Tuesday April 21 2026 - Scanner News - Panhandle Scanner News

It's time for Scanner News and I'm your host Brian Hale. Brought to you by R&C Welding in Garing, Nebraska. Now in their fourth year of sponsorship. With a lack of bad news over scanner traffic in the last 24 hours, we're happy to bring you some good news. This is a positive message from Sandhills Center for Hope. Make today a good day and never forget how far you've come, everything you've gotten through, all the times you have been pushed on even when you felt you couldn't. All the mornings you got out of bed no matter how hard it was, all the times you wanted to give up but you got through another day, never forget how much strength you have developed along the way. Don't forget about the fire danger warning again today. Conditions are ripe for wildfires with a red flag warning in effect for the panhandle, relative humidity values of 10-30% and southerly wind gusts of 15-25 mph. Use caution with fire at all times. This week the Nebraska Department of Transportation and agencies across the country are celebrating National Work Zone Awareness Week, highlighting the importance of safe driving near work zones. Remember to slow down, pay attention and keep the phone down so everyone can make it home safe. Last week we celebrated the importance of our 911 dispatchers and this week it's our construction zone workers. Torrington Wyoming experienced a power outage this morning as of 5:55 am the power has been restored to areas north of the river according to the Torrington Police Department and the city there and that it is due to an issue with the power supplier WAPA and is affecting the city of Torrington and surrounding areas. Follow our news page at Panhandle Scanner or our Facebook page by the same name for updates on that power outage in Torrington. That's going to do it for today's scanner news. Thanks again for listening and may God bless. I'm Brian Hale.

Discipleship - The Infant Stage (Cultural Christian) - Elevate Your Day with Andi and Brian Hale

Over the next several days we will look at four stages of discipleship. Pay close attention to your own life and ask the Holy Spirit to show you where you are in your walk with Jesus so you can take your next steps and grow as a disciple. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. – Hebrews 5:13 The first stage for a new believer is the salvation stage. Salvation is amazing! If you have given your life to Christ, you are a new person! You have been born again! The Bible often compares this stage to that of an infant. I call it the infant stage. You’ve seen a newborn—they’re helpless! Babies rely on the food, comfort, and care of their guardian. They don’t know how to cope with life, so they cry and stretch out their arms to be held. They don’t understand why things happen; all they think about is how they feel—me, me, me. And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ. I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able, for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men? – 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 Newborn believers live by their five senses and not by faith. Their spirit has been born again, but their mind has not been renewed by the Word of God. That is why it’s so important for a new believer to begin to feed on the milk of the Word of God. 1 Peter 2:2-3 says Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation—if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. Every Christian needs the milk of the word of God. But we don’t want to get stuck on milk and stay in the infant stage of Christianity. The milk of the Word of God will shine a light on some big areas of your life that need to be changed (language, relationships, bad habits, music and movie choices). Romans 12:2 reminds us to keep growing, And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. Some of you are stuck in this infant stage. The Word of God is pointing out areas in your life where you need to change, but you continue to live like the world. You haven’t let your inner heart transformation be reflected in your lifestyle choices. Your life looks just like the world. Maybe your next step is cutting off bad influences and getting in a godly community of friends. Maybe it’s changing your language. Maybe it’s to stop looking at pornography, or getting drunk with your friends, or having sex with your boyfriend or girlfriend. Today, take your next spiritual step by reflecting on today’s verses and asking God to help you see areas of your life that need to be surrendered. It’s time to move to the next stage in your relationship with God!
