  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Welcome to the forums!

I would say that you are awaking at that time because you may have been praying about such a thing and the Lord knows when someone on air will be speaking
about it and is answering your prayer that way.

Have you taken any of the things you've heard and applied them?

I hope you stay around and join in the conversations with others here. :wave:

Well ... several things are going on here.

First of all, the reason you're hearing that at that very time is because the radio preacher can't afford the more desirable prime time hours on the radio. It's like three times as much for a 2pm - 3pm slot than a 2am - 3am slot. Money talks in radio and TV.

So, even though the guy at 2am is better for you than the one at 2pm, he has to take what he can get.

Sooooo, that means you're getting a better preacher, and is why some of his programs are reaching something in you.

Also, with that said, obviously there are few people who are up that late. Mostly they're night shift workers or folks who have trouble sleeping (like my sister Erin) so they are listening to either be inspired so they can do a better job, or they're listening to relax and feel the joy of the Lord which brings rest to weary bodies.

Then, after all this, God wakes you up and says, "Hey. I want you to hear this." Of course you hear the preacher, not God, but who else would wake you up at the right moment?

See?

All good things
Emmy
