Dr. E. Calvin Beisner joins the Tim DeMoss Show today :).  He is co-author and co-editor of Climate & Energy-The Case for Realism. Beisner views anthropogenic global warming as real but unlikely to become catastrophic and believes the cost/benefit ratio of adapting to whatever future climate that lies ahead as better than trying to control global temperature by substituting wind, solar and other renewable energy sources for the hydrocarbon (aka "fossil") fuels. Beisner is Founder, President, and National Spokesman of The Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation. He has written over 15 books, edited more than 30, contributed to over 35, and published thousands of articles, popular and scholarly. Climate & Energy-The Case for Realism is comprised of 16 chapters written by a dozen experts including co-editor David R. Legates, former professor of geography at the University of Delaware. Chapter titles include "Introduction: Life after Climate Change--Better Than Before," "The History and Politics of Climate Change," "The Science of Climate" and "How Economic Thinking Can Help Tackle Climate Change." Multiple additional chapters outlining the role of the Sun, oceans, evaporation, precipitation & clouds, as well as of greenhouse gases, are found within Climate & Energy's pages. You can keep up with Dr. Beisner at www.cornwallalliance.org. On a related note, during April, should you make a donation of any amount to the Cornwall Alliance, they will send you a copy of Climate & Energy (just request it when making your donation).

Evangelist Joey Perez is our guest again on the program today to share more of his testimony, as well as regarding next week's spiritual warfare seminar (April 10-12) at Franconia Mennonite Church (613 Harleysville Pike in Telford, PA). You can get details at www.joeyperezministries.org or by calling 215-520-1204. Perez' story, much of which is chronicled in his book I Lived To Tell About It, revolves around the amazing power of God in rescuing him out of a life of violence, drugs and rebellion and bringing Joey "into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins" (Colossians 1:13b-14). Since his conversion in 1979, Perez has been used by the Lord as an international speaker, author, and founder & pastor of Worldwide Evangelistic Ministries, Inc & Church. (Part 1 of our conversation is available via yesterday's podcast dated April 4, 2024) Prompted by this morning's earthquake in the vicinity of Whitehouse Station, NJ (and felt in multiple surrounding states), Tim offers his thoughts as well as Scriptures for consideration (including Psalm 46 & 146 and Matthew 24 & 25).

Very grateful to have my son Toby DeMoss join me in-studio today. Toby sustained a head/neck injury in May 2019, blindsided by a friend's bear hug while having a baseball catch. Toby went from being a travel baseball player & very active young man to battling head/neck pain ever since, withdrawing from college and facing a number of other challenges. 20+ specialists later, a lot is not yet clear, though there has been some progress :). Toby shares some of his story (then through now)--including much good that has happened as he has trusted in the Lord (Romans 8:28). Toby then gives a big ol' assist to his dad as together they interview Simon Sinek--Toby's favorite leadership educator and storyteller. Sinek is author of the global bestseller "Start With WHY" and NY Times bestsellers "Leaders Eat Last" and "The Infinite Game." He hosts a podcast titled "A Bit of Optimism" which we spend time on (among other things). You can find out more at www.simonsinek.com.

Reiner is Jewish but adds he tries to follow the teachings of Jesus, especially do unto others as you would have them do unto you (Matthew 7:12); Partland has a Christian-upbringing background although he does not purport to be practicing the faith. Pastor Allen Jackson (whose "Allen Jackson Ministries" radio program is WFIL's Ministry of the Month in February), also checks in.

A real treat today to have Mark DeMoss--founder of The DeMoss Group PR firm, author, and Tim's cousin--in-studio. Mark's dad Arthur & Tim's dad Robert were brothers. Mark shares about his newly-updated The Little Red Book of Wisdom. Originally released in 2007 and again in 2011, the current version has been rewritten with two brand new chapters on Gratitude and Finishing Well added too.

Jim Capobianco, Oscar-nominated writer of Ratatouille, kicks off the show with conversation about his new project, "The Inventor." The film focuses on Leonardo da Vinci's life, with themes about one's legacy, how you choose to live your life & how those choices influence others. "The Inventor" uses a combination of stop-motion puppet and hand drawn animation (rather than computer graphics, since da Vinci's story naturally lends itself to being told through handcrafted filmmaking arts). Capobianco has worked on films ranging from The Lion King, A Bug's Life and Toy Story 2 to Monsters, Inc. & Finding Nemo. Daniel Gil, 2020 "American Ninja Warrior" Grand Champion--and 7-time national finalist--calls the show to share about his book Kingdom Ninja.

Don Argott and Sheena M. Joyce, producers of the new Amazon Prime documentary, “Kelce” join the show today. The film follows Eagles team captain & All-Pro center Jason Kelce during what he thought might be his final NFL season (2022-23). Multiple storylines are spotlighted along the way: the success of Jason's Eagles and of his brother Travis' Kansas City Chiefs (whom the Eagles met in the Super Bowl), the popularity of the podcast Jason & Travis started, the pregnancy of Jason's wife Kylie (due to give birth less than 2 weeks after the Super Bowl), and Jason's parents Ed & Donna (Please note, the documentary does contain a large volume of profanities and carries a "YA-16+" rating by Amazon). Garry "G" Cobb (11-year NFL veteran (Eagles, Lions, Cowboys)) and longtime local broadcaster, checks in as well. Apropos to the Kelce documentary conversation, Cobb's current job involves offering counsel to NFL players as they transition from the NFL to retirement (voluntary or not, often at a very early age). Cobb shares how a player (and anyone) can find one's identity and worth--and true satisfaction--in knowing God, independent of achievements or circumstances.

We conclude the program with part of a powerful conversation with Christian pop singer Tammy Trent (full interview available via the TDS 07-22-20 podcast). Tammy lost her husband Trent in a tragic diving accident on September 10, 2001 while on a brief vacation following a missions trip.

Comedian Jeff Allen joins the program to talk about his new book Are We There Yet?--My Journey from a Messed-Up to Meaningful Life. Allen grew up in Chicago (his father troweled the last step of the highest point of the Sears Tower) and was on the Philadelphia Phillies' radar to potentially draft when he was a freshman in college. Alcohol, drugs and other problems derailed Allen's athletic career, and over time his life began to spiral out of control (including narrowly escaping going to jail for 3-5 years for being caught with cocaine in his car...and just two nights later, driving home the wrong way on the expressway). Married with children, his challenges grew--when in his darkest season, Allen discovered the Source of true meaning while reading the book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament. Are We There Yet? is Salem (WFIL's parent company)'s September Book of the Month. You can enter to win it on the CONTESTS page at wfil.com :).

"Yo Yo", whose acting career includes roles in the Oscar-nominated film "Boyz In The Hood" and the 90's sitcom "Martin," talks about her role in securing material for the in-progress building of the world's largest Hip Hop memorabilia collection. The permanent home for the Universal Hip Hop Museum opens in 2024. Our Famous Friday Show, on a rare note, does not conclude with Now THAT'S Punny but rather the classic "Jerusalem Dragnet" by the Christian comedy team Isaac Air Freight. The sketch is included in the podcast in full with the permission of Dan Rupple, founding member of IAF (and former Production Supervisor for "The Price Is Right").
