Get Up! Mornings dove into a powerful blend of inspiration and heritage today. Erica led the Faith Walk with a deep meditation on John 3:16, encouraging listeners to explore the cause, cost, condition, and consequence of salvation. This verse, often called the “Golden Text of the Bible,” is central to understanding God's boundless love—sacrificing His only Son so believers may obtain eternal life—and highlights how meditating on scripture daily sustains hope and faith through life’s challenges. Through bringing this meaningful verse into everyday reflection, the devotional segment invited listeners to internalize the Word deeply and strengthen their trust in God’s plan.  

The show’s True Hollywood Bible Story featured the confrontation and covenant between Jacob and Laban from Genesis 31. This story underscores divine guidance—God prompting Jacob to leave after 20 years, leading to Laban’s confrontation, and both men sealing a non‑aggression pact with a rock heap as witness, invoking God as their overseer. The narrative highlights reconciliation and God’s faithful presence amid familial tension.  

The highlight interview was with gospel-soul legend Candi Staton, celebrating her new single “My God Has a Telephone”—a moving duet with William Bell—off her 32nd album Back to My Roots. This collab marks her first Grammy nomination in 40 years, a testament to her enduring influence in gospel music. Candi shared that working with Bell rekindled lifelong friendship and spiritual synergy, and the single’s theme of prayer as a direct line to God resonated deeply in their shared faith journey.  

These segments—reflection on scripture, powerful biblical storytelling, and celebrating gospel legacy—wove a morning rich in spiritual depth and cultural roots.
