Family Life Now

Before I joined the Christian radio ministry team at Family Life Now as the Director of Radio, I spent 28 years in commercial radio. I learned a lot in those days about the competitive nature of the radio business, what it took to win, and how other stations in the market were viewed. As you can guess, that view was not a favorable one since those other stations were vying for the same listeners and the same advertising dollars as we were. Since coming to Family Life Now, I've learned that other Christian radio stations that can be heard in the markets where we have signals are not our"competition". They are our allies. While we may be directly affiliated with them, we all share a mission to grow followers of Jesus. Our approaches may be varied and different, but the goal is exactly the same. I often compare it to a community that has multiple churches. Unless it's a small town, no one single church could ever minister to or meet the needs of the entire community. Plus, no single preaching style could ever appeal to all believers. I don't take credit for this mindset, but it is one I heartily embrace. When we go to pray on air during our spring and fall fundraisers, our CEO prays for all of the other radio ministries with stations in our listening area. He mentions them individually by name, as well as the names of their general managers. We want God to bless them just as much as we want Him to bless the work we are doing because it isn't about us. It's not us versus them. It's all of us working together, as the body of Christ, to share the Gospel and hope we have in Jesus!
