Family Show December 12, 2025: Enflamed by Love This Advent

Can this really be the path toward Christmas: so many hungry people and so many empty mangers?  Are nights in Advent supposed to be this dark?  Are nights in Advent supposed to be this cold?  If this is Advent, shouldn’t there be a wreath?  Shouldn’t there be candles?  Then again, maybe, there are.  Maybe, in God’s plan this Advent, the Advent wreath is you.  If you’re feeling ready to accept this season as the season for you to be God’s love letter to the world, then awake, arise, and check in with Eleanor, Brenda, and Randy as they encourage you to embrace your call to illuminate the world with flames of faith, hope, love, joy, and peace.

Family Show November 28, 2025 - Let This Advent Illuminate the Walk that Will Define Your Eternity

Did you ever think Christianity is not a theology, a morality, a worldview, a set of laws, rules, or proscriptions, a religion, a way of worship, an avenue for service, a church, a structure, a hierarchy, a vocation, an organization, a school, or a tradition?  Did you ever think your faith could be a walk with a friend, a father, a shepherd, and a savior?  On your walk together, you pour out your heart, and the pieces all come together?  As you walk, He speaks to you, and you feel your heart burning?  And you never want that walk to end?  If you’re ready to use this Advent to kindle an eternal fire in your heart, get on board with Eleanor, Brenda, and Randy, and step into a love that’s designed to meet your strides forever.

Do you think God is happy?  Do you think God smiles?  Do you think God delights in you?  Do you think God guides your steps because He wants to make you good, or because He wants to see you smile?  Do you think God longs to sing for you in paradise, “It’s you and me forever”?  If you’ve done your time in the desert and you’re tired of feeling cold and all alone, take a moment with Eleanor, Brenda, and Randy, and let God hold you and warm you as you wait with Him for the sunlight.
