My most favorite one is KHCB 105.7 here in Houston. Totally listener supported and they have great programming like Unshackled, Stories of Great Christians, Revive Our Hearts, etc.<BR/><BR/>Second for me is AFR's local station 88.3 and then 89.3 KSBJ. KSBJ is the most contemporary of the three.<BR/><BR/>Anyhoo, I hope you find a good station that will encourage you and convince you to buy a ton of stuff!<BR/><BR/>Marsha<BR/><BR/>PS YES, I am planning on going to the THSC convention in August!!!

In huge letters it said somehting about the health risks of these eating disorders and being too thin and then captioned the pictures with "so and so - 5" 7" 90 pounds" - you get the picture. Then right next to it there was a picture of Kelly CLarkson, who, while not skinny, is certainly not unhealthily fat and of course the caption was something derogatory about her weight. <BR/>I notice in a lot of magazines there will be an article on losing weight by not eating carbs, sugar or whatever and then on the next page there will be recipes for chocolate cake with big glossy pictures to entice...<BR/>Talk about contradictory. No wonder everyone is confused. You are a target no matter if you are skinny, fat, or in between. Everything you eat could be potentially making you fat, unhealthy or causing the world to heat up prematurely. Yikes.<BR/>It isn't Christian radio, of course, I guess you would hope they would have a higher standard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706394268101035148.post-4039052468773853232007-06-20T06:47:00.000-05:002007-06-20T06:47:00.000-05:00I listen to my CD's mostly or when I do listen to ...I listen to my CD's mostly or when I do listen to the radio, it's KLTY (Christian music station) here in Dallas/Ft Worth. I have to tell you, I tune out the commercials for the most part but I will have to pay attention now.<BR/><BR/>I doubt we'll see Evan Almighty at the theatre. I see from the trailers that there is some humor in it but it doesn't appear to be my kind of thing. I'll be interested to see what Christians say about it.<BR/><BR/>We enjoy the FoxFaith films a lot and try to get to the theatres and see them as soon as they come out. "The Ultimate Gift" will be coming to DVD soon! Yippe! One of the best movies I've seen this year! That and "The Last Sin-Eater"!<BR/>ConnieConstancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748558090320737035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706394268101035148.post-79451136585091067172007-06-20T04:48:00.000-05:002007-06-20T04:48:00.000-05:00Sounds like it's worth listening to the once a yea...Sounds like it's worth listening to the once a year "share-a-thons" not to have commercials on the christian radio station.<BR/>Yea WGH 91.9!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03013947479211215908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706394268101035148.post-36530963495892045782007-06-19T16:01:00.000-05:002007-06-19T16:01:00.000-05:00I haven't listened to Christian radio in years.

I'll see if I can check out that Peretti program. I love his books!<BR/><BR/>Yes!

So while they do have radio-thons periodically to get their money, there are no commercials and a lot more music. <BR/><BR/><BR/>I'm curious to read Focus on the Family's review of <I>Evan Almighty</I> when it comes out. Actually, <I>Bruce Almighty</I> did give a lot of food for thought. If only they could have just left out all the garbage that came with it. *sigh* I can't, in good conscience, recommend BA. We'll see about EA.<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!Drewe Llynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00916909818444432655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706394268101035148.post-85074607719687904562007-06-19T11:23:00.000-05:002007-06-19T11:23:00.000-05:00Local stations, especially the ones not in some so...Local stations, especially the ones not in some sort of network, need to pay for there radio airwaves anyway they can. So, you get the hokie commercials, no matter how it contradicts with the station. Listen to a local sports talk station thats not on the ESPN network and you here way too many hair replacement ads.<BR/><BR/>Evan Almighty is a sequel to Bruce Almighty.

I don't find the commercials quite as "commercial" as what you described- I certainly don't hear them promoted the Evan Almighty anyways. That does sound a bit risky. I really enjoy Focus on the Family,as well as Family Life Today. Do you get their broadcast (FL Today)?Halfmoon Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12050121358001735700noreply@blogger.com
