The Joy of Good News - Part 2 with Guest Ken Davis
Some people feel constricted by God's rules, fearful that they'll be missing out on living the "good life." On today’s edition of Family Talk, humorist Ken Davis concludes his hilarious performance as he draws from his personal experience as a pilot. He explains that unless he abides by and respects the rules of aviation, he can't expect a safe and successful flight. Similarly, a man wedded to his compass truly has the freedom of the sea. Learn more about Ken’s discovery that obeying God's "rule book" isn't constrictive but actually liberating!

The Joy of Good News - Part 1 with Guest Ken Davis
When Christian humorist Ken Davis was in high school, it was painfully obvious that he didn't fit in, especially with the "popular" kids. By his own description, he had the hand-eye coordination of a carp. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Ken will share stories of how he learned to live as though he had nothing to prove, and that his value as a person was forever established on the cross of Jesus Christ. Listen and be prepared with tissues, because you may laugh so hard that you’ll cry!

She encourages listeners to hold fast to their faith and convictions in the midst of the changing tide. In John 16:33, Jesus says, “In this world you will have tribulation. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Priests and People for Life - Part 2 with Guest Frank Pavone
During His earthly ministry, Jesus reached out to the marginalized of His day, such as the lepers, the Samaritans, and the tax collectors. Inspired by Jesus’ example, Frank Pavone has led Priests for Life for 30 years to save vulnerable, pre-born children. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Pavone points out that if Jesus is Lord of human life, then babies in the womb are sacred. And, by definition, the mother, the father, the doctor, and the government should all affirm God’s highest creation. Matthew 25:40 says, “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’”
About Today's Guest: Frank Pavone
Frank Pavone was ordained as a Roman Catholic priest in 1988 by Cardinal John O’Connor, and served until November 6, 2022, when he was unjustly dismissed from the priesthood. He serves as the national director of Priests for Life. Frank previously served on the pro-life and Catholic advisory boards of both of President Trump’s election campaigns, and he currently is part of former President Trump’s National Faith Advisory Board. Frank is the author of four books, "Ending Abortion: Not Just Fighting It," "Pro-life Reflections for Every Day," "Abolishing Abortion," and "Proclaiming the Message of Life." He resides in Florida.
