Huckabee, Trump Congratulate CRM on 50 Years

Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee (1996-2007) congratulated Coral Ridge Ministries on its 50th anniversary at a Golden Gala celebration November 16, at The Boca Raton. Huckabee spoke just days after President-elect Donald Trump asked him to serve as the U.S. Ambassador to Israel.  A long-time friend of Israel who has visited the Jewish state some 100 times since he first went there in 1973, Huckabee said the opportunity to be ambassador, “which I was not expecting,” was a “God thing.” Huckabee’s new boss, President-elect Donald J. Trump also sent congratulations: “For five decades this ministry has been used to transform […]

Dr. Bob Barnes and Torrey Roberts: Turning Christmas Upside Down

“More blessed to give rather than receive?” You’ve got to be kidding! What kind of a statement is that? That’s ridiculous! Of course it’s more awesome to receive than it is to give. That’s what we’ve been taught all our lives. That’s what makes us feel good isn’t it; getting more things? But what if it were true? It’s kind of like eating vegetables. Once I was taught to eat them, I eventually liked them. Then I really liked them. Then I discovered that I felt better when I ate my vegetables. It actually made me healthier than my previous […]

Rob Hoskins: Living in the Messy Middle

If I’d been born at any other time in human history, I’d be blind right now. Weeks after my first daughter was born, I woke up one morning and couldn’t see anything out of my left eye. I went to the doctor and then to the hospital. Sure enough, they started examining my left eye. They brought in a specialist. Then another. Then a third. You know something’s really wrong when they bring in a third specialist. They looked at me and said, “You have the thinnest retinas we’ve ever seen. Your left one is fully detached. Your right one is about to […]

Dr. Debra A. Schwinn: A Sound Like No Other

As we close out the year, it’s a fitting time to reflect on the love of God and the true gift of Christmas — His Son, Jesus Christ. In the midst of the season’s hustle and bustle, may we be reminded of the ultimate reason for our joy: the fulfillment of God’s promises and His boundless grace toward us. I want to share my reflection from PBA’s Advent Guide on my most memorable Christmas sound. I pray this article is a blessing to you and your family as you remember not just His blessings, but His promises to us.  On […]

Andrew Holmes: You Are Good News

It’s that time of year again where, if we’re not careful, we’ll miss an incredible chance to really slow down and reflect on the gift that is Jesus. Around 4KIDS, I am watching the team prepare for our annual Gift of Hope Toy Drive. These gifts, so carefully and lovingly collected by the community, allow our foster and adoptive families to have gifts they can give to the children in their homes. Passing on a gift is at the core of who we are and at the core of the gospel. This time of year you’re going to hear a […]

Dr. Tommy Boland: They Really Were Wise Men!

“After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, ‘Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him’” (Matthew 2:1-2). It’s one of the iconic images of Christmas, instantly recognizable to Christians and unbelievers alike: three Magi — or “wise men,” as many Bible translations render the Greek word magos — traveling across the desert, following a bright star in the east. The other image of the Magi we immediately […]

What’s the most generous thing that’s ever happened to you?

As we approach the holiday season, Good News Wants to Know… What’s the most generous thing that’s ever happened to you? Way back in 1993 I got to be a bat boy for the Florida Marlins. It was their first season. I was 16 and trying to pretend it wasn’t the coolest thing that had ever happened to me. My big brother Chris saw through it all and spent countless hours collecting every single baseball card of that first team.  This was before Ebay was a thing. Chris hunted down every trade and franchise draft pick at local card stores. He paid […]

Franklin Graham: Pray Fervently for Our Nation

American voters have decided decisively who will be the next president of the United States. Congratulations to Donald J. Trump on being elected the 47th president of the United States. I pray that you will look to God every day for His guidance and wisdom. Months of election primaries, campaign rallies, political advertisements, nominating conventions, candidate endorsements, debates, press conferences and media interviews have finally culminated in citizens voting for Trump to return to the White House as the nation’s commander-in-chief.  Voters also elected candidates for Congress as well as governor, state legislators and local school boards even while approving […]
