Sarah Buzynski - The Battle for the Hearts and Minds of Our Children...One Mom's Story
Sarah Buzynski is "just a mom" who wants her kids to know Jesus and trust God's Word. When she heard about LifeWise curriculum -- a curriculum where kids can learn the Scriptures in a public school setting -- on Carmen LaBerge's Faith Radio program she was stirred by the Lord to investigate LifeWise, and then to get it set up in her local school district. In the process, Sarah unexpectedly ran into some resistance and learned that this would end up being more controversial than she ever imagined or intended. Through this, she is more aware of the spiritual battle that exists around us and she has a better understanding of the cost of discipleship that will be required of any Christian who desires to used in God's Kingdom.
Here's more about LifeWise:
Believe it or not, we can provide a Bible education class for our public school students DURING SCHOOL HOURS!
If you live, work, or worship in any of these area school districts, please sign the 'Interest List' saying, 'Yes, I'd like to see LifeWise Academy in my area!' Every signature helps SO much. Please share this post with friends and family who would love to bring a LifeWise program to Cedar Valley school districts.

The Boettger Family - Kingdom Parenting and Youth Sports (or Other Activities)
Tim, one of our radio preachers on The CC Broadcast, and Kris Boettger are parents to two successful athletes: Ike, former offensive lineman for the Iowa Hawkeyes and current NFL player, and Adrienne, who was a Division III All-America basketball player for Wartburg College in Waverly, IA. Despite their family's exposure to athletics at an elite level and Ike/Adrienne's impressive achievements, their first love is the Lord and living life according to his design. For all these reasons and more, they're the perfect people to have a conversation with about how to parent kids in a Christ-centered manner through the youth sports minefield. And the truths discussed here don't end with youth sports...this stuff can be applied to many other activities that kids are involved with today, where Christian parents need to do better, as a whole, at distinguishing themselves from the culture and the world around us.
