th, Jim celebrates his “Alive Day” with family and friends to note this turning point in his life. The “Milkshake Man” was born in the early 1990s. He has had an impact on many veterans who have suffered similar injuries. During visits to Walter Reed Hospital, Jim started bringing them McDonalds milkshakes to make them feel more at home and give them a feeling of comfort. Jim worked at the VA from 1978 to 2007 and then moved to the Wounded Warrior Project as the Director of Peer Mentoring from 2007 to 2016. Jim was inducted into the Affton (MO) High School Hall of Fame in 2009. Jim was a member of the Affton H.S. class of 1964. https://afftoneducationfoundation.org/hall_of_fame Below are links to various articles about Jim that highlight his story and service: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EVQws0Gzy0 https://abcnews.go.com/WNT/PersonOfWeek/story?id=131829&page=1 Jim has worked with the Aleethia Foundation to help provide thousands of free steak dinners to injured veterans and their families as part of their recovery. https://www.legion.org/information-center/news/troops/2013/october/ocw-among-wounded-warriors-dinner-sponsors Jim’s service was immortalized in a Doonesbury comic strip. https://news.va.gov/press-room/emissary-of-hope-honored-for-aid-to-combat-veterans/ ________________________________________________________________ This Week’s VIC 4 VETS, Honored Veteran on NewsTalkSTL.With support from our friends at:Alamo Military Collectables, and Monical’s PizzaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We live in a world that's more connected than ever — and more alone than ever. But into our chaos steps Jesus. He doesn't just forgive sinners; He adopts sons and daughters. He takes isolated lives and forms them into a household of love, joy, and peace in His name. This message from Pastor David shows that God is a Family who makes family — a Father, Son, and Spirit drawing us home into His life of love. In Mark 3:31–35, Jesus redefines family around Himself — not by bloodline but by faith and obedience.
From the beginning, God has revealed Himself through the language of family. He is a Father who loves fiercely, a Brother who obeys humbly, and a Husband who sacrifices faithfully. This message from Pastor Nathan shows how the nature of God Himself — Father, Son, and Spirit — draws us into His life of love and teaches us how to love one another as His family.
Every postcard has its surprises, and this one from my collection is a little unusual. Instead of showing a scenic view or a tourist attraction, it shows a mural of a man who was both feared and admired: Jesse James, the famous Missouri outlaw. The mural is located inside the Missouri State Capitol in Jefferson City, and the fact that it ended up on a postcard tells you a lot about how Americans have remembered Jesse James—not just as a criminal, but as a larger-than-life figure of folklore. The postcard was published by Blair Cedar & Novelty Works of Camdenton, Missouri, with printing by Colorpicture of Boston, Massachusetts. Like many linen-era cards, it's vivid and bold, with stylized colors that almost make the mural look alive. On the front, the mural shows Jesse James and his gang in the middle of a train robbery—a scene that has become part of American legend. Farmers and workers stand in the background, symbolizing the state's broader history, while the train steams through the center as the action unfolds. It's a striking image: outlaw life turned into high art, displayed in the very heart of Missouri government...

Meals tell stories — and the Lord's Supper tells the greatest one of all. In 1 Corinthians 11, Paul reminds the church that the Table of Christ is not about personal status or private religion — it's about a redeemed family, united in grace and centered on Jesus. This message from Pastor David calls us to lay down our baggage, look to Jesus, and come together for the better, not the worse — as one body made whole by His blood.

Fasting isn't just self-denial—it's spiritual warfare. In this week's message, Pastor Nathan unpacks Matthew 9:14–17 and Matthew 17:14–21 to show how fasting isn't simply for self-improvement, but an active way believers resist the powers of darkness through Christ's strength.
Jesus didn't just teach, He wept. In Matthew 23:37–39, Jesus laments over Jerusalem—grieving for those who rejected Him, longing to gather them as a hen gathers her chicks. This sermon from Pastor David calls us to share Christ's compassion and recognize that His tears lead to our mission. Jesus' lament shows He is not ignorable—He is the Savior we need.

When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, He declared: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” In this message, Eric unpacks Matthew 4 to show how fasting teaches us to crucify the flesh and feast on Christ, the true Bread of Life. Fasting isn't punishment—it's pursuit. It's letting go of control, resisting temptation, and finding our deepest satisfaction in Jesus.
Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe joins Annie Frey to reflect on the weight of Sept. 11, 2025 — a day marked by national remembrance and the shock of Charlie Kirk's assassination. Speaking fresh from a 9/11 ceremony in Jefferson City, Kehoe discusses the importance of unity, his personal connection to first responders, and the rise in political violence. He also addresses Missouri's recent moves on redistricting, law enforcement, and the state's role in reclaiming safety in cities like St. Louis. Kehoe offers insight on how Missouri is leading with common-sense conservatism and explains why he believes America must return to its founding principles of peaceful debate and mutual respect.
Protesters gathered at the Missouri Capitol on Wednesday as lawmakers aim to push through redrawing the state's congressional districts during a special session called by Gov. Mike Kehoe. The move would eliminate the Democratic-leaning 5th District in the Kansas City area. STLPR politics correspondent Jason Rosenbaum joins us from Jefferson City to break down what's happening on the ground, why the redistricting fight is contentious and what comes next as the Senate prepares to vote on the proposed map later this week.
Lawmakers return to Jefferson City this week to consider Republican proposals to change the state's congressional map and limit voters' ability to pass laws. Democrats are calling those efforts illegal and racist. We'll get a preview from STLPR's Jason Rosenbaum. Plus, actress Tina Lifford credits her longevity towards prioritizing her mental wellness. STLPR's Marissanne Lewis-Thompson spoke with the Illinois native ahead of her appearance this week at the Own Your Now Wellness Experience in St. Louis about her career, mental health, and how she became an actress.
Missouri House members from all corners of the state will be driving to Jefferson City on this Monday morning for the special session on congressional redistricting and initiative petition changes. The full Missouri House convenes at 2 pm. Republican Governor Mike Kehoe called the special session, saying action is needed to ensure our congressional districts and state Constitution put Missouri values first. Democrats disagree, saying the GOP is trying to gerrymander congressional districts. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn was live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" this morning with hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell. He discussed the special session and tonight's roast in Jefferson City for Missouri Senate President Pro Tem Cindy O'Laughlin (R-Shelbina), who represents Randolph County in the 939 the Eagle listening area. Mr. Faughn says State Sen. Rusty Black, GOP consultant Jeff Roe and others will be in Jefferson City for tonight's roast. Mr. Faughn says it will benefit Safe Passage in Moberly, which helps victims of domestic violence:
Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe isn't just calling lawmakers back to Jefferson City to redraw the state's congressional lines. He's also urging lawmakers to make monumental changes to Missouri's initiative petition system. Kehoe's proposal would drastically raise the bar for some proposed constitutional amendments to be enacted. The idea has received strong support from Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins, a Republican. Hoskins responds to points raised by the plan's detractors and explains why he feels the proposal will fare well at the ballot box.
On the latest episode of the Politically Speaking Hour on St. Louis on the Air, STLPR's Jason Rosenbaum reports from Jefferson City on what could be a pivotal special session. Rosenbaum talks with House Minority Leader Ashley Aune about a proposed redraw of the state's congressional lines and Secretary of State Denny Hoskins about a proposal making it harder for ballot items to pass.
Missouri's special session in Jefferson City is underway on congressional redistricting and initiative petition reforms changes. Missouri Senate President Pro Tem Cindy O'Laughlin (R-Shelbina) was live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri". She tells hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell that Missouri's Constitution has become a dumping ground for progressive causes and that IP reform is needed. She also says the Senate will start work on the special session on Wednesday and should vote on the bills next Friday:
Some Missouri lawmakers return to Jefferson City today for a special session on congressional redistricting and on amending the state's initiative petition process. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) announced the call Friday afternoon, and Democrats are furious. State Rep. LaKeySha Bosley (D-St. Louis) says the integrity of our democratic system is at stake. Governor Kehoe and other Republicans want to see a 7-1 GOP congressional map in Missouri, rather than the current 6-2 map. The governor joined hosts Randy Tobler and Jennifer Bukowsky live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" and says he's optimistic that both measures, the congressional redistricting maps and IP changes, will pass. Governor Kehoe also tells listeners that Missourians have elected GOP supermajorities to both chambers and have elected Republicans to every statewide office:
Missouri lawmakers return to Jefferson City Wednesday for a special session on congressional redistricting and on amending the state's initiative petition process. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) announced the call Friday afternoon, and Democrats are furious. Missouri House Majority Floor Leader Alex Riley (R-Springfield) agrees with the governor's call. But Democrats like State Rep. LaKeySha Bosley (D-St. Louis), one of the Missouri House's senior members, say the integrity of our democratic system is at stake. Representative Bosley says the proposed redistricting efforts also risk Governor Kehoe's own promise to lead with fairness and integrity. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." Mr. Faughn tells listeners that the Missouri Legislature will approve a 7-1 GOP congressional map and predicts the courts will uphold it. He also says we'll see some protests in Jefferson City:
How likely is Congressional redistricting in Missouri? UMKC Political Science Professor Debra Leiter says Missourians are getting, 'mixed messages from Jefferson City,' regarding redistricting ahead of the 2030 US Census. She says the US Constitution gives state legislatures, 'quite a lot of leeway,' in how to handle drawing district lines. With Megan Lynch.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! For nearly 170 years, the Missouri State Penitentiary in Jefferson City stood as both a fortress and a nightmare. Opening its gates in 1836, it was the oldest continuously operating prison west of the Mississippi until it finally closed in 2004. In that time, it saw more than its share of darkness—countless injuries, violent deaths, and the infamous 1954 riot that led Time Magazine to brand it “the bloodiest 47 acres in America.” But just because the prisoners left doesn't mean the prison is empty. Today, the long, echoing corridors are filled with something else—apparitions lurking in shadow, disembodied voices, and an oppressive sense that you're never truly alone. Guides and visitors alike say the past is still very much alive within these stone walls. On this episode of The Grave Talks, Part One of our conversation with ghost tour guide Jenny Switzer about the history—and hauntings—of the Missouri State Penitentiary.

A popular Jefferson City diner, a Glasgow company celebrating 65 years in business, the turnout for Columbia's budget town halls and Disney were some of the winners of the week this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri"." Hosts Peter Thiele and John Marsh were joined in-studio by news director Brian Hauswirth and Producer Drake:
The Missouri legislature spent a lot of time in the spring working to un-do laws that voters passed on November's ballot — including paid sick leave and abortion. Now, a group called Respect Missouri Voters wants to stop lawmakers in Jefferson City from doing that.
