WANT MORE BLACK DOCTORS? IMPROVE K-12 EDUCATION FIRST.

Discussed by Stacy Washington
with Project 21 (www.NationalCenter.org)

When it comes to education improvement, I have a novel idea: Let’s help ALL students reach high standards, rather than skirting the law to favor some who don’t quite meet the mark.

Today, Stacy Washington addresses this idea as she discusses the dire state of the education system in America. Stacy is an Ambassador with Project 21 and the host of “Stacy on the Right” (found on SiriusXM). Stacy is also a wife, mother of three, an Emmy-nominated TV personality, and an Air Force veteran.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Is the Department of Justice alleging that some Med Schools in Californian are skirting the law by not admitting some white and Asian students who scored better on entrance exams?

How many American fourth-graders are not proficient in reading? By eighth grade, how many black children are not proficient in math at grade level? Stacy reveals that the startling statistics – and YES they are absolutely true and accurate.

Where does the education establishment place the blame? Is focusing on post-secondary education too late?

If leftists and others really want to see improvement in the numbers of black and brown doctors, should they start with the youngest children?

WHAT IS YOUR TOP ISSUE?

Discussed by Valoree Swanson
with Valoree Swanson (www.valoreeswanson.com)

The fight to keep boys and men out of female sports is not over. The fight for LIFE is not over. Crime rates are crazy as well as property taxes. How can you help a candidate/s succeed?

Today, five-term Texas Representative Valoree Swanson (HD150) explains why we can’t stop fighting for the safety and innocence of females in Texas and across the nation. She also discusses the importance of voting RED down ballot November to ensure we keep protecting the unborn, keeping criminals off our streets, and safeguarding our elections.

Valoree is a sixth-generation Texan, home-school mom, and adoptive parent. She has been a Conservative activist for decades. Valoree Swanson is the Republican Nominee for House District 150 (NW Harris County) in the November election.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why would anyone would want a male to compete against a female in high school or college sports?

Why isn’t the battle to keep boys and men from competing against females over? Valoree discusses some of the battles they have faced – some won and some lost – and why we need to convince the rest of the nation to ban males in women’s sports.

OTHER ISSUES:

Do Texans want to protect life from the moment of conception to natural death?

Are voters concerned with ever-increasing crime rates?

Does Texas have secure elections?

Besides the obvious (voting!), how can voters help candidates succeed? Valoree has some great suggestions. Get started NOW!

TRUE SATISFACTION

Discussed by Pastor Kal Kilgo
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Day 5

NOTE: We are airing the past TWO sermons from CFBC due to audio difficulties with the Biblical-Literacy lesson. If you have a prayer request, need Scripture encouragement, or would like a copy of Mark’s lessons each week, email wantmore@biblical-literacy.org   For more information about Mark Lanier’s Biblical Literacy class, click here.

WHAT DOES SATISFACTION MEAN TO YOU? DOES SOMEONE OR SOME THING SATISFY YOU? IS IT A JOB WELL DONE AND A GOOD DAY’S WORK? IS IT A WARM, HOME-COOKED MEAL? DOES YOUR SPOUSE SATISFY YOU? DO YOUR KIDS SATISFY YOU? DOES MONEY OR PRESTIGE BRING YOU SATISFACTION?

Pastor Kal Kilgo steps into the pulpit this week to present the sermon from Champion Forest Baptist Church from Psalm 90. Pastor Kal is the College and Young Adults Pastor at CFBC.

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

COVENANT SATISFACTION (Psalm 90:12-17)

When is the last time you asked God to help you be satisfied? Probably never – or very rarely! Do it now! It might feel weird, but it will be sooooo worth it.

Are you willing to allow God to satisfy you?

Is your time alone with God very structured? Is this wrong? Pastor Kal warns us to not get comfortable…

Have you ever been very, very, very bold in your requests to God?

Can God really redeem the past of anyone – no matter what they did? (Joel 2:25-27) Pastor Kal says: “God will never dismiss or neglect what hurt you. In fact, He bottles up every tear. He is a redeemer.”

FINAL THOUGHTS:

True satisfaction is only found in the steadfast love of God

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, simply text the word JESUS to 77069 and a pastor or counselor from CFBC will call you back.

FULLY CONVINCED

Discussed by Pastor Emory Cothen
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Day 5

ARE YOU CONVINCED OF YOUR SAVIOR OR OF YOUR CIRCUMSTANCE? ARE YOU ALLOWING YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES TO DEFINE YOU OR DESCRIBE YOU? WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE?

Pastor Emory Cothen continues in the LIFE LESSONS sermon series with a powerful message on who he wants to be – as a Christian, husband, father, and pastor.

Scripture Reference: Romans 4:19-21

Find Pastor Emory Cothen’s sermon here.

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

Note: Yesterday, Pastor Cothen shared part of his personal testimony. Today, we are airing the tail-end of it, but don’t have time to play the whole thing. If you missed it, check out the archives.

Where does righteousness come from? Where did Abraham get his righteousness?

Do you truly believe that God is still in the miracle-making business? What is holding you back from believing that God is fully able? Pastor Cothen says this: “What you are convinced of forms your convictions.”

FINAL THOUGHTS:

What is causing you to doubt God? Identify it!

Are you experiencing God and His promises? Try it out today!

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, simply text the word JESUS to 77069 and a pastor or counselor from CFBC will call you back.

PRAYER

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Lifting this prayer to the only true God, the Creator of all:

Are you through with America? Have you rejected us, O Lord?

Have mercy on your children and withhold your anger for the sake of the remnant.

Our leaders boast, claiming that our enemy’s might has been destroyed, yet they come out of their fortified bunkers striking even our allies.

Our friends beg us to stop, for they prefer to pay ransom. They are not willing to say no to the evil regime, while bowing to the same idol, Allah, the devil himself.

May your Church stand and share the true gospel in and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

May we be found faithful until we hear the words: “It is done.”

All for the cause of Christ, in whose name we pray,

Amen and Amen.
