LISTEN NOW! So many people today are worrying so much about the New Year and over the economy. John, Pat, and Chris encourage us not to worry but rather to trust God. All you can do is what you can do then trust God with the rest. Worry is the interest you pay on tomorrows problems. Worry brings torment, disturbing thoughts, annoyances, and anxieties. Nothing good comes from worrying. We need peace in our lives and we can have it when we trust God and not look to ourselves to try to fix things that we can’t control. Proverbs 3:5-6 says Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

John and Pat share an amazing account of a kind act that started a long chain of links of kindness. A gentleman in Winnipeg Canada bought a cup of coffee for himself and for the car waiting behind him in the drive thru. The person who received the free cup of coffee added another link of kindness to the chain. Well this happened 228 more times, extending a very nice chain of kindness with 228 “links” of kind acts. Jesus went around doing good. They encourage us to end the year doing kind acts and to be willing to start a long chain of kind deeds. The Bible tells us in Matthew 5:16l let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

Hear, Hear; Do, Do; Whoo, Doo; Hear, Do. Which one are you?
Greg and John share about how so many people today only hear the word of God, but do not plan on doing what they hear. While at the same time there are those who are Do, Do’s, who are constantly doing religious works, but never hear the word of God, they just “Do.” Then there are those who Hear what God says and Do what it says. It is only those who hear and do who will stand in the storm and who will be blessed in all they do.

LISTEN NOW! Greg, John and Pat share about how John the Baptist was baptizing people that had gathered around him. John was surprised by who stepped out from the crowd. It was Jesus in the crowd and it was not until that moment he stepped out was John able to recognize him. So many people today want to be recognized before they step out. The truth is that you need to trust God, step out and find out. So many are content to be amongst the crowd but they’re not related. They are just hanging around. They encourage us to step out from amongst the crowd in 2013.

LISTEN NOW! Greg, Chris and John discuss whether we will acknowledge God? Chris talks about Psalms 5 and the faithfulness of God when we cry out to Him. God wants us to cry out to Him and wait with expectation for his answer. David cried out to God and God gave him the victory. The also discussed when King Hezekiah cried out to God when the Assyrian King Sennacherib in 2 Chronicles 32 was attacking Judah and tried to get them to doubt God. Hezekiah cried out to God and God sent an angel and annihilated the king of Assyria’s army. Faith without works is dead. Don’t trust in your strength, money or even in your home. Trust God and acknowledge God.

LISTEN NOW! Greg, John, and Pat discuss how as of today we are just only 5 days away from the fiscal cliff. The House of Representatives and the Senate are at a standstill with neither side budging. The President cut short his vacation which may be he shouldn’t have gone on, to make a deal so the country does not go over the fiscal cliff when President’s George Bush’s tax cuts expire. Allegedly Fox News reports that jailed criminals are excited about the potential fiscal cliff because if we go over the cliff they know that funds will be limited to house criminals and some of them will have to be released. They encourage the President not to let the Bush tax cuts expire. They continue to discuss some of the effects of socialism and discuss a documentary about a London hospital in 1907. We are too blessed of a nation, do we even realize it?
