When We Love God and Love Others
Dr. Jeff McGee is on a mission to unify the Human Race. His passion and His purpose are well aligned and he works every day to bring people together. Personal experience, professional research, and a spiritual calling come together in his latest book entitled, “One Human Race: Five Stages to Empowering Transformative Change." If you have ever had a desire to see people come together but often aren’t sure where or how to personally start being part of the solution, this is the show. This timely book contains the guidance we all need to find what it takes to experience personally, and usher in collectively, a more peaceful and united life with others. Jesus boiled everything down to “loving God and loving others.” Dr. McGee digs deep into history and even deeper into God’s Word to help us all take meaningful steps to fulfilling Jesus’ words in us and around us. Purchase your copy of Dr. McGee’s new book at half price using the code, “PC” when you checkout.
When Every Day is a Bonus
The doctor said, “Kenn, I don’t know if you will make it to the surgery, much less through the surgery.”
Based on the test results Kenn Kington was a dead man walking. His numbers were 30 times worse than the worst numbers on the test scale and there was no logical reason to explain why Kenn's heart was still beating. But God answered prayer on Kenn’s behalf. He survived and God didn’t waste the opportunity. In Kenn’s latest book, and in this episode of the Beacon, he talks about what God taught him through the unexpected and difficult chaos of his experience. Listen and be encouraged. Share this episode with others and watch them be encouraged.
If you only have time to listen to one episode of the Beacon, listen to this one!
