Today on The Bill Bunkley Show from sunny Tampa! Bill contrasts our mild, sunset-perfect weather with a “monster” winter storm set to devour the North — ice-crushing trees, black ice dangers, and days of travel disruption.

Key highlights in today’s briefing:
Why Floridians are truly blessed — and how to pray for and prepare loved ones facing extreme cold, power loss, and senior vulnerabilities up north
The 2026 National March for Life in Washington, D.C.: VP J.D. Vance speaks to thousands under the theme “Life is a Gift,” joined by pro-life leaders affirming America as pro-baby and pro-family
Big Florida news: HJR 583 advances to enshrine religious protections in public schools — shielding student-led prayer, religious clubs, artwork, and expression from discrimination
Bob Stevens (Focus on the Family) shares wise, practical steps to reset those stalled 2026 goals with tiny, sustainable actions rooted in faith and motivation

Call the studio: 877-943-9673. Weekdays at 3 PM on Let’s Talk Faith.

Sunshine State Blessings vs. Northern Deep Freeze: March for Life, Faith in Schools & Fresh Starts

Join Bill Bunkley on this Friday edition of The Bill Bunkley Show for a heartfelt Briefing at the intersection of faith and life. Broadcasting live from Tampa on Salem Radio and streaming worldwide at LetsTalkFaith.com, Bill opens with deep sorrow over the crash of an Agape Flights missionary plane in Haiti's mountains—no survivors believed, and prayers are urgently needed for grieving families of these dedicated servants who deliver aid across the Caribbean.

Bill updates the high-profile abduction case of Nancy Guthrie in Tucson, Arizona (mother of NBC's Savannah Guthrie), including FBI involvement, a bogus ransom demand arrest, and investigative challenges. He breaks down the massive Wall Street rally as the Dow hits 50,000 for the first time, with tech stocks rebounding amid Bitcoin volatility, gold surges, and a shift toward value stocks—practical insights for retirees and investors from a balanced, faith-informed viewpoint.

In the Middle East, Bill examines the high-stakes U.S.-Iran talks in Oman, President Trump's tough decisions amid carrier groups in position, Iran's weakened state after brutal crackdowns, and the potential for regime change or major military action—with biblical end-times context from Ezekiel and Daniel. He stresses prayer for wisdom in leadership and vigilance against global terror threats.

Plus, an inspiring conversation with Robyn Chambers of Focus on the Family about the 2026 March for Life in D.C.—electric energy from young pro-lifers, Vice President J.D. Vance's passionate address, the alarming rise of chemical abortions (now 70% of cases, with serious risks to women), and how churches can step up as refuges offering love, support, and practical help for women choosing life.

Bill wraps with weekend highlights: the Winter Olympics opening ceremony, Super Bowl 60, and a reminder to gather in church or online for worship.

Tune in weekdays at 3 PM ET on LetsTalkFaith.com—call in at 877-943-9673 to join the conversation. New episodes post shortly after airing.

The Briefing: Tragic Missionary Crash in Haiti, Ongoing Search for Nancy Guthrie, Market Surge & Middle East Tensions

Join Bill Bunkley today for a powerful, faith-informed dive into the stories shaping our nation and our communities. The country's attention remains locked on the alarming forced disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, mother of TODAY show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, as federal and local authorities intensify their search in Arizona amid reports of abduction, a possible ransom note, and signs of foul play—now entering its fifth day with no suspects identified. We'll also cover President Trump's participation and message at the National Day of Prayer Breakfast, highlighting calls for unity, faith, and national healing. Closer to home in Florida, praise God for His protection: authorities arrested a 14-year-old linked to violent extremist chatrooms who allegedly planned a mass shooting at a Wimauma church, averting potential tragedy through swift action. On the pro-life front, encouraging data shows abortions in Florida have dropped dramatically—down nearly half since Roe v. Wade's overturn and further plummeting under the six-week ban—with fewer procedures reported in 2025. Plus, a major win for child protection as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons issues a clear position recommending against gender-reassignment surgeries (including breast/chest, genital, and facial procedures) for those under 19, citing insufficient evidence of benefits outweighing risks in this vulnerable population. Bill brings his signature Christian worldview to these headlines and much more—don't miss this timely episode packed with insight, prayer, and perspective at the intersection of faith and current events!

Nation in Crisis: Nancy Guthrie Abduction, Trump at Prayer Breakfast, Foiled Church Shooting & More

Join Bill Bunkley live from the Florida State Capitol in Tallahassee for this February 3, 2026, edition of The Bill Bunkley Show, where faith intersects with today's pressing issues across Central Florida and beyond. Broadcasting on Let's Talk Faith and streaming globally at letstalkfaith.com, Bill dives into a packed briefing: he shares his firsthand support for key legislation, including Senate Bill 1632 (the "Sharia Law Bill") to prohibit ideologies inconsistent with American principles, Senate Bill 52 enhancing volunteer security at places of worship, anti-DEI measures in local government, religious expression protections in public schools, and bans on sex reassignment procedures for minors. He breaks down the exciting developments in Tampa Bay baseball, recapping Governor Ron DeSantis and MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred's press conference backing a proposed new Rays stadium and mixed-use complex on Hillsborough College's Dale Mabry campus—complete with the team's commitment to cover at least 50% of costs—while stressing the urgency as time ticks down and other Florida cities vie for the franchise. Bill also addresses the harsh winter freeze's toll on agriculture, detailing damage to Plant City-area strawberry crops (with blackened blossoms and lost early harvests critical for Valentine's Day) and threats to tropical fish farms in southwest Hillsborough County, urging prayers for farmers facing financial hardship. Nationally, he covers the end of the brief government shutdown after the House's narrow vote and President Trump's expected signature. The highlight arrives in hour two: an uplifting interview with CPA and author Joseph Passaretti, who shares his resilient "My Journey" through diagnoses of multiple myeloma, amyloidosis, and later prostate cancer—offering hope, inspiration, and practical encouragement for those battling serious illness and their caregivers, emphasizing faith, normalcy, strong medical teams, and unwavering belief in God's strength. Call in at 877-943-9673 to weigh in on Rays baseball in Tampa, pray for farmers, or share your thoughts—don't miss this blend of timely news, legislative insight, and faith-affirming stories!
