Demond Wilson--best-known for his role as Lamont Sanford in the 70's sitcom "Sanford & Son"-- graciously joined the program in January 2019, just a few months into the Tim DeMoss Show's existence. With his homegoing at age 79 this past weekend, we re-aired that conversation in its entirety today. Wilson was funny, serious, godly, insightful--and kept TIm on his toes the entire time :). Wilson began by indirectly referencing the recently-missed double doink field goal attempt by former Eagle Cody Parkey (as the Birds hung on for a 16-15 playoff win v the Bears). Over the rest of the show, he shared about his acting career, comedy, Sanford & Son and his relationship with Redd Foxx, thoughts on the military (in which he served 1966-1968), his wife and their (at the time) 45-year marriage, being a father, and his faith in the Lord (as well as a project he was working on at the time). Psalm 90:10 comes to mind initially: "The length of our days is seventy years--or eighty, if we have the strength." Even moreso, John 14:1-4 provides much hope: "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going."

Scott gives insight into the work of Pre-Born (both during January ("Sanctity of Human Life Month") and year 'round). He also offers stories of women who have been helped and explains the support given in the office visit and the ultrasound itself are just the beginning of a mentorship program that can last a couple of years, including receiving access to necessary resources for women.

This unexpected surrender sets off an unlikely chain of events and one of the most significant, but little-known, cases in American history. Tapper, a Philadelphia native, also makes no secret of his Phillies and Eagles fandom and shares a story about an autographed Larry Bowa cap gifted to him via a character from the sitcom "Happy Days"... :) Aaron Nola (longtime Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher) also graciously spends time with us with a look at his baseball career (from Little League until now), as well as his family, faith in the Lord, and charity work (including Team Red, White & Blue which focuses on veterans' health & wellness and the ALS Association (Nola's uncle passed away from ALS several years ago)). A week ago, Nola closed out a challenging regular season with an 8-inning, 9-strikeout gem, allowing just 2 hits and 1 run in a 3-1 win over Minnesota and moved into 2nd place on the Phillies' pitchers all-time strikeouts list (behind only Phillies legend Steve Carlton). Our proverbial "cherry on the sundae"-- Now THAT'S Punny--caps off the show. Sports clips: Trea Turner (Philadelphia Phillies shortstop) Rob Thomson (Philadelphia Phillies manager) Sam Ersson (Philadelphia Flyers goaltender) Nick Sirianni (Philadelphia Eagles head coach)

Today's show focuses on the home stretch of our September partnership with GFA World to help fund national missionaries throughout Africa & Asia. National missionaries are already physically in the countries they seek to serve (making it very cost-effective to send them) and typically know the language and customs, facilitating a quicker and more direct path in sharing the gospel. With deep reliance on the Lord and through fervent prayer, these dedicated servants plant churches and transform communities from the inside out, fulfilling the Great Commission by bringing hope to those in greatest need. Our station family goal is to sponsor 20 national missionaries; entering today, we're about halfway there, which we're very grateful for! A $540 one-time gift (or $45/month for a year) can cover the costs of one of the 10 missionaries remaining. Your prayers are appreciated as we close things out, and to help on any level (1 missionary, towards a missionary, or multiple missionaries) it's 866-659-7361 or by clicking here (where you can also see some of the national missionaries we're aiming to sponsor). Thank you so much from GFA World & WFIL!
