In “Who Needs a Doctor” S5 / E70 of I Took a Right Turn: We open up talking about the weather here in the Promised Land, we’re moving under another of this summer’s Heat Domes with extreme heat and humidity. We talk about praying for everything and allowing God to guide into a deeper relationship with Him. We ask for prayers and remind people they can send their prayer requests to us. Our musical portion of the podcast begins with an old song that has blessed generations of believers and led multitudes to Christ, Just a Little Talk With Jesus. Next a song we picked up from services at Family Worship Center, the home church of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries, Gone at Last. Then comes a song that came to us from our time at East Valley Cathedral in Arizona, Lord You Are. Finally, we share another of our homegrown songs, one that God gave us long years ago, Every Time I Turn Around.
Looking into God’s Holy Word we turn to Mark 2:13-17 where we find that it isn’t the those who think they’re spiritually healthy but those who know they need help that reach out to God. We see that our Father sent His Son to seek and save the lost.
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.

In “Beware of the Old Switcheroo” S8 / E63 of I Took a Right Turn: Once we finish our usual comments on the weather in the Promised Land then we move on to speaking about the freedom we have in the Lord and how we need to use that freedom to honor, serve, and glorify Him.

In “Judging by What We See” S5 / E65 of I Took a Right Turn: After another week under the catastrophic “HEAT DOME!!!!” we are once again experiencing normal summer weather, hot and humid. Here in the Heartland of America, we have a phenomenon called “Corn Sweat” where all the millions of acres of corn emit so much water vapor it raises the humidity level to the stratosphere. It’s all beautiful to look at and we have what we call “Corn Walls.” This is where the corn is so high that it feels like we’re driving down green canyons.
We give praise for Rosalie’s continued recovery. We also remind people they can send their prayer requests to us through our website.
The musical portion of this podcast begins with an old song that tells the Devil what we’re going to do, Listen to Me Devil. Then comes another old song that we learned from our brothers and sisters in The Church of God in Christ, Jesus I’ll Never Forget.Next, is a song that expresses the entire Gospel in just a few lines, Living He Loves Me. Finally, we share another of our homegrown songs, one that’s a rallying for all believers: Come on People.
Looking into God’s Holy Word we turn to I Timothy 5:24-25 and see that God is telling us we can’t always see what the truth is because the exterior doesn’t always show the reality of the interior.
