Today, The Morning Thing shared information about 6 sixty second health tests that you can do at home. Click HERE to find out how to take the tests. An important note – a positive result is just an indicator of a symptom and doesn’t necessarily mean you are sick. Please seek a doctor’s advice on your medical condition.
We also shared information about a January cleanse. There are several food groups that you should cut out this month to get you started on a healthier path for 2016. Click HERE for more information.
With WinterJam making its first stop in Ohio tomorrow, we decided that for the Fave 5 we would share our favorite songs from the WinterJam artists. Talk about challenging… Seriously, picking only one song from ForKing&Country and Matthew West? Next to impossible. But we did it and you can check out the videos for all of these songs.
1. For King and Country, “Fix My Eyes.”
2. Matthew West, “Grace Wins.”
Crowder, “I Am.”
Sidewalk Prophets, “Prodigal.”
Lauren Daigle, “How Can it Be.”
There were so many songs for all of the artists, that we recommend checking out all of their YouTube channels to hear more. And enjoy WinterJam 2016!

Today is January 6th, the official date of the Christian Holiday of Epiphany. Compared to its older brother Christmas though, Epiphany tends to get overlooked. It’s an important day though. It wraps up the Christmas season, welcomes in the Carnival season (that sounds fun, right?), and it commemorates to very important points in Jesus’ life: The visit of the Wise Men and His Baptism.
As we shared on the show today, while Christmas and Easter represent the two major events of Christ’s life that have an impact on us as Christians it is still important that we don’t forget the ones in between His Birth and Death. That’s why we encourage you to check out the information here that we talked about this morning to learn all about Epiphany. And maybe you and I could even read the stories of the Magi’s visit and Jesus’ Baptism to remind us of their importance and see what God would share with us through those portions of the Bible.
And since it is Epiphany that means it is time to talk about a subject that is approached with mixed feelings…. Taking down the Christmas decorations.
Maybe you just breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed, “Finally!” with a single tear of joy running down your face. Or maybe they were tears of sorrow accompanied by a cry of “No! Do we have to?” Whichever camp you are in, it’s a discussion worth having. Contrary to what my girlfriend would wish to believe, you can’t have the Christmas tree and lights up year round. So we have a couple of guides for you. One based on superstition, one based on religious observance, and one based on organization.
Whichever decoration camp you are in we hope that you had a fantastic Christmas and that as the year you are ushering in by taking down those decorations will be a great one! Happy New Year!
2016 is here! For some, this is an exciting time with expectations for new adventures and experiences. For others, the new year brings along challenges and uncertainty.

Joel Smallbone, one of the brothers who founded the band, gave us an inside look at the band’s approach to designing and planning their shows. Plus, Joel tells us why he is willing to risk his life at each performance by climbing ladders and jumping off the highest piece of equipment. For King and Country is also making a movie and Joel tells us all about it!
