Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “Five Christmas Promises,” with Philip Miller, who discussed one of the promises: God sees your need and hears your prayer. We turned to Exodus 3:7-8, where we see that God listened to the cries and prayers of the Israelites when they were in Egypt; they were not unheard. Philip Miller is the Senior Pastor of Moody Church in Chicago. His voice can also be heard on the weekly Moody Church Hour radio broadcast. Then, starting on January 5th, you can listen to Pastor Philip on the upcoming daily program, Living Hope. We then had Bill Gaither join us to talk about his experience in the gospel music industry and his upcoming Christmas 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.” Bill will be bringing the Homecoming Christmas Tour to Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, IL, on Friday, December 12, at 7 pm. We also had Boyd Bailey join us to talk about the beauty of joyful giving. Boyd is currently the President of the National Christian Foundation of Georgia, where he helps families steward their generosity through donor-advised funds. Boyd is also the founder of Wisdom Hunters, a ministry whose devotional emails help more than 100,000 readers connect with Christ each day. He also wrote the new book, "The Power of Generosity: Experiencing God's Amazing Abundance." You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
