Most of the time the Best Teachers never stop learning. Today’s J103 FB Devo from Bob Goff’s Catching Whimsy shares……stop hunting for a perfect mentor—find a friend who nudges you forward, makes you stretch, and helps you see a little farther than yesterday. -Ted ✨📖💡🙌💛

Making our weaknesses public is usually not our favorite thing to do.
Devo: Today’s J103 AM Devo from Bob Goff’s devotional Catching Whimsy shares that our vulnerabilities are many times more authentic than our self-thought strengths and achievements, and challenges us to try leading with our weaknesses today in our conversations. -Ted

If you haven’t checked your Inbox from God lately—it may be full! Today’s J103 AM Devo from Bob Goff’s devotional Catching Whimsy shares how Bob encourages us to grab a piece of paper or a card and a pen and write someone an “old school” letter of encouragement—and he even agreed to pay the postage if you can’t afford a stamp.

"O come, O come, Immanuel,
and ransom captive Israel
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the Son of God appear.

Every Christmas, I hear the hymn, 'O Come, O Come, Immanuel.' I’ll be honest: I didn’t always like it. No matter how many versions I heard, I just couldn’t connect with it. That changed one day when I found myself singing the refrain: 'Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to thee, O Israel'..."

I hope you have that one person in your life that whenever you leave a conversation with them, you feel blessed.

Today’s J103 AM Devo from Bob Goff’s devotional “Catching Whimsy” shares… Bob encourages us to pay real close attention for one day to everything that comes out of our mouths—were they words of encouragement or negativity? -Ted

🎄 Halfway Through December… Are You Missing It?

We’re officially halfway through December! Between the shopping, the parties, the traffic, and the to-do lists… it’s easy to miss the real reason for the season.

Take a minute today to pause. Listen to the music, notice the lights, and remember why we celebrate: God’s love made known to us through Jesus. Don’t let the hustle steal the heart of Christmas.

What’s one thing you’ll do this week to savor the season? 🎁 -Ted

As a child, anticipating Christmas is one of the most exciting times of the year (it still is for me and most adults if we’re honest). That kind of childlike expectation is a pretty great picture of what our faith can look like.

Today’s J103 AM Devo from Bob Goff’s devotional “Catching Whimsy” shares… we can know what we are hoping for and have confidence in what we haven’t seen yet, knowing that God is crazy about us! -Ted

🎄 Christmas at the Courthouse! 🎶

I had the absolute joy of emceeing one of this month’s Hamilton County Christmas at the Courthouse presentations! A few other J103 team members and I have loved being part of these lunch-time events, where school and community groups perform Christmas songs for the public and courthouse employees.

Today, I get to emcee the last one of the season, featuring some very talented students and the Scenic City Friends — a special group of adults with special needs who bless my heart every year. ❤️

It’s one of those events that reminds you why the holidays are so magical — community, joy, and a little music to lift your spirit.

Have you been to a local Christmas event this year that filled your heart? Share your favorite below! 🎁✨ -Ted

I love people who are (and I claim to be) “Low Maintenance.”
Today’s J103 AM Devo from Bob Goff’s devotional ‘Catching Whimsy’ — Bob explains that we all have needs… (Delight in them, vet them and then manage them.)

If I had to pick only one thing to represent the Christmas season, it would definitely be the lights! ✨ The twinkling blues, greens, reds, and yellows… I can never get enough of them! 🎄✨

If you had to choose just one thing to represent Christmas, what would it be?

— Brad!
