First Responders in Knox County had a chance to test their training and practice their skills on Saturday, 9/29. The Knox County Emergency Management Agency hosted their annual disaster exercise with a hazardous materials emergency.
Marcy Rinehart of The Morning Thing talked with Mark Maxwell, the Director of the Knox County Emergency Management Agency. He talked about the goal behind the annual LEPC exercise. Click HERE to hear their conversation.
The exercise scenario involved a box truck making a delivery to Kokosing Construction in Fredericktown. The truck contained improperly secured barrels of a hazardous material. While en-route, one of the barrels fell over and released product. The driver, his co-worker and several Kokosing employees were treated within protocol of a hazmat situation as part of the exercise.
16 organizations participated in the LEPC exercise. The Knox County Emergency Operations Center was also activated and evaluated.

Today, The Morning Thing talked about respect – this time focusing on husbands earning respect from their wives.
1 Corinthians 13 gives us the perfect example of love and respect for any relationship.
(New International Version) 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhoodbehind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
We shared an article from www.allprodad.com – 7 Ways husbands can earn respect from their wifes.
Click HERE to read the FULL ARTICLE.
1. Treat her with respect.
2. Never demand respect.
3. Be a servant-leader in your home.
4. Consistently put other people first, including her.
5. Always follow through on your promises.
6. Volunteer in the community.
7. Carry your weight around the house.
When men demonstrate humility, grace, and mercy at home, the strength of character that defines them as servant-leaders commands the kind of respect that is rooted in love and appreciation.
We also shared thoughts on respect from Kevin A. Thompson, lead pastor at Community Bible Church in western Arkansas. Every year he meets with nearly one hundred couples with a range of needs, from premarital counseling to navigating the most serious betrayals. Kevin is a marriage and parenting conference speaker. He is married to Jenny and they have two children.
Kevin’s blog “Five ways a husband respects his wife” has some powerful thoughts.

Women need respect just as much as men. Respect is an aspect of love within the context of marriage. (See: Respect–A Necessary Ingredient for Marriage)
The need for a husband to respect his wife is just as important as a wife respecting her husband.
Five ways a husband respects his wife:
1. He seeks to fully know her and to woo her heart.
2. He is a true partner to her in raising children, making a home, and fulfilling her dreams.
3. He speaks to her and about her with respect.
4. He is influenced by her opinions and beliefs.
5. He nourishes a healthy emotional relationship with her.
Respect is a vital part of any relationship. It is a necessary aspect of a healthy marriage. Where respect is present, problems are negotiable, communication is helpful, and compassion is abounding. Where respect is absent, everything is toxic.
Husbands, love your wives by developing a deep respect for them.
