At the end of this month, many of us will sit down to a plate full of way too much food, and thank the Lord for his provision over the past year. We may think about others who are much less fortunate than we are, and we may even do something about it. Maybe you are serving in a soup kitchen, donating to a food pantry, or even inviting someone to join you for Thanksgiving dinner.
Are you the type of person who looks forward, or backward? Maybe you do a little bit of both, or maybe you are a one-step-at-a-time person looking neither too far forward or too far back. That healthy balance can be really...
Going back to school can be an exciting (or terrifying) time, depending on your perspective! I realized as I watched...
"No news is good news" or so the old saying goes. It turns out though, the majority of WIVH's listeners (as well as those of our sister station WRGN), don't agree with that statement. We appreciate all of you who have taken the time to respond to our survey over the past two months concerning the news that we carry on WIVH.
One of my favorite things about working in radio is the opportunity to do interviews . Whether it's interviewing a part of our listening family during Share-A-Thon, talking to someone about an event that is coming up, or interviewing an author about a recent book release, I enjoy asking questions that make people think.
"And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars..." (Matthew 24:6a). Does it feel to you like this first is happening right before our eyes? If so, would you believe me if I told you that's a good thing? Let's finish out the verse...
"I can't do it all!" Okay, so maybe you look at that statement and say, "Of course you can't!" My problem is, I look at that statement and...
I recently heard someone say "I want to be a better person." It made me think, "What would make ME a better person?" I'm not talking about superficial things like losing weight or exercising more... you know, the typical New Year's resolution. I'm talking about "what changes could I make, SHOULD I make, to better reflect the life of Christ?"
We have a cousin whose birthday falls around Christmas Day, and his day can easily get lost in the shuffle of the holiday season. Ironically, it's actually easy for the birth of our Savior to get lost in the shuffle of the holiday season!
Because we tend to listen to radio when we are by ourselves, it's easy to forget that radio has the power to reach thousands of people every day. Think about it, while you may be driving alone in your car and listening to WIVH, the person passing you in the other direction could be listening to exactly the same program at the same time! The gospel message, the song that is encouraging you, the story that is bringing tears to your eyes–it may be doing the same to someone else at exactly the same time!
