PR0-LIFE CELEBRITIES SHARE THEIR STORIES

Discussed by Victor Nieves
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

Hollywood has become notorious for depravity and radical pro-abortion support, but there are some actors who have boldly taken a stand for life. Often their defense of life has come at a cost to them both personally and professionally, yet they do not waver.

Today, we are airing a special with Life Issues Institute President, Victor Nieves, and Hollywood stars Jennifer O’Neil and Kevin and Sam Sorbo join Victor, sharing their stories of being pro-life in Hollywood.

Mark Lanier has a very special lesson for us this week with Lyndon Drake, an Artificial Intelligence Fellow at the University of Oxford.

If you have a prayer request, need Scripture encouragement, or would like a copy of Mark’s lessons each week, email wantmore@biblical-literacy.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, Mark and Lyndon discussed The Lord’s Prayer and the importance of forgiving others just as God forgives us.

Personal question: Is Lyndon good at forgiving others? How has The Lord’s Prayer helped him be a better example?

How can we transition between what we know to do and what we are able to do?

Why does Lyndon use many, many Scriptures when he preaches? Why does he also use The Lord’s Prayer in every sermon?

What is the best book Lyndon has read (other than the Bible)? Reference: “Paul and the Gift” by John Barclay

Artificial Intelligence: Should we be scared? Is AI useful? Can AI be destructive?

PRAYER

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Psalm 23: A Psalm of David

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.

He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me;

your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
