Pastors’ Round Table

Every Thursday from 9 a.m. – 10 a.m. On Newsradio 1310 KLIX I am pleased for the opportunity to be on-air with pastors Bear Morton of Magic Valley Bible Curch and Christopher Folkerts of New Covenant United Reformed Church. The host of Magic Valley this Morning, Bill Colley, is gracious, a great American, fair, and a skilled conversationalist.

Join us on Thursday as we give Biblical consideration to real issues.

This week we will think out loud on issues private universities are facing and will continue to face in light of the collapsing morality of the culture and what this means for Christians as the growing secular influence attempts to squeeze the Bible believing Christian into its mould.

For the Glory of God

Last night, August 1, 2019, nearly 400 people gathered at Eastside Baptist Church and approx. 100 viewed on live streaming to learn about what can be done in the state of Idaho to promote the life of every person, regardless of age and location, in the state.

The agenda began at 7p.m. and was scheduled to last just under 2 hours finished after 9 p.m.

Total of six speakers. Overflow seating, overflow parking, overflowing volume when the gathered people sang, and overflowing instruction and direction on what to do now.

Here is the entire speaking program.

Idaho Abortion Human Rights Act Meeting

Today, there is no way to claim simple ignorance on what’s going on when a baby is aborted from the womb. Anyone wanting to claim it is humane or kind to remove the living human from the womb before natural birth has deliberately chosen to ignore truth and has a seared conscience.

“You shall not murder.” God


(Exodus 20:13)

On behalf of all unborn who enter the city of Twin Falls and all children in the womb across the state of Idaho, on behalf of the silent child in great need today, on behalf of the child who has no way to flee his enemy, I am pleased to invite you to attend a special meeting on August 1, 2019. Join me as we prepare for the duty to interpose on behalf of our fellow Triune-God image bearing neighbors.

My friends Bear Morton, pastor at Magic Valley Bible Church, and Christopher Folkerts, pastor at New Covenant United Reformed Church and I have the privilege to host an hour long radio program on Thursdays at 9 a.m. (mountain time). Pastors Round Table is hosted by our friend Bill Colley at Newsradio 1310 KLIX.

On August 1st, we will host a region wide gathering to educate, collaborate, and most importantly pray about moving forward to address abolishing abortion in Idaho. This will not be easy or make anyone popular.

Attend this meeting on August 1, at Eastside Baptist Church (204 Eastland Drive North) in Twin Falls. Not only will we discuss the proposed Idaho Abortion Human Rights Act legislation and meet the sponsors, Representative Heather Scott(District 1) and Representative John Green (District 2) along with Scott Herndon, we will also open our Bibles and hear what God would have us do in our day.

Come at 6 p.m. to meet the legislators and the Pastors Round Table team. The main event will begin at 7 p.m. Seating is limited, but we will do all we can to accommodate the seating needs of all who attempt to come. Parking will be limited so you may want to plan ahead and car pool from the Kmart parking lot with friends or park at Web Nursery.

For the glory of God, come and prepare to mobilize for the day.

Pastors Round Table

Every Thursday on Newsradio 1310 KLIX I have this pleasure to see my friend Bill Colley (out of picture below to the left). Bill is the local talk radio host on Magic Valley This Morning. The show runs Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. – 10 a.m. rain or shine.

I first met Bill at the local Home and Garden show at CSI several years ago and have enjoyed being on his program from time to time. Nearly one year ago, Bill stopped by my office to talk about the possibility of doing a weekly hour long segment he calls Pastors Round Table.

I’ve had several other pastors in the area join us and fill in when one of us are gone. The guys in the photo are the regular pastors you hear every Thursday.

Their friendship is enjoyable. I’m thankful to God for His kindness to allow friendships like this. These guys are Biblical, trustworthy, articulate, and kindhearted. They love the Lord, it’s clear their families are priorities in their lives, and they are faithful to give their churches a word from God.

You should put this program on your calendar for every Thursday from 9-10 a.m. You can listen in on a radio at 1310 AM or audio stream online at Newsradio 1310 KLIX. Bill is on every weekday from 6-10 a.m. and writes news at Newsradio 1310 KLIX website.

Encourage the Exhausted

Today, I want to call my readers to action again.

If you’ve been reading here at all over the past month you know that I have put much attention to the Idaho Abortion Human Rights Act. I will continue to do so and even will in this post.

Today, however, I want to invite you to join me in sending a very short, I mean very short, email to John Green and Heather Scott. Like all of the legislators, they have been working hard. These two, while doing all their duties on every bill that comes before them have also been at war for the unborn like few are willing to do.

Earlier this week I traveled to Boise with Christopher Folkerts, Mickie Kelly, Billy Galloska, and Silas Thompson to visit with Rep. Harris, the chairman of the State Affairs Committee. This meeting was to assure him that pastors from across the state of Idaho are in favor of the Idaho Abortion Human Rights Act. Our meeting did not produce a favorable printing of the bill to the full committee. Hope must not be fixed on the fear of men. It is never lost on the fear of God.

But by the grace of God, we were able to meet Rep. Green and Rep. Scott for the first time. We were able to pray for them and encourage them that the church is ready and mobilized for ongoing action.

“Encourage the exhausted, and strengthen the feeble.”

Isaiah 35:3)

Would you please write Rep. Green and Rep. Scott a very short email? (Do not expect a reply. It will be nearly impossible for them to reply to you.)

Representative John Green: jgreen@house.idaho.gov
Representative Heather Scott: hscott@house.idaho.gov

example of what I wrote them.

Representative Green,

It was my pleasure in Christ to pray for you today. Don’t quit the good fight for the glory of God.

Representative Scott,

It was my pleasure in Christ to pray for you today. Don’t quit the good fight for the glory of God.

In Wrath Remember Mercy

This past week on the weekly Pastors Round Table, with Bear Morton, Christopher Folkers, and Keith Thompson (no relationship) we had the opportunity to speak about the Pastors of Idaho Mercy Statement.

Listen here to the conversation, pray for our state legislators, pass this on to a pastor you know, encourage them to sign this statement.

Thank you to Bill Colley and news radio 1310 KLIX. Bill hosts this weekly one hour segment during his Magic Valley This Morning program from 6 a.m. – 10 a.m. Monday through Friday. Pastors Round Table is every Thursday from 9 a.m. – 10 a.m.

Pastors of Idaho Mercy Statement

Along with my friends Bear Morton and Christopher Folkerts, we have just finished the “Pastors of Idaho Mercy Statement”, a favorable statement in response to the introduction of the Idaho Abortion Human Rights Act of 2019 by Rep. Heather Scott and Rep. John Green.

Here is the link to the full statement. Pastors of Idaho Mercy Statement

If you are willing to help, would you please pray with us that we can communicate this statement to every evangelical, biblically ordered pastor within the state of Idaho would at least hear of this statement and then, when lead by the spirit of God, be willing to sign the statement.

Pray specifically for Rep. Heather Scott and Rep. John Green. The two state representatives have been under great opposition already by fellow lawmakers. Pray that God will strengthen them for this day.

The movement of bills can sometimes move very fast, sometimes with only a day notice of when the bill is ready for public hearing. It is paramount that we act now to communicate to the State of Idaho lawmakers that we, the people, want a hearing on this law.

More ways you can help:

  • Email this link to every pastor you know and ask him to consider signing it.
  • Share this link to all of your social media pages to help spread the word.
  • Listen to our live discussion with Bill Colley on Magic Valley This Morning on KLIX Newsradio 1310 on Thursday morning, February 7, 2019 at 9:00 a.m.
  • Pray for the mercy of God to fall upon the state of Idaho.

Pastors Round Table

Every Thursday from 9:00 a.m – 10:00 a.m (mountain time) the local talk show, Magic Valley This Morning with Bill Colley, hosts an hour long segment called Pastors Round Table. During this hour listeners are encouraged to call in and engage with the pastors. Callers sometimes agree, sometimes disagree, other times they pose questions on the going subject of the day.

I’m thankful to God for the unique opportunity to think publicly with some local pastors on current issues from a biblically theological vantage point. My long time friend, “Bear” Morton, the pastor at Magic Valley Bible Church is usually with me and my new friend, Christopher Folkerts, the pastor at the New Covenant United Reformed Church along with a few other pastors from time to time (John Martinez, John Downs, Mickie Kelly) are articulate, careful, and Biblical thinkers.

There are a few ways you can listen in.

  • Listen on a radio. Tune your AM radio to 1310. KLIX is a local talk show station.
