For 40+ years I tried to just be a good guy and even pleyed around with going to church and just going through all the motions until one day God put someone in my life that could just see right thru me this friend started shareing Christs love with me and he wouldn't give up and I tried everything that had worked with other christian's in the past all the scientific explanations all the rational's that I could come up with but one day after a very big dissapointment everything I had ever done came down on me and I was at work when once again he came up to me and all the anger and all the hate just came spewing out at him but instead of just walking away like so many had done before he said that Jesus loves me and so does he and that just left me sitting there shakeing and that nite sitting in my garage alone I finaly accepted Jesus into my heart for real and since that day I have not looked back now I truly know what real freedom is!!!
Praise God

It's been on my heart to share some of what God has done for me. when I was young, I grew up in several abusive homes, some more so than others. I ran away when I was 14 and began a life on my own, purposely forsaking my family and the Lord, all of whom I felt had forsaken me. I was on a mission to do anything that I thought would hurt God, because I felt it was his fault for not protecting me. In 2005 a natural disaster forced my daughter and myself to relocate to a town where we were hundreds of miles away from anything farmiliar. There, God sent an amazing pastor, and his equaly amazing family who adopted me not only into thier church but into thier family. In 2006 I was diagnosed with cancer at a young age and this church and this family cared for me and helped me in a way that my own biological family never had. This past fall my brother, the only family member I was ever close to and who I loved very much, lost his battle with the same cancer that I had been delivered from.For the first time, I can grieve without anger. Remember to always praise our Father and thank him not only for the blessings, but also for the trials. The 250 word limit of this posting is not nearly enough to ever say how great He is!

i've totally surrendered my future to God, but it wasn't always that way. i would say how i wouldn't date and instead wait for God to bring the right man into my life. but then i met someone. ignoring the warning signs i should have paid attention to, i pressed on for what i wanted instead of seeking God's will. we never got physically involved, but it did go to far emotionally. then it was over.i couldn't believe how far i had strayed from God. i didn't know what else to do but pray and ask God to forgive me for putting anything or anyone else before Him.
then i felt God's forgiveness,and this amazing peace. all the hurt seemed to be lifted and it felt like i could breathe again. and it was like, what should have been an emotional tragedy, was transformed into a learning experience.God showed me, not just where i went wrong, but what He was sparing me from. like God was helping me to learn from my mistakes, instead of suffering from them. God didn't just forgive me,He accepted me back with open arms. even though i went my own way, He has shown me amazing grace. He has repaired my heart.
i just want to encourage anyone else out there who is struggling with a broken heart. God loves you so much and His love heals.

i just wanted to take the opportunity to thank our Lord Jesus, for the price that was paid for the forgiveness of sins. Jesus died for people like me. so needy and desperate for him, i give him thanks for the work that he is doing in my life, i'm a single working mom of 2 young children, i thank the lord for up lifting me and blessing me with the freedom that comes from HIM. i thank him for his mercy and grace that is poured out in compassion for us sinners. i am grateful to know the lord and pray that he continue his work in me despite the circumstance. thank you Air1 for ministering to me on a daily basis. May God continue to work and bless this radio ministry.

i always played the fake christian life,pretending to b one. well the summer of 2008 my father passed away(with no medical problems)...and that last yr he lived,he always cared and loved me but i never told him i loved him back. I whispered 'i love u' when he was being placed into the ground.made me realize how God can take ur life at any time and the question came to mind, 'will i enter heavens'. the death did break me down and placed me to my knees. however, the death of my father helped me gain a life in heavens. So an uplifting encouragement is, Although the trials seem hard and u ask the question 'why?', remember the lord is in control and does all for the best. we wont see it at the moment but when u look back,the lord will have opeed ur eyes. So although i miss my father, ill have to thank the lord for the death my dad because now i have a true relationship with the king of kings.

Air1 is what I play most on my Radio. I enjoy listening to the morning show to get my day stared off on the right foot. Air 1 is real about expressing Christianity over the air waves, and that is what i like most of all. They also, keep me pluged into new music,and bands on the radio and on their website. Air1's website is full of information about all that is related to Christian music and i like that. They encourage me all the time even, when day's are dark. Above all, the people on this station are real and express that Christianity is fun and is more than the four walls most people see just on sunday mornings at Church. Thanks for all Air1 does. As Christians we need to keep praying for this station to stay a becon of truth on the radio!!

I didnt have a very good life growing up, and at the young tender age I was when all the bad things happend in my life i couldnt handle it. It had alot of negative effects on me emotionally and i got angry at every one and stayed that way for a long time. i suffered day in and day out and i wanted to hurt the people that ruined my life. just when i felt like giving in, i went to god and god pulled me out of the dark pit i had fell into. ever since then ive dedicated my life to serving our lord and savior. I found my calling in life through god and i have never felt so happy and alive. god has shown me that im not worthless and that people love me and i will pay any price to protect them and all innocent people, gods calling to me is to protect people and spread his message to all in need. I hope my story touches some one who is struggling. remember that you are not worthless and some one truely does love you and god will forgive you for any thing. he is always there for you and will help you on to your feet no matter how bad the things you have done. all you have to do is go to him.

I have to say, that I'm really stoked that you've been playing a lot of Sanctus Real songs. I've been living in Haiti and Honduras the past 4 months as a missionary, and had little to no communcation to any of my friends or family back here in the States. So the only real conncection I had to any sort of feeling of home, was through the music I listened to. Every morning at 5 I would have to get up and have a morning devotional where I'd spend time in God's word and in prayer, and would listen to music to help me feel more comfortable. I'd listen to a lot of Jimmy Needham, Israel Houghton, Needtobreathe, and Sanctus Real. But the last month I spent out of the States, "Face of love" by Sanctus Real was very infulental in my prayer time. It was always stuck in my head and heavy on my heart and I really loved the lyrics. Well, once I got back to my home in December and drove my truck for the first time, the song that was on the radio was "face of love." It was just so comforting to know, that even though I left for months, and was in a different country away from family and friends, that God was still using Air1 to speak truth to me, as well as all of its listeners. Thank you for all you do and God Bless!
