NEW IN JUNE:

Marriage Today

3:30PM EST Weekdays

Jimmy & Karen Evans

“There is a fierce battle being fought for marriage in America right now, but we can win it,” says Jimmy Evans. “At MarriageToday, we want to raise the standard. We want to give people help and hope to succeed in marriage…and you can succeed. You just need the right information.”

Since founding MarriageToday in 1994, Jimmy and Karen Evans have encouraged and coached countless couples in building rewarding marriages and healthy homes. With more than 50% of unions in America ending in divorce, the Evans are committed to sharing proven truths that can make the most troubled marriage good, and any good marriage great. They bring more than 25 years experience equipping and teaching couples to MarriageToday’s mission to restore the dream of marriage in America.

MarriageToday utilizes seminars, a monthly magazine and more than 100 marriage building resources, in pursuit of this vital mission. And leading the way in cultural impact is the ministry’s national television program, MarriageToday with Jimmy & Karen, which broadcasts to more than 80 million households in North America and more than 200 countries via the Internet. Whether couples are desperate to improve or save their marriages, solidify their blended families or build a more balanced, successful family, MarriageToday offers the help they need.

Jimmy and Karen know firsthand that no marriage is hopeless. The first few years of their own marriage were tumultuous and almost ended in divorce. Only by applying the principles that they now teach were they able to save their relationship. Today, after 35 years together, they understand that no matter how bleak a marriage may appear, every couple has a 100% chance of success in marriage. In fact, it can thrive!

“We’ve learned through personal experience that no matter how it may appear right now…no matter what kinds of challenges your marriage faces…no matter how high or thick the walls between you and your spouse may be…your relationship can be whole, fulfilling, exciting and strong,” Jimmy says. “And if it’s good now, it can get even better.”

Jimmy and Karen divide their time between Amarillo, Texas, where Jimmy serves as Head Elder of Trinity Fellowship, and Dallas, the location of MarriageToday’s headquarters. He and Karen have two grown children and three grandchildren.

THE ROC-Richmond Outreach Center-Sundays 7:00 PM ET

The ROC (Richmond Outreach Center) is a non-denominational, independent church with the primary purpose of winning souls to Jesus Christ through over 170 ministries. Our mission is Changing Lives and Making Life-Changers. We have a heart to change our city, win the lost at any cost, and reach the next generation!  We use every available resource to provide basic needs to people in our community. Pastor Geronimo Aguilar and his wife, Samantha, were involved in inner-city ministry since they were just teenagers.  Together, with a team once known as In 4 Life, they went everywhere and back—from public schools to jails—using their talents and testimonies to relate to kids and adults alike. Although Richmond was home to many great churches, he knew there was more to be done than having a church service on Sunday and the occasional weeknight Bible study to make a difference.  Once he and his family were settled in Virginia, he was faced with the reality that he had more than his share of work cut out for him and only through God could it be accomplished.  He knew with all of the poverty, gangs, drugs, and crime in our city, there needed to be a place of encouragement and hope, a safe haven, a hand up—for anyone and everyone who needed it. On April 7, 2001, The ROC was established as a place where local churches, civic groups, and individuals could come together to serve the inner city and urban poor.  Today, The ROC serves over 10,000 people each week through its over 170 ministries, all dedicated to serving the community.  In 2011, Outreach Magazine named The ROC the fastest-growing church in America.

“Randall Terry: Voice of Resistance” will return

“Randall Terry: The Voice of Resistance”-is being suspended until such time as his Presidential campaign concludes. While the FCC ruled prior to the Super Bowl, that his candidacy in the Democratic primaries was not legit, his winning a substantial number of counties in the Oklahoma primary against the President and other candidates, has given him the momentum to continue to the National Convention. The more legit his campaign is seen, the more risk it places us and all our affiliates to provide equal time to other candidates. So, as Fox News did with Governor Mike Huckabee, Randall has agreed to suspend his program until his candidacy is over. We will fill the void for now with additional airings of William Federer’s “Faith in History” at 7:30PM and American Heritage Series/Restoring America Series at 8:00PM ET.
