March 26, 2018 Dear Station Manager:

From politics to personal relationships, it seems like people are more divided than ever before. Even in the church!

This April on Discover the Word, Mart DeHaan, Bill Crowder, Elisa Morgan and special guest, Daniel Ryan Day, embark upon a two-week study in the book of Romans called “Can’t We All Just Get Along?”

As listeners join the team in the 4th chair around the table, they’ll learn that division—even in the church—is nothing new. The apostle Paul urged early Christians to strive for unity in all things.

The bottom-line solution Paul offered to the Romans still applies

to us today. There is power in the unified body of Christ Jesus!

Encourage your listeners to step into their role as mighty peacemakers by engaging with the Discover the Word team in this conversation.

Our Daily Bread Ministries has designed high-quality graphics you can use to promote the upcoming April series on your website and social media platforms.

It’s a privilege to play a role in what God is up to… and to do so with you! With one

heart and mouth may we bring glory to our Heavenly Father in the work He’s given us.

Happy Easter,

Your Media Services Team

APRIL 2018 PROGRAMMING

In Christ Airing April 2 – 13, 2018

Mart DeHaan and Bill Crowder kick off the month of April by welcoming seminary professor Dr. Con Campbell to the table. Together, they’ll be studying Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus to discover how an identity In Christ changed everything for these early church believers. Listeners will learn what this can mean for their life, too!

Why Can’t We All Just Get Along? Airing April 16 – 27, 2018

From politics to personal relationships, it seems like people are more divided than ever before. Even in the church! But during this two-week study in the book of Romans, the Discover the Word team learns that division is nothing new . . . and the bottom-line solution offered by the apostle Paul to the Romans still applies to us today. Tell your listeners to join the conversation on Discover the Word!

Jesus Invitations Airing April 30 – May 5, 2018 One of the realities in life is being invited to important events like weddings, graduations, and other celebrations. But, how we respond to those invitations is often driven by who is doing the inviting. In the gospels, we find several times when Jesus looks at someone and says, “Come…” In this series of discussions, we will see what He was inviting them to and what it could mean for us as well.
