Around here, it’s Christmastime. The most generous time of the year. Or so it would seem. Americans, on average, will spend over 750 dollars this Christmas on gifts. So much time and energy exerted for this one moment. We hope it’s all worth it in the end. But what happens when the shine wears off of those new toys, gadgets and whatchamacallits? Something needs to replace it.
What if you already had every gift you needed in life? Tonight’s show is all about the ways that God has given us gifts that won’t lose their shine. Let’s discover them together. Jeff, DW, Jason & Mike sit down for a lively conversation. Share about your favorite gift ever on the Tweetback!
Let’s choose not to settle for mediocrity. You and I were made with purpose. The gifts you have are evidence of this! Are we settling for mediocre? Share on the Tweetback!

Thank you so much for being part of this journey with Dave and me! We’ve had some fun with this Thanksliving series and hope that you have been thinking about what it would take for you to live thankfully every day.
Joining Jeff & DW on the show is Jason, Terra Kay, and Mike Ott. Tell us what the best part of Thanksgiving was for you on the Tweetback! This week on HopeNet Radio, we’re discussing the effects of thanksliving – kindness through acts of service. We believe that living thankfully results in acting thankful toward others. It seems like every other day, I see things like the Pay It Forward movement trending on Facebook or Twitter. (There’s even a Pay It Forward Day!)
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours this week! Thanksgiving time is not always filled with thanks-giving. In fact, 90% of people are only thankful when it’s over. Ok, well that stat might be made up. Regardless, the last thing we want for you is for you to miss out on the joy of Thanksgiving because you just don’t feel like being thankful.
This week’s conversation addresses the struggle to be thankful emotionally. Let’s face it, we don’t always feel thankful. Why is that? Listen to the show this week and decide for yourself to never not be thankful. Joining Jeff & DW on the show is Jason, Terra Kay, and Mike Ott. Leave your thoughts with us on the Tweetback!
A 2012 study found that sexting has become a mainstream practice among some youths. The survey of nearly 1,000 public high school students of diverse backgrounds in Texas found that 28 percent acknowledged sending a naked picture of themselves through text or email, and 31 percent asked someone for a “sext.”
Adolescents who engaged in sexting behaviors, the researchers noted, were more likely to have begun dating and to have had sex than those who did not sext. For girls, sexting was also associated with risky sexual behaviors.
