On this Freedom Friday, we wrapped up our weekly theme, “What is God’s Will for My Life?” with a discussion about turning from the world and choosing to serve and fear the Lord. We turned to Joshua 24:15, where we see Joshua tell the Israelites that they must choose whom they will serve: the world or the Lord. Joshua made it very clear who he serves as he said, “But as for me and my household, we serve the Lord.” We then turned to the phone lines to ask listeners to share a time they had an “as for me” moment when they chose to serve the Lord over the idols of man. Then we had Dr. Erwin Lutzer join us to discuss how to see the sovereignty of God in the face of unanswered prayers and not get discouraged by them. Dr. Lutzer is Pastor Emeritus of Moody Church. He is also the featured speaker on two radio programs: Running to Win and Songs in the Night. He also wrote several books, including his latest book, “Why Doesn’t God Answer My Prayers?” Then we had Bill Gaither join us to discuss his experience and motivation for serving the Lord through music. He also spoke about the 2026 Then Came the Morning tour. Bill is a Grammy Award-winning artist and a pioneering figure in Gospel music, and is celebrated for both his songwriting and mentorship. He is also the founder of The Bill Gaither Trio and is known for penning over 700 gospel songs, including timeless classics like “Because He Lives.” You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.  If you're looking to hear a particular segment from the show, look at the following time stamps:
