In “Hold On For a Blessing” S5 / E52 of I Took a Right Turn: We open up with our usual comments on the weather in the Promised Land and how the changing seasons are a miracle to behold and sometimes a challenge to be dealt with. Our musical portion of the podcast begins with My Life is in You which tells us how to make it through anything, by knowing God is always there for us. Next a song that we learned many years ago along the old sawdust trail of tent revivals, God is God. Then comes a song that speaks about how our life in Christ should feel, I’m On My Way to Heaven. Finally, we share another of our homegrown songs, one that is almost an anthem for us, a bold expression of who we are in Christ: I Am.
Looking into God’s Holy Word we turn for a change to the Old Testament, we explore Genesis 32:24-29 at a portion of God’s Word where we learn about holding on until we receive our blessing.
After this, we move on to our newest segment of the Podcast, “A Miracle Moment.” In the segment this week, we share a miracle that shows how God can keep us safe in some very trying situations.
We want to invite everyone to send us your miracle stories. Everyone who does will receive one of Robert’s books. We’re very excited about this new segment because we feel God has guided us into this expansion of the Podcast Ministry.

Then Robert reads another poem from his second book of poetry, Floating Through Time, “Our Number One Priority.” Each episode this season includes a poem from this book.

We also invite everyone to visit our online art store, The Pair a Docs Shop where we offer our original paintings, prints and merchandise.

We should cease our endless projects and programs, cease striving to build something in this world, and acknowledge that God is God and that is enough.

If we really believe that God is God and that He’s in control, why should we worry?

When we worry it’s because we’ve lost sight of who God is and are instead focused on who we are.

Who Goes to Heaven? April 15, 2026

When our conscious
tells us we’ve
done something wrong,
that unsettling feeling
that we should go back
and make it right,
that’s the Holy Spirit
convicting us.
Don’t delay!
Heed the call,
turn around,
and we’ll
find God right there,
Waiting.
It isn’t perfect people,
who go to heaven,
it’s forgiven people.

In “I Know Where I Want to Go” S5 E51 of I Took a Right Turn: We open up speaking about health issues and our experience with the American medical systems sharing about how we learn through trials and that’s how we grow and mature. Our musical portion of the podcast begins with When the Rollis Called Up Yonder which is an old song and a constant hope here. Next a song that tells the truth and nothing but the truth, Jesus Got Aholda My Heart. Then another old song that speaks of what is a good thing to remember about how God works in our life, Gone at Last. Finally, we share one of our newer homegrown songs: Be Ready.
Looking into God’s holy Word, we explore at John 14:1-4 a passage that teaches us that God is waiting to welcome home.
Almost as an afterthought Rosalie chimes in with our usual comments on the weather in the Promised Land.
