American Bible Society’s 2024 State of the Bible report highlights the impact of forgiveness and frequent Bible engagement on improving the overall quality of human life. On Monday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, John Plake, American Bible Society's Chief Program Officer, joins us to talk about Gen Z, 18-27 year olds, who are less connected with the church and Bible than older generations. They experience more stress and less hope, but those Gen Zs who engage in Scripture and can forgive another person with or without apology, score higher on the Human Flourishing scale than other young adults who don't read the Bible--but they also have the highest score of any generation.

If you want a very practical way to reach your community, your church should consider starting a Christian school. You can provide families with a place for their children to receive a great education in a safe environment that reinforces the values and principles they embrace. On Friday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, author and pastor Jimmy Scroggins shares how he and co-author of The Education Reformation, Trevin Wax, examine how the witness of church-based schools could lead to culture change through an evangelistic harvest—a powerful education reformation.

Each July we celebrate our freedom as a country and as individuals. As we consider the blessings of freedom, it is an excellent time to reflect on the history of our nation. On Independence Day, Paul Batura VP of Communications at FOTF joins us to talk about a popular growing debate--were our founding fathers Christian and is America founded on Christian principles? Understanding the history of our nation and its founders is vital knowledge that can translate to our daily life, and this history is important as we approach this upcoming holiday.

It is not easy to wait. We are used to getting things quickly. Dr. Ryan J. Cook, our devotional author for July's TITW tells us that as we begin our study of the second half of the book of Genesis, we meet Isaac’s son Jacob, a man who would learn a lot about waiting upon the Lord. Is there some area of your life where you are being required to wait? How has God worked during times of waiting in your past? As we start this month’s study, we ask You, Lord, to increase our faith in Your promises and to instill in us patience to wait for their fulfillment. What a joy it is to know that Your timing is perfect.
