BEYOND WORDS with Dr. William Campbell

Each of us is called to pass the faith and hope of Christ to the next generation. How are we doing? Cultural experts tell us that we are missing the mark, and a whole generation is missing God. We can turn this around. Dr. Kenneth Ulmer, author of Passing the Generation Blessing, offers keen insight and personal stories to help us along the way.

Do you have the peace of God in your heart, or do anxiety, anger, depression, loneliness, and inner turmoil tend to pull you around like waves on the sea? In this message, Bill draws insights from the book of Hebrews to help you reclaim and live in peace once again, despite the challenges and changes in the world that threaten you every day. Tune in for a spiritual tune-up!

Do you believe prayer changes things? Jim Cymbala does. When he and Carolyn Cymbala founded the multi-racial Brooklyn Tabernacle in 1973, they never imagined it would eventually have over 16,000 members. And they attribute it all to prayer. Join us as Jim tells his story: the founding and growth of ministry, overwhelming difficulties, and striking demonstrations of the power of prayer.

At this time of the year we celebrate Christmas and the New Year with much joy. Or do we? Often our joy is sapped by change. It is not just the calendar but also the world around us seems to be in a state of flux. It has been rightly said that the only constant in life is change. Such change often creates fear and anxiety in our hearts. How then can we find the joy God promises? Authors Bill and Pam Farrel help us to locate a source of joy the world cannot duplicate or take away.

Think of fun trivia about Christmas: The number of homes Santa would have to visit per second to keep everyone happy; the tallest Christmas tree ever decorated; or the largest snow man ever built. Such trivia can be interesting. Juxtaposed against the true message of Christmas, however, it becomes fascinating. It highlights something much greater, and much better. Tune in to gain a fresh, insightful, even humorous perspective on the most amazing fact about Christmas.
