(re-aired from week of Sept. 23, 2019) “Daddy is leaving. In order for daddy to be a good daddy, he needs to be happy. Daddy’s not happy right now. You want daddy to be happy, don’t you?” “I know your dad and I just got divorced, but mommy really wants to marry Sam. I’ll be happy if I can just marry Sam—and I know you want a happy mommy.” Parents, hear this clearly. Your children are not interested in your happiness. Nor should they be. They are children. Their job is not to make you happy or to even be concerned about your happiness. Their job is to be children—to be obedie...

2021 | Week of June 14 | Radio Transcript #1416 Fatherhood. It’s a concept we don’t hear about all that frequently, at least positively, in our society.

2021 | Week of May 3 | Radio Transcript #1410 The late Phyllis Schlafly was one of my heroes. This diminutive in stature but giant in character woman fought battle after battle for our nation’s best natural resource—our nuclear mom-and-dad married families. During her lifetime, Mrs. Schlafly was given nearly every conservative award, honor and recognition you can think of, but she said that the highest honor she ever received was in 1992 when she was named Illinois Mother of the Year. Here was a lady who was an attorney, an author, a leader of a nationwide organization, a sought-after spe...

2021 | Week of April 26 | Radio Transcript #1409 For biblical Christians, what is more powerful than prayer lifted up to the Creator God?  What is more necessary than God’s grace?  What is more ennobling than the prayer that beseeches that God’s grace be shed abroad in the hearts of mankind and that our homeland be the beneficiary of that inexplicable grace? Next Thursday, May 6 is National Day of Prayer. As I think about that day, Hebrews 4:16 comes to mind, where we read “[l]et us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time o...
