In continuing our study in the Book of Proverbs from last week, today Speaker Steve Hedgren has us focus our attention on the passage that describes “the virtuous woman” beginning in verse 10 of chapter 31. Then, in today’s Scripture reading, we see how she is a blessing to her husband as he sits with the elders at the gates of the city. Listen now as we study this final chapter in the Book of Proverbs and pass through this “gate of wisdom” that will help you in your daily walk with the Lord.

Today’s message takes its text from the greatest book of wisdom ever written – Proverbs. Its writer and complier, Solomon, one of the wisest men who ever lived, personifies “wisdom” in chapter 1 as a woman! What a very strong and emphatic way to make a point in Biblical times! Join us now as we enter this Gate of Wisdom – a gate that while figurative proclaims this spiritual truth in verse 7, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”

Today Speaker Steve Hedgren has us consider the gate referenced in Psalm 24. Here its writer, David, envisions the gates to the Heavenly city having to stretch to open wide as the Lord, The Mighty Conqueror, the King of Glory enters to take His rightful position on His throne. This bold personification also marks the way by which we can enter into the presence of Holy God by our acceptance of Jesus Christ. The One Who the Apostle John in the Book of Revelation also calls the King of Glory. Listen now, this gate is open for you.

Just the mention of the word “Paradise” brings thoughts of beauty, tranquility, good health and happiness. Today’s “gateway” is both spiritual and physical. It is a representation of Jesus Christ, Who while hanging on the cross at Calvary promised the repentant thief that He would be spending Eternity with Him. Join us now and accept Jesus Christ as Your Savior – He is your “Gateway to Paradise.”

Speaker Steve Hedgren concludes our series today with a special program for Easter Sunday. The days following Palm Sunday brought pain, suffering, and ultimately death on the cross at Calvary for Jesus Christ. But praise God, Jesus’ resurrection from the grave on this great day means that we also can have eternal life through Him! It's also a great day for you to make that eternal decision to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. We invite you to join Steve in our prayer of invitation following the message. May God bless you and strengthen your faith as you walk with Him everyday.

Our series continues today with a special message for Palm Sunday. Too often, this Sunday that precedes Easter, passes by without much recognition of the significance of what really happened when Jesus Christ rode through Jerusalem on a colt. Biblical prophecy was fulfilled! And the response of the people as they placed their garments down on the road in front of Jesus and waved palm branches was a joyful showing of their knowledge of this! Listen now and let your faith be strengthened by the miraculous event we know as Palm Sunday!

A "Golden Moment" is something that happens in life that is undeniably special. A small child's first steps or hitting a hole-in-one to win a golf tournament are just two examples of a "Golden Moment." This is also true in our spiritual life. Have you experienced a "Golden Moment" in your relationship with God? If so, this a good sign of how you're progressing in strengthening your faith. If not, don't despair. Join us now and see how much God really loves love you! A "Golden Moment" awaits you!
Series: Tough Faith for Tough Times
We can't always control the circumstances of life, but we can control what we think. The Bible talks about being changed by "the renewing of your mind" and it does so for a reason. For only when we let God change the way we think can we begin to see things like He does. Then our faith and trust in Him begins to grow stronger. Listen now and begin changing your mind to God's way of thinking.

No, we didn't get our programs mixed-up. And yes, we do know what today's date is. You see, the truth is, Thanksgiving is not something that's only recognized in November. It's something we do every day of the year! As Speaker Steve Hedgren points out, being thankful brings us closer to God. And being closer to God helps develop our relationship with Him, which is essential when things in life become difficult. Sound too simplistic? Well, try it! Join us and begin giving thanks to God today.

On today's program it could be said that we really get "to the heart of the matter." This is because having a "Tough Faith" that will sustain us in "Tough Times" begins in your heart. A quick glance at all the references found under the word "heart" in a Bible concordance makes this very clear. God wants us to worship Him from a heart – the center of the soul, will, thoughts, and emotions – that's pure. When was the last time you felt close to God? Join us now and let Him restore your heart.
