Truly "Uplifting and Encouraging", His Radio

Over the Christmas holidays, I had to go to our local Christian radio station to record a 30 second spot advertising our church's women's bible studies. (These bible studies are awesome and start on January 16th ,by the way!!) This is the third time that I have done this, and all three times the kids have gone along. All three of us are fascinated each time by the whole set up...it really is a fun experience.

We had to wait a little while this past time, as the people who do the recording were all busy with other projects when we got there. The kids were so patient and well behaved, and I was very appreciative,as it is not really a place that is conducive to loud sounds and rambunctious behavior!!!

As I finished recording, A said "I wish that we could record something some time." The lady helping us (the host of the night time show) kindly responded with an idea that maybe they could do something for VBS or something like that and then offered to show the kids around and take them to the kitchen for a cookie or cupcake. As we were leaving, the female host of their morning show stopped us and wanted to know if we had time to record some things for the station (the kids loved the fact that her co-host said they had great voices!!) We then had the opportunity to record Bible verses, the radio station's slogans and a short spot on what the station means to our family. We got to meet several of the dj's. Everyone was so kind, friendly and patient! The atmosphere there really shows that it is not just a job to those people. They really do love the Lord and live it out in their attitudes and actions! What a blessing it is to have a station like that here in our town!!

So, stayed tuned during the month of January and be on the "listen" for A and J3!!! They did a great job!
