Brandon Gets Some Love & Do "Fun" & "Run" Go Together?

Every morning this week we've played Tickets & Tunes and given winners their choice of a Family 4-Pak of tickets to any one of the four November concerts in the J93.3 Fall Concert Series.  There are two shows with tobyMac and special guest Jamie Grace and two shows with Brandon Heath and special guest Brit Nicole.  Every morning through Thursday our winners chose tobyMac tickets.

I had a chance to talk with Brandon Heath yesterday, and broke this disheartening news to him.

Brandon Heath-Please Pick My Tickets by Jerry Williams

Brandon's plea must have worked.  Our Friday morning winner chose the Family 4-Pak to one of the Brandon Heath concerts!  In an effort to try and continue showing the love to Brandon, we're extending our "Your Choice" Tickets & Tunes through all of next week!  If you follow us on Twitter you always receive a "heads up" Tweet a few minutes before the contest begins.  You can sign up to follow us on Twitter by clicking the "Twitter" button to the right.

Jamie Grace will be at The Rock Ranch tomorrow & with tobyMac in November


We also had a chance to chat with Jamie Grace.  Jamie is performing tomorrow (Saturday 10/22) at The Rock Ranch.  Here's part of that conversation.

tobyMac will do two acoustic "Story Tellers" shows in November

Fun & Run--two words that shouldn't go together
I'm not much of a runner.  Though I will admit that I'm more of one now than I was a couple of years ago (but that's a story for another blog).  So the idea of "Fun Run" is still a little hard for me to reconcile.  But that's what's happening tomorrow with the Fox Fever Run.  It's a benefit for World Missions with a 1 mile, 5k and 10K races.  Doug Lawrence, one of the organizers, was on the Morning Show today.  He brought his family (with the exception of 14-month old Andrew) with him, and yes, they are all runners, even 5-year old Lane.

The Lawrence family, runners all.  Doug, Alexis, Caleb, Lane and Angela
This Week's Scripture References
We begin every day on the Morning Show with prayer time and a short scripture reading.  Here are the verses we used this week:
  • Romans 8:15 - 17
  • I Corinthians 7:29 - 31
  • Philippians 4:4 - 7
  • Colossians 2:6 - 10
  • I Thessalonians 5:12 - 22
Friday Flashback Video
The song "Jesus Is Just Alright" was written by Arthur Reid Reynolds and was included on his group's, The Art Reynolds Singers, 1966 album "Tellin' It Like It Is".  It's been recorded by dozens of acts since then.  I first became aware of the song when the Doobie Brothers released it as a single in 1972.  Twenty years later, 1992, dc Talk recorded it on their "Free At Last" project.  They also did a video, which is this week's flashback.
