Mid-days With Lauree

If you fear you've written to many "IOU's" to God that you can't cash, don't worry friend. There's grace for that!

God is the mender on your broken heart. But to do that, he first needs all of the broken pieces.

Friend, if you're struggling right now to believe that you've could experience God's grace, I've got some good news for you.God's grace is like any present: It's not earned, it's given out of love.

If you can just feel it in your chest, the stress in your world right now. Maybe you're on the verge of taking it out on someone. I think we all have been there. I came across something that really helped me and I hope it might help you too.

If you’re struggling to feel that Christmas Spirit, we've got a brand new Devotional called "Christmas Through Their Eyes: Lessons from 12 Men and Women in the Christmas Story" like Mary, the Mother of Jesus...

When do you decorate your Christmas tree? In a recent study, 25% of people said they did this past weekend (the first weekend of December), another 25% will this weekend (the second weekend of December, and 5% said wait until Christmas Eve.How about you?

Though the world may seem like it's full of senseless violence, hate will lose every time.

If you we're in the presence of someone going into labor? I don't think I would, but one 10-year-old lived up to her name through this "miracle" delivery!

If you find yourself really struggling to find things to be thankful for this time of year, I get it. I've been down some pretty dark roads, but I just want you to know: Life is better because your in it.

If you need a little encouragement today, I've actually got a letter with your name on it!

If you or someone you know is battling addiction, I pray this testimony can be an encouragement.

Friend, don't be ashamed of your story. You never know who God will impact with it!

I recently got to chat with for King & Country's Luke Smallbone and he's got a really interesting outlook on suffering that I think may bless you today!

From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

As humans, we make snap judgements everyday. Some of those judgements are fair and some, if we're honest, are unfair and leave us feeling not so great in the aftermath. Myself included. The good news is, grace is new each and every morning.

On this episode of Old Dad / New Dad, Sonny and Josh discuss what it looks like to have gratitude this holiday season even if you find yourself in the middle of a challenging time.Thanks so much for listening to Old Dad / New Dad, brought to you by the KCBI Podcast Network. We'd love if you'd subscribe and leave a review wherever you listen to podcast that way we can grow the show and more people can join in on the encouraging conversation!

Thanksgiving is this week which is an exciting time for many, but according to a recent, that might not be the case for your Gen Z relatives.

I can't help but smile when I see how you have shown love through Faith Hope Love. The last we looked, there are over 16,000 cards out there circulating in DFW right now and I just heard a story from one of our listeners that might be my new favorite! is one of my favorite acts, she said whenever I see a cashier having a tough day I always look at the candy selection by the register and ask, “excuse me, I can’t decide. What’s your favorite?” Then I buy whatever they say and hand it to them after the sale and tell them they’re doing a great job and I hope this candy and card makes your day even better. That’s FHL at kcbi.org

for KING & COUNTRY's A Drummer Boy Christmas is coming to the American Airlines Center Thanksgiving Weekend, Sunday November 27th, and I had the opportunity to chat with one half of the sibling duo, Luke Smallbone (the tall one haha!)We talked about the upcoming show, why he's currently on the set of a movie, and Luke has a special message for those who feel like they're without hope.

We are T-minus 7 days and counting till thanksgiving, and its never too late to look around and see what you can be thankful for.
