Well done brother - this is how we made a huge change happen in Vietnam ... and it's because you and friends of CMN generously gave financially and prayed strongly to make a strategic CMN broadcast into Vietnam. Watching and listening to that broadcast was a young man just out of prison. This is an actual photo of him watching with two friends just 48 months ago. I'll call him Nam. Nam heard a word that changed his life. How to be a Godly man. How to be a Maximized man. Revelation that he had never heard before. It radically...

I was standing on the 30-yard line in the Rose Bowl stadium. It was the January 1980 Super Bowl between the Rams and the Steelers. I was producing television coverage of the game. The Los Angeles Rams were not supposed to be in this position. One of the few 9-7 teams to ever play in a Super Bowl. In the playoffs, they had a stunning last-minute touchdown to beat Roger Staubach and the Cowboys in his last game. They won the Conference Championship 9-0 over Tampa Bay.

Sitting on a hillside, the shimmering waters of the Sea of Galilee glinting through the afternoon haze, Jesus taught his disciples.

The teacher said, "You'll probably be a mess just like your brothers were." Gene's face flushed with embarrassment. A few years earlier, he had been molested by his grandfather. His dad was no longer around, and then the teacher put the final negative word on him. For years, Gene dealt with negative self-image and all that comes with it as a fatherless boy. He gained...

Every day, we're hit with the equivalent of 174 newspapers worth of information. That's 29 trillion pieces of data vying for our attention. It's enough to make anyone’s head spin. But here's the thing - your ability to focus in this chaos isn't just about productivity. It's about your identity, your purpose, your legacy. So, how do we cut through the noise? Focus is the discipline of extracting yourself from the unnecessary. And brother, our most potent tool for this extraction? Prayer. Think about Jesus for a moment. God Incarnate, yet constantly bombarded with demands: ‘HEAL ME.’ ‘COME THIS WAY.’...
