A listener in Savannah, GA - is in a church with great preaching...but she has a check in her spirit because at the end of the service, the pastor will say something like "There are a couple of people here with back pain" or "There is a person here who is having marital problems" and then they will have a word for these individuals.

Allena, Acton, MA - My name is Allena and I’m 16 years old from Acton, Massachusetts. My family and I were reading “The MacArthur Daily Bible” and we read a verse from Luke 13:32. In that verse Jesus refers to Herod as a “fox” but although MacArthur explains that referring to people as a fox is usually in the sense that people are crafty and worthless. But, in this sense isn’t Herod a leader and shouldn’t Jesus be respecting him as one, like we are told to in the Bible.
