Stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans, white with foam; God bless America, my home, sweet home.” Isn’t that a wonderful song? And every time we sing it it stirs up emotions in our souls. Since September the 11th, 2001, I really think that the slogan “God Bless America,” associated, of course, with Irving Berlin’s song from 1918, has sort of become our national anthem or our battle cry. The song, as a matter of fact, received very little attention when it was first released but Berlin revised and then rereleased it in 1938 when a new war, of course, was threatening Europe. He said he conceived the revised edition of the song as a plea for peace in an era when most Americans were hoping to avert American involvement in another foreign war. But the song retained its popularity even after America was drawn into World War II. --- Continue reading the transcript of this message at http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com no 25:00 http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com/podcast/audio/LWJ-11-13-2009-CraigConner-America,part2.mp3 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:01:47 -0600 the-challenges-of-military-personnel-2 Craig Conner, Phil Waldrep, Sam McElroy Have you wondered why God has blessed America?

Islam is also a law, it is politics, it is the whole of society and unfortunately, unlike Christianity where all the dying was done 2,000 years ago on a hill called Calvary, we know where we're going if we know Jesus Christ is-Roman 10:9 it says, "If you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe that the Father raised him from the dead you will be saved." So we don't have to worry about how we die. In Islam, there are young men who've been taught that it's all about dying the right way. And so we're confronting an enemy, an adversary, not just here in the United States like 9/11, but literally around the globe, where the adversary intends to die killing you, me, or anyone listening to this broadcast. --- Continue reading the transcript of this message at http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com no 25:00 http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com/podcast/audio/LWJ-11-07-2009-OliverNorth-ChallengesFacingMilitaryPersonnel.mp3 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 00:01:33 -0600 clebe-mcclarys-testimony-part-1 Oliver North, Phil Waldrep, Sam McElroy Have you thought success comes only to people who have perfect lives?

Today on Living With Joy, legendary television personality Art Linkletter shows from his life how you can find joy at any season of your life. Partial Transcript: I can see we have a few seniors here tonight and I’m delighted because as you know I am one. I’m constantly being reminded of it when people say to me, “Didn’t you used to be Art Linkletter?” One of my great grandchildren – I have 14 great grandchildren – he’s 10 years old and he said, “Great grandpa, could you come out to my school sometime and talk to the kids in my class?” I said, “Sure if you want me to.” Later he came back and he said, “What am I gonna say?” I said, “Ian, I’ve interviewed 27,000 children on the air. I have never told one of them what to say because they can think of things that I wouldn’t have thought of or wouldn’t say if I did think of them and so I’ll just leave it up to you.” --- Continue reading the transcript of this message at http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com no 25:00 http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com/podcast/audio/LWJ-10-14-2009-ArtLinkletter-MyStory.mp3 Tue, 13 Oct 2009 00:01:26 -0500 influence-of-my-grandparents-part-1 Will Graham, Phil Waldrep, Sam McElroy Today on Living With Joy, Billy and Ruth Graham’s grandson, Will Graham, sits down with Phil Waldrep and talks honestly about the influence of his grandparents on his life. Today on Living With Joy, Billy and Ruth Graham’s grandson, Will Graham, sits down with Phil Waldrep and talks honestly about the influence of his grandparents on his life. Partial Transcript: Will Graham: Well, I grew up in western North Carolina, a small town called Boone, home of Appalachian State University, and as a matter of fact the reason why we ended up growing up in Boone is because my dad – the only school that would accept my dad - was Appalachian State University. It's the only school that allowed him to come in on a probation basis. My dad wasn't the most studious type of person and so Boone became home for us. And I remember when I was very young, about seven years old, we went to a Christian Missionary Alliance there in Boone. --- Continue reading the transcript of this message at http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com no 25:00 http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com/podcast/audio/LWJ-10-13-2009-WillGraham-InfluenceofmyGrandparents,part2.mp3 Mon, 12 Oct 2009 00:01:43 -0500 having-a-relationship-with-jesus-part-1-1 Will Graham, Phil Waldrep, Sam McElroy Today on Living With Joy, Billy and Ruth Graham’s grandson, Will Graham, sits down with Phil Waldrep and talks honestly about the influence of his grandparents on his life.

Today on Living With Joy, Bible teacher Priscilla Shirer reminds us through a Biblical character how special you are. Partial Transcript: I guess it was about two years ago or so that I was traveling from Nashville to Dallas. I’ll never forget this trip because something really unique and interesting happened while I was traveling. I was at the Nashville airport, and I was getting ready to get on a flight to get home to Dallas. I had one of my little boys with me at the time. It was his birthday weekend, so he was traveling with us on that occasion, a special little birthday thing, and, of course, my husband, Jerry, was there. And so you know all the chaos that goes into traveling with children, and so I was gathering up bags and everything as they called for the people to start boarding the flight. --- Continue reading the transcript of this message at http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com no 25:00 http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com/podcast/audio/LWJ-10-09-2009-PriscillaShirer-HavingaRelationshipWithJesus,part2.mp3 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 00:01:43 -0500 lwj10082009-priscilla-shirer-having-a-relat Priscilla Shirer, Phil Waldrep, Sam McElroy Do you ever wonder if God sees you as someone special?

You may think God cannot use people who have learning disabilities. Today on Living With Joy, Casting Crowns lead singer Mark Hall sits down with Phil Waldrep to talk openly about his struggles with ADD. Partial Transcript: Phil Waldrep: Well Mark Hall of Casting Crowns I want to thank you for joining us just for a few moments just to talk about your life and the ministry of Casting Crowns. Mark Hill: Thank you very much for having us. Phil: Well I'm just excited to be able to talk and there's so much that I want to ask and I know things that our listeners want to know. Let's just start with something that I'm sure will interest a lot of our listeners - tell us just how did Casting Crowns come to be? The Casting Crowns we know today. After all you were just a regular guy at First Baptist Church in Daytona Beach, Florida and the next day it seems - at least to some of us - that you were the lead singer for one of the most successful Christian groups in America. So how did this Casting Crowns ministry come to be? Mark: Well I've been a youth pastor for around 18 years. That's all I've ever done - it's what I want to be when I grow up. I'm not aspiring to be a senior pastor one day. This is what God's called me to do and music has always been a tool that I've used to reach teenagers. --- Continue reading the transcript of this message at http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com no 25:00 http://www.livingwithjoyradio.com/podcast/audio/LWJ-10-07-2009-MarkHall-OvercomingObstacles.mp3 Tue, 06 Oct 2009 00:01:05 -0500 valley-of-baca-part-1 Junior Hill, Phil Waldrep, Sam McElroy Do you ever feel discouraged?
