A novena is a set of prayers that typically span nine days (the Latin root of the word novena means nine) and are often focused on obtaining help for a particular intention. Do you have one that’s your “go-to” novena when you need special help from God, from Jesus, from Our Blessed Mother? Let Jerry and Debbie – and the world – know about it on Tuesday’s show, Noon and Midnight ET!

We just celebrated the Feast of Christ the King this past Sunday.  Making Christ the King of our life can be challenging at times due to our human nature.  Today, we will discuss on Take 2 with Jerry and Debbie just how we can make Christ our King totally and completely.  Share your “take” with us, we need you to have the conversation.  1-800-585-9396 is the number to call, while on hold, you can listen to the show, so you won’t miss a thing.  See you soon!

Join us today on Take 2 with Jerry and Debbie as we discuss how these big campaigns have made their way into Professional Sports, Department Stores and Schools.  The question we ask is: are they really fighting breast cancer or by their practices actually helping to cause cancer?  Interesting link we may all not be aware of…To assist us today with this fascinating discovery will be our guest, Dr. Joel Brind.  He is a professor of human biology and endocrinology at Baruch College, City University of New York since 1986, a research biochemist since 1981, and CEO of Natural Food Science founded in 2010.  Dr. Brind is a leading advocate of the abortion-breast cancer hypothesis, which states that abortion increases the risk of breast cancer.

On Thursday, Jerry and Debbie will field your takes on what your experience is or was with raising someone else’s child. It could be that you adopted, you took in foster children, you chose to raise a grandchild due to various circumstances, or any one of many possible scenarios. This will be a very illuminating show, so don’t miss it – Noon and Midnight ET!

When life’s inconveniences come your way, even ones that are more than a “little” inconvenient, are you able to see the bright side? In other words, things could always be worse. Say you have a fender bender. You immediately get worked up about who’s fault it was, over your insurance rates going up, what your spouse is going to think, etc. But, wait. No one was hurt, thank God! And, after all, you do have insurance if it’s your fault. And there are shops that can fix your car. This is not to make light of things like auto accidents. Some are very serious. But that’s just an example of how in our minds we can go right to the “glass half empty” reasoning, when, in the end, we might want to try to see things from a “glass half full” perspective. That’s our topic on Wednesday. Call with your takes for Jerry and Debbie and the world!

Racism. Is it real, or do the media and some in the culture just manufacture it for the sake of perpetuating tensions?  Is this still just a black and white issue? With the recent attacks in Paris do you look twice when seeing someone who is of Middle Eastern descent? What should we do when we feel this way to our fellow man?

On today’s show Catholic Evangelist Richard Lane is guest and talks about race and racism.

Because of the recent attacks in Paris Take 2 With Jerry and Debbie will be doing a special show on Monday. We pray for the victims of the terror attacks in Paris. But how do we wrap our minds around such senseless hatred and violence? Most important, how do we talk to our youth about what happened in France?  What should our reaction be when we hear of this kind of violence.  Please join Take 2 With Jerry and Debbie today at 12pm ET.

Paris terror attack: Remembering the victims

On Monday, Jerry and Debbie will welcome your takes on how you have come to discover God more profoundly through religious art, the beauty of nature, beautiful music, etc. Remember, as a peer-driven program, what you share on the air can make a difference in the lives of countless people. Looking forward to being back with you again on Monday!

The world tells us to look forward to Fridays…A chance for us to shelve our problems, forget about work and unwind with what we’ve been told is “happy” hour.  But, the question still remains, does “happy” hour really make us truly happy?  Let’s discuss the real “happy” hour…a Holy Hour with Jesus.  Instead of being filled with “happy” hour food and drink, how about being filled with the unconditional love HE has for us just waiting in the Blessed Sacrament!

Let’s talk about how this world created a clever marketing strategy and convinced many of us that we need “happy hour” instead of HOLY HOUR.  Amen?

Call in and share your wisdom on this topic…we want and need to hear from you!
