April 28, 2017 Dear Station Manager, This May, Walk in the Word is going back to their roots as they bring back their classic theme song, written and recorded by David Crowder. The catchy tune is back by popular demand and seamlessly encompasses the message and tone behind James MacDonald s teaching. The classic Walk in the Word music bed will make a comeback on the broadcast starting May 1. Last week, our very own Roger Kemp flew to Chicago to record with James MacDonald and Wayne Shepherd. It s always fun getting the Walk in the Word team together in the studio and catching up. One thing that James was especially excited to share with the group was the upcoming release of his new book; The Word of God Is the Will of God. We ll have more details in the coming months, but in the meantime, the book is available for preorder here: https://store.jamesmacdonald.com/p-3360-the-willof-god-is-the-word-of-god.aspx On the broadcast in throughout May, James challenges those listening to consider the way our thinking drives our actions. This hallmark series, Think Differently, is a prime example of what Walk in the Word is all about seeing lives changed and made new through God s Word. Pastor James encourages listeners to take captive every thought if we want true growth to take place in our lives. According to James, Everything changes when you start thinking differently. Renew your mind in God s Word. Keep hoping, and be sensitive to God s promptings to change. Brighter days are ahead as you think differently. We are truly grateful for your partnership and pray that you and your listeners will be blessed by this month s teaching. Thank you for all that you do to support Walk in the Word!
