Upcoming Programs

On today’s program we will celebrate Mother’s Day and take an honest, insightful look at what it’s like to be a mother in today’s modern world. Join Shawn and Jean Boonstra as they speak openly about the challenges of motherhood in a busy world. Listen as they share their personal joys and struggles as parents, and discuss issues such as time management, worry and expectation.

As we watch our kids running around the yard, we often can't believe how much energy they have. So what happens to us when we get older? Are we really supposed to wake up tired in the morning and drag ourselves from one appointment to the next? What effect does being tired all the time have on your relationship with God? Join us this week as special guest Dr. Fred Hardinge, along with Pastor Boonstra, answers this question in the first of a six-part series on health.

Did you sleep well last night? For many people, it was fitful at best. This is true for millions of us. Today on It Is Written, we will talk about a topic you might not expect to hear on a Bible show: a good night's sleep. So grab your Bible, and join us as we introduce you, again, to a very special guest who will show you how to get the rest of your life, for the rest of your life!

We all have stress in our lives; letters from the IRS; your boss telling you that you're expected to make a big presentation tomorrow that you didn't know about; a family member having surgery; your kids running wild through the house. In the past 20 years, we have all heard that stress can be a real killer. Today, special guest Dr. Fred Hardinge joins Pastor Boonstra to give you the tools you need to both understand stress and deal with it.

On this week's program, Pastor Boonstra talks about one of the touchiest subjects in North America today. He has a very special guest who knows what he's talking about when it comes to the issue of same-sex relationships and the debate that is raging over gay rights.

In the Mother's Day program, Pastor Shawn Boonstra interviewed his wife, Jean, about being a mom in today's busy world. In this show, the tables are turned as Jean interviews Shawn about his role as a father. Learn about the importance of family worship, discipline, and the most significant role a father can play.

Join Shawn Boonstra and Sebastian Tirtirau as they discuss the exciting, continuing outreach efforts in the Kalahari Desert. Hear updates on efforts such as the water systems, which were provided through the support of It Is Written viewers. You'll also hear about the team's encounter with a witch doctor and a San tribe member's battle with a leopard. This is a telecast you won't want to miss!

Imagine suddenly being ripped away from your home and transplanted to a place that contradicts everything you stand for. The unbelievably rapid pace of social change today can make people feel like they are not living in the same world they were born into. Values are being redefined. What do you do when the world around you no longer believes as you do? Tune in today as Pastor Boonstra explores an ancient story that holds the key to standing firm when everything else is shifting.
