Host Terry Lowry interviews influential and knowledgeable guests on relevant topics for today.

IS IT SAFER FOR WOMEN IN IRAN OR ISRAEL?

Discussed by Grant Berry
with Reconnecting Ministries (ReconnectingMinistries.org)

How does Iran treat its citizens, especially its women?

Today, Grant Berry offers the TRUTH about the difference between Iran/Islam and Israel/Judaism. Grant Berry is the founder of Reconnecting Ministries and Producer of the Romans 911 Project.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Does the MSM spin the truth to whatever they want the narrative to be? Grant Berry says it all goes back to Adam and Eve in the garden… BUT there IS good news!

Israel is portrayed internationally as the evil empire. Is Israel a perfect country and government?

Do Muslims have the most freedom in Israel or in its neighboring countries?

Do Imams in Iran truly believe they are to start Armageddon to rid the world of “infidels”? Grant Berry is confident that love will ultimately win. The Bible says so!

Are many across the world beginning to reconnect with each other and to God?

RETHINKING IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES: GOD’S GIFT OF MARITAL CONTRAST

Discussed by Dr. Bob Paul
with Hope Restored (HopeRestored.FocusOnTheFamily.com)

Every marriage has differences to overcome. How can couples ensure those differences don’t lead to conflicts?

Dr. Bob Paul is Vice President of Focus on the Family’s Family Marriage Institute. Today, he offers some great advice, hope, and encouragement to all couples.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

While dating, do opposites often attract?

Once married, are differences the major cause of marital challenges? Dr. Paul explains why he rejects the idea of “irreconcilable differences” for divorce.

Can God use marital differences for His divine purposes?

How do team sports illustrate God’s design? This is an interesting analogy…

How can couples use their differences to make their marriage stronger?

Is praying together vitally important? Dr. Paul reminds us that Jesus isn’t just our Savior, but he is our Lord. We should be getting our marching orders from him and that includes for our marriage.

ROMANS, ADOPTION, AND THE CHRISTIAN WALK

Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)

Day 4

WHEN WE THINK OF ADOPTION, WE THINK OF COUPLES WHO LONG FOR A CHILD TO HOLD IN THEIR ARMS FOREVER. BUT WHAT DID PAUL MEAN WHEN HE WROTE ABOUT US BEING ADOPTED INTO THE FAMILY OF GOD?

Mark Lanier continues with his Romans series this week reminding us that we owe the flesh nothing because we are sons and daughters of the King through glory, not suffering.

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

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

ROMAN ADOPTION: We are not slaves. We are sons (and daughters). (Romans 8:14-15)

What are the defining marks of “sonship”?

Why do we follow God and His commandments? Are you allowing God to actually lead you, though?

Does following the spirit automatically make someone “adopted”? Mark explains that it is actually the evidence that someone is adopted.

Side Note: Why doesn’t Mark like the word “Abba” when referring to God?

Why must there be witnesses to someone’s salvation? Listen closely as Mark explains…

A RIGHT RESPONSE TO PALM SUNDAY

Discussed by Pastor Jarrett Stephens
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Day 4

WHAT IS YOUR RESPONSE TO PALM SUNDAY? DO YOU TRULY APPRECIATE WHAT HAPPENED AND WHAT IS STILL HAPPENING TODAY?

This week, we are airing Pastor Jarrett Stephens Palm Sunday sermon from March 29, 2026. Pastor Jarrett preached about several people from Scripture who either prophesied about the death of Jesus or rejected the very idea of it.

Scripture Passage: Luke 19:28-40

Find Pastor Jarrett Stephens’ sermon here.

Find Pastor Jarrett Stehens’ sermon notes here.

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

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What is so special about Palm Sunday anyway? Did Ezekiel’s vision carry on from him to Palm Sunday and to the end of times? (Revelation 21:3; Revelation 19:11-16)

Who was Zechariah? What was his prophecy? (Zechariah 14:4) It is amazing to see how his vision ties into Palm Sunday!

WHAT IS THE RIGHT RESPONSE TO PALM SUNDAY?

Welcome Jesus. (John 12:12-13)

Tune in tomorrow for more responses and Pastor Jarrett’s final thoughts on Palm Sunday.

PRAYER

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

O Mighty God, Creator and Sustainer of All:

May your will be done through the world this day. From the White House to the State House to the Court House to our house, lead, guide, and direct our steps.

Open the minds of each leader to see your handwriting on the walls. Expose to their eyes your displeasure of the evil that surrounds them.

For those who deny you, publicly rebuke them for all to see.

For those who bow in their prayer closet seeking your way and your will, bless them for all to see.

May Christ-followers experience you. May they find wisdom and knowledge in your Word.

May we not turn back, be deterred, or give up. Holy Spirit, grant us strength to persevere in the midst of life’s storms.

Father, you have called us to be workers for your Kingdom. May we double our efforts, guided by the Holy Spirit. May the harvest be abundant this day.

And, Lord, if you grant us tomorrow, let’s repeat.

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

Amen
