CURRENT PROGRAM: May 02, 2026

GUEST: PASTOR TRAVIS ALLEN

We are entering Easter Week. Or as it is sometimes called, Holy Week or Passion Week, commemorating the final week of the earthly life of Jesus Christ that culminated in His crucifixion on this coming Friday and resurrection next Sunday.

Many significant events occurred in the days leading to His crucifixion and resurrection. Jesus made what’s called “The Triumphal Entry” into Jerusalem this weekend on Sunday, also know as Palm Sunday, when he presented Himself to Israel as their promised Messiah and King, His followers waving palm branches and laying their coats on the road as Jesus rode in on the colt of a donkey.

On Monday, He came back into Jerusalem and cleansed the temple for the second time. On Tuesday and Wednesday, he taught in the temple and contended with unbelieving religious leaders of the Jews. He also instructed His own disciples about what was to come in the future.

And then on Thursday began the more familiar events with His Last Supper with His disciples, His betrayal by Judas, His arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane, and His sham trials by the Jews and the Romans, leading to His crucifixion on Friday.

Next weekend on the program, we will air a special program focusing on the person and work of Christ.

This weekend, pastor Travis Allen of Grace Church in Greeley, CO, a long-time, favorite guest, joins us to discuss the significance of the events that occurred during Passion Week leading to Christ’s death and resurrection.

PROGRAM NOTES:

TRIBUTE TO JOHN STYRBICKI

We are saddened to announce that a dear friend and brother in Christ, JOHN STYRBICKI, went to heaven last week after experiencing a sudden heart event while in Florida. John was 65 years old. He was a founding board member of The Overcomer Foundation, the non-profit that directs The Christian Worldview. He will be greatly missed in that role but even more for the support and regular encouragement he gave us.

John was a blessed man! God saved him, was sanctifying him and gave him a godly wife, Sue, who herself has volunteered with The Christian Worldview for years, two children and several grandchildren all of whom he adored.

John was faithful to his local church and used his spiritual gifts well, from discernment to service and encouragement to giving. He was a kind and godly man—I always enjoyed spending time with him and playing golf together on occasion.

We were all shocked to hear the news but we know that God wasn’t caught off guard—in fact, God ordained to bring John to his eternal home the exact day and way He did. And so while we grieve our loss and the tremendous loss to his family, we rejoice to know John is with the Christ he believed in and faithfully served.

Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die.”

Thank you for remembering John’s family in prayer and praising God for His grace in John’s life.
