Karl and Crew Mornings

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we kicked off a new weekly theme, "Four Pillars of Manhood." What makes a good man? We discussed pillar number one: rejecting passivity. Passivity is the tendency to move away from responsibility, and it is one of the greatest enemies of biblical manhood. We looked to the story of David and Bathsheba in 2 Samuel 11 as an example of how one passive a

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we wrapped up this week's discussion on making choices. Our Scripture Reference was Matthew 16:24-26. Jesus presents us with a choice: gain the world and forfeit our souls, OR deny ourselves and follow Him today. Our guest this morning was Rachel G. Scott. She is a Bible teacher, podcast host, author, and founder of the I Can't Come Down Movement. H

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we continued our discussion on making choices. Our Scripture Reference was Joshua 24:14-15. As he was nearing the end of his life, Joshua gave Israel (and us) some final words of wisdom: "Choose this day whom you will serve." Who are you choosing to serve today? And what will your final words be when the time comes for you to enter eternity? Our gue

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we discussed making the choice between working for man's approval or working for God's approval. Our Scripture Reference was Colossians 3:22-4:1. Our guest this morning was David Hataj, president and owner of Edgerton Gear, Inc., a Wisconsin-based custom gear manufacturer.

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we continued our topic of making choices. We discussed the choice between setting our minds on the things of earth or on the things above. Our Scripture Reference was Colossians 3:1-4. What does it mean to set our minds on "things above?" Philippians 4:8 tells us what kind of things we can practice thinking about in order to achieve this mindset.&nb

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we kicked off our theme for the week: Making Choices. We discussed making the choice between spiritual freedom and spiritual slavery. Our Scripture Reference was Galatians 4:21-5:1. Paul uses the story of Hagar and Sarah from the book of Genesis to illustrate the two directions in which one can choose. When we try to take hold of God's promises in o

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we heard Young Thunder's testimony of how he came to saving faith in Jesus. Then we gave God some Freedom Friday praise! We also wrapped up our discussion about how to tell if we are spiritually drifting. We talked about "the greatest generation," and asked listeners what old-fashioned practices they think should make a comeback. And finally, this i

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we continued our discussion about how to tell if we are spiritually drifting. Our Scripture reference this morning was Galatians 4:16-20. Paul asked the Galatians this question: "Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?" This is our third and final sign of drifting. Have you ever been angry with a loved one for telling you somethi

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we continued our discussion about how to tell if we are spiritually drifting. What do we do when we find ourselves losing our fire and passion for spiritual freedom? Like the seed planted among the thorns in Luke 8, the cares of the world can threaten to choke out our passion for the Gospel. Our Scripture reference this morning was Galatians 4:12-15

Today on Karl and Crew Mornings, we began a discussion about how to know if we are spiritually drifting. One way to tell is by noticing when we have moved from dynamic relationship to mundane ritual in our walk with Jesus. Our Scripture reference this morning was Galatians 4:7-11. The Galatians start strong, but they begin to drift. Paul reminds them (and us) of the truth--tha
