(ESV)\n\n        Some of the most joyful times in our lives come after an\n   agonizing wait.  As we wait, we work to be ready for the day the\n   goal is accomplished.  Because the waiting is hard, we may want\n   to give up, to simply stop pursuing the goal.  We pray for those\n   who have grown tired of waiting for Christ.  We pray for those\n   who have been taught something other than God's Word.\n        Almighty God, You show those in error the light of Your\n        truth so that they may return to the way of\n        righteousness.  Grant faithfulness to all who are\n        admitted into the fellowship of Christ's Church that\n        they may avoid whatever is contrary to their confession\n        and follow all such things as are pleasing to You.\n\n\n        Jesus was aware of the disciples' discontent, confusion, and\n   questions.  He told them: ``When a woman is giving birth, she has\n   sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the\n   baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human\n   being has been born into the world.''\n\n        The struggle, the pain, the perils are real, but so are the\n   joys.  We may suffer persecution, ridicule, or be denied\n   friendships because of our faith in Christ Jesus.  Yet, we have\n   the promise of eternal life because our sins are forgiven for His\n   sake.\n\n        May our Lord keep us faithful through the problems of this\n   life until we come to the eternal joys of heaven.  Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April 30, 2026 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4772","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4772","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4772"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4772\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4773,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4772\/revisions\/4773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4772"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4772"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4772"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
