Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme, “First Principle.” The author of “Ensnared: Overcoming the Darkness of the New Age and Occult with the Light of God’s Truth,” Jac Marino Chen, shared how Jesus delivered her from abuse, addiction, and the occult, encouraging listeners that no one is beyond the reach of God’s saving grace and transforming power. The President of Dallas Theological Seminary, Dr. Mark Yarborough, drew from his book The Rekindled Heart to share practical, biblical essentials for reviving a fading faith and living with renewed passion for Christ and His mission. We then turned to our listeners on the phone line and asked, “Did the Lord ever use Moody Radio to allow you to hear exactly what you needed in that moment?” You can hear the highlights of today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

Today on Karl and Crew, we continued our theme, “First Principle,” where we explored the difference between decision and surrender. Dannah Gresh, author of “And the Bride Wore White,” shared insights on purity culture, emphasizing that true purity is found in Christ and urging the Church to embrace a biblical vision of sexual integrity with both truth and grace. Dr. John Mabus, a professor from Moody Bible Institute highlighted that genuine salvation requires wholehearted surrender to Jesus, focusing on discipleship and a life transformed by Him. We also engaged our listeners, asking, “If the foundation of your salvation was off from the very beginning, how would you know?” You can hear the highlights of today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
