Normandy Beach. Vietnam. Iraq. All of these are locations on a map that people could probably find geographically.

    “Fortnite keeps me in business.”- Brent Colwick, Child Therapist. When past generations hung out with friends (as children), the worst they would see was an R rated movie on late night cable.

  • #399 Reforesting Faith - What Trees Teach Us About The Nature And Love Of God-Matthew Sleeth 9/22/23

    22/09/2023 Duración: 47min

    “From the fall of man, the rest of the Bible is the story of man coming back to the tree of life. ”Question: What is the most mentioned living thing in the Bible, other than God and people? Answer: Trees On this week’s show, author Matthew Sleeth MD (MatthewSleethMD.com) talks about his new book “Reforesting Faith - what trees teach us about the nature and love of God.” Matthew reminds us that the tree is THE major metaphor in the Bible. Every main character and event in the Bible is associated with or linked to a tree. Yet over the years, trees have been eradicated from the scriptures by theologians. Why? Matthew gives us a unique and powerful perspective on something that God loves very dearly. He says,“God loves trees, He gives them a ring on every one of their birthdays.” (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

    08/09/2023 Duración: 47min

    In 1988 the Kentucky deer herds had grown beyond carrying capacity in some areas and biologists were encouraging additional doe harvest. This led to discussions between a few avid hunters who wanted to oblige wildlife management but had concerns about what to do with extra venison that they didn't have room to store or would exceed what their small families could consume. Sharing nature's bounty with those less fortunate seemed a natural choice and after a bit of research they discovered that donating meat to the needy was the answer. That fall Hunters for the Hungry was born as hunters joined with processors and food banks to supply donated meat to the needy. (From the website: www.kyhuntersforthehungry.info ) On this week’s show, Kurt and Chad welcome Ky Hunters for the Hungry President Roger Lapointe about how KHftH has helped to serve millions of meals for Kentuckians.

Having a dislike for “the man”, church (“It’s too feminine”) and especially preachers, Keith saw strength and power in the Black Muslim movement in the early 90’s.
