Do you listen to christian radio?

[Mathews XT Man]

Since Im able to I listen to VCY America from 8;30 am till 12;00 noon, which has great pastors preaching all morning, then I switch to a contemporary Christian music station for the afternoon.

[HarvDog]

I do the same thing...preaching/teaching in the mornings (Insight for Living, Focus on the Family, Family Life Today, Truth for Life) then contemporary Christian music in the afternoon.

I used to, while traveling around in the truck, but my reception is the pits in the ol' truck now, and all I get is garble.
Sometimes I turn something good on to listen to while painting, if I remember my radio.

Not all of the time, but yes. Here is a link to their website Steve if you'd like to listen without all the garble.

I listen to K-Love most of the time when driving! If not that I usually have a C.D. in! But I do still have to have my country aswell! As far as CD's go....love J. Camp, Todd Agnew, New Song, Mercy Me.....just to name a few!

I don't know how I totally missed this thread when I posted mine about the same basic thing....but here's what I wrote there. I'll ask them to delete the other thread.

There are two shows that I really like, Truths that Transform and Let the Bible Speak both of which are on VCY America. They have some other decent shows as well. Me, being the nerd that I am, have serious problems with the theology of some of their hosts (even the two shows I like), but they still have some pretty good programming.

We have the VCY flagship in Milwaukee and another Christian talk radio station. The other one has some decent stuff, but I'm really turned off because every afternoon all they have is infomercials.

They have the vitamin guy who talks about how vitamins can effectively "cure" diabetes but continually reminds us he's "not a doctor" and it's only his "opnion." They also have the invest-in-gold guy who talks about how gold is the only investment and preys on the fear of people--it's absolutely ridiculous.

By the way, it sounds like VCY dropped Insight for Living....not sure exactly why.

Marky, you can go on VCY America.org and get the position paper on why they let him go...I have read it and he has made some statements that were not appropriate from the puplpit.

[markyj987]

Oneida, what do you think of the decision by VCY? Should they have done that?

I know when I first became a Christian, I listened to Chuck Swindoll a great deal and really enjoyed his program because he seemed "real" and I could relate to what he said.

Some of what he said certainly was inappropriate, but I do think many of the things VCY complained about were kind of ridiculous in my opinion.

On the other hand, I see how other preachers like Alan Cairns can preach a powerful sermon--that guy's really good--without using some of the language Chuch Swindoll does.

Swindoll's explanation of his medical exam was totally inappropriate and I can see why that would be offensive to many. One of the more ridiculous things I think was VCY's taking offense to a preacher saying, "Get your buns in gear." That was almost silly.

Yes, I find that the Lord is always talking to me through the radio preachers. Family Life network out of New York state is great when i am in range. I also listen to a more local station to and from work.

[Mathews XT Man]

Marky..from what I understand, VCY has been after him for years to clean up the language, and he just keeps going off course. It did not seem that he was going to correct the speech, so they did the right thing as far as Im concerned.

[TreeWalker]

I listen to Christian radio every chance I get....especially when on the road....

K-Love is the only thing we've got here beside the old time gospel hour type stuff.

We can listen to it if the wether is good. When it's cloudy, it doesn't come in.

[RangerClay]

K-Love just took over our local radio station. I don't like it. I want my classic country music back.
