Adoption is finally “cool.”Adoption is finally “cool.”

For generations it came with an

unfortunate stigma, because

somehow we thought an adopt-

ed child came with more mystery and

risk than a natural-born child.

But today, it’s popular and encour-

aged by everyone, it seems. Ministries

both domestic and international have

sprung up, as we finally address the

great needs of our world’s children.

God actually gets credit for the first

“adoption program.” Our holy God, the

Creator of all mankind, looked at those

whom He created (us!) and saw that we

were fatherless. To adopt us brought no

surprises: He knew that we were mur-

derers, gluttons, and idolaters. He didn’t

adopt us despite our evil hearts; he

adopted us because of our evil hearts.

Some of us have an additional

member in our family this

year. We’ve added a chair to our kitchen

table. We support one more child whose

beautiful picture will hang on our fridge.

We’ve hugged a child who is the brunt of

so much bullying. These are often sacri-

ficial gestures, and they bring our Savior

great joy. Our hope is that, as we adopt

in 2012, we will always be motivated by

the sacrifice that was

made on our behalf: We

were adopted by the

Holy Creator, and we have

the tremendous privilege of

calling Him, “Abba, Father.”

And that is very “cool.”

“I listen to Faith Radio every morning while I get ready and

prepare for the day. I love the praise music, David Jeremiah

and the morning crew - Pamela and Andrew. I listen at

other times when I am cleaning house, cooking in the kitchen

and at the end of the day when I’m taking off my makeup.

So literally, I start and end the day with Faith Radio.

Every year it is a pleasure to give my (campaign) contribution

to Faith Radio - a station that blesses me every time I’m tuned

in. And I know by giving, it will keep on blessing me and

others in need.” - note by email

“I don’t have much other to say than keep up the good work.

I started listening to Faith Radio about 8 years ago as a new

Christian and I have benefited so much by the programming.

John McArthur, Chip Ingram, Charles Stanley and Tony

Evans to name a few, have really helped me with my walk of

faith. Thank you so much!” - sent from an iPhone

“Thanks FAITH Radio for all of the times of refreshment.

May God continue to bless and bless and bless you! ‘He Who

Refreshes Others Will Himself Be Refreshed.’ (Proverbs

11:24)” - sent through the Faith Radio website

“I have been through many storms in my life, especially the

past 4 years and you were always there. There were times

when I couldn’t sleep in the late hours of the night. I could

reach and turn on the radio and find encouragement. Thank

you for encouragement in some of the darkest hours of my life.

I’m sure there are many others that feel the same way. May

God greatly Bless your ministry to Montgomery and the

world!” - Montgomery, AL

“My husband and I are in Savannah, Georgia and I really

didn’t want to miss my morning routine with you guys.

So, I connected, via my computer, and there you are!

Wonderful to hear you and the uplifting songs on Morning

Praise the last two days. Thanks for being “Faith”ful Radio.”

by Pamela Neu, co-host of “Morning Praise”

Years ago, I attended a

women’s conference. The

speaker asked each of us

how we worship. Many said they sing,

some said they lift their hands. I said,

“I paint.” And the questions came: Do

you paint with oils or watercolors? Do

you do portraits or still life? Do you

pray while you paint?”

“I prefer a roller. Color is more fun,

but white is okay, too.” You see, as

much as I wish I could create a woman

on canvas, no matter how I try, she will

look like a tree. It’s not my gift. Walls

are my platform of worship. They’re

where I see God (in the color, the tex-

ture, the transformation); and doing

excellent work is an honor, because

it’s what He asks me to do.

Each day we receive letters at Faith

Radio mentioning favorite preachers or

programs you enjoy so much. Every

word of feedback is considered, as we

design a day to help you learn about,

obey, and worship God. But if we

simply put this in the file of “good

radio,” we will be sorely lacking.

Serving God with excellent Christian

radio is a form of worship. And hearing

how it enhances your worship? That’s

just sheer fun!

“Thanks for all the times of

refreshment.” - Carolyn

“I drive 16 miles a day through some

great forests and pine plantations. With

WLBF and God’s abundant creation, it

is a great way to start the day.” - Jim

Encouraging you in your faith is

our job, but it’s also our worship.

Consider your job for a minute:

whether you’re swinging a hammer,

balancing the books, or changing a

dozen diapers, do it well and honor

the Lord with your excellence! Our

prayer is that He will reward that

precious time of worship!

Encouraging youin your faith is

our job, but it’s also our worship!

Christian Radio in your HOM

A neighbor in Elmore, AL whose home was destroyed.

Around the world each week,hundreds of millions of peopletune into Christian radio. For

many, radio may be the only mass-mediathey can access. In other parts of theworld, people are so desperate to learnthe English language, they will listen toanything! Having Christian radio broad-casts, provides for God’s Word to beheard, absorbed and shared with others.

Within the last year, we met andhosted colleagues from three differentareas of the world to share and learnhow God is at work through radiobroadcasts. Visiting our broadcast stu-dios were Tosh Suwaratana of Christ forThailand, Patrick and Daniel Okabe ofFaith Radio Uganda, and Kate Michel ofThe Evangelistic Voice of Haiti. Each ofthese Christian radio ministries haveunique needs and languages; however,they all have the same life message tobroadcast: Jesus loves you, and wants togrow His relationship with you. Duringtheir visits’ to Montgomery, we helpedeach of these fellow broadcasters under-stand more about our Faith Radio net-work of stations, our satellite up-link anddown-link to our remote transmitters,and setting up automation systems. Wehad the opportunity to show and trainthem on small solar hand-held radios,which are effective tools that allow peo-ple in remote villages to pick up radiobroadcasts. We were able to share howGod has enlarged our broadcast cover-age area over the years, and reflected on

God’s faithfulness, as He continues topour out His blessings on our ministry.A recap of our international visitors toFaith Radio include:

ThailandChrist for Thailand USA, Inc.www.christforthailand.orgTosh  expressedwith us thehardships theyendure due tothe absence ofr e g u l a t i o n .Unlike theUnited StatesFCC (FederalCommunicationCommission),Thailand exer-cises very little control over radio broad-casts. This has created some obstaclesfor each broadcaster, as they are bur-dened with protecting their coveragearea, while also guarding the distortionof signals and tune-in frequencies ofother stations. We were able to reviewand share some of Faith Radio’s Bibleteaching broadcasts that can be pro-grammed to accommodate the languages in Thailand.

Tosh’s ministry also includes the onlyChristian camp in northeast Thailand.Camp Moriah, a 50 acre area, is utilizedto host training conferences to equip andencourage pastors in Thailand.

At Faith Radio, we are blessed to be able to reach thousands of people throughout Alabama and

the Southeast region by communicating life-changing messages through Bible teaching and

music. With the ever-changing world of technology, we are capable of touching lives from our

neighborhoods to the nations. As we work with other ministries around the world, we are

reminded that the language that everyone understands is the language of God’s love.

HaitiRadio 4VEH, The Evangelistic Voice of Haitiwww.radio4veh.org

Our friends in Haiti have a project called Resounding Hope, which has distributed over 60,000 solar radios inthe villages of Haiti. For many Haitians,this is their only electronic device; how-ever, it is connecting them to God’sWord. The radio, which broadcasts inthe native language of Creole, is one ofthe most effective ways to spread the message of Christ because manyHaitians cannot read. There are manyongoing mission projects to Haiti to distribute solar radios, and severalopportunities for your church to create ateam and go on mission to Haiti!

UgandaImpact Ministries, Faith Radio, Ugandawww.impactministriesuganda.orgWe have had two weekly stays from ourfriends we met this year at a Christianradio convention in Nashville. Danieland Patrick Okabe visited with us toreview various equipment componentswe utilize to communicate the messageof Christ. We had the opportunity toinform and train them on studio-trans-mitter link systems, which would beeffective in spreading their messagesthroughout the mountainous regions ofUganda. Our engineering team workedon some diagram plans for enlargingtheir population coverage area from 7 million to 34 million people.Broadcasting primarily in English, it was easy to communicate and exchange ideas about touching lives for Christ inMbale, Uganda.

Throughout the Faith Radio listening area,we see so many cars and trucks with theFaith Radio logo. We had a letter recent-

ly where a listener wrote, “y’all are exactly what Ineeded when GOD yanked me off the path Ihad strayed to. I found you right in front of myeyes one day when I was particularly low. I didn’tknow where to turn. Then I saw a magnet on acar telling me about Faith Radio – and here weare now. I’m happy for the first time in years, I mean really happy!”

God can use anything to draw people to Him,including a magnet on an old dirty car! Will you help communicate and direct people toTUNE-IN to the power of God’s Word on Faith Radio? Your vehicle can become a vessel that drives others toward Christ. Don’tunderestimate the power of a magnet... it mightjust lead the travelers around you to the messagethey need to hear today!

12 “Go and make disciples of all nations...” Matthew 28:19-20

It’s 2012 and

many of us

have decided

that this is the

year things are

going to be differ-

ent. We’re going to get more rest,

spend more time with the family, exer-

cise and eat right, and share the

Gospel with at least one person. We all

have good intentions. Those New

Year’s Resolutions are easy to make,

but not so easy to accomplish. That

requires discipline and self-sacrifice!

As Christians, we don’t need to be

so concerned with whether or not we

make resolutions each year regarding

our health, finances, evangelism or

spiritual growth. The important item to

consider is whether or not we have the

resolve to follow through on the com-

mitments we make. Are we determined

to make our lives count for Christ? Are

we dedicated to pursuing righteous-

ness and the things of God? Maybe, if

we were more insistent on knowing

God better, all of the other areas of our

lives would not be so difficult to main-

tain and our salvation testimony would

flow easily off our lips.

The apostle Paul was a great

example of one who was determined to

follow through on the commitments he

had made for God. In Philippians 3:12-

16, he encouraged the church by giving

a personal testimony: “…I am focusing

all my energies… I strain to reach the

end of the race…” Paul had made a

commitment and with God’s help, he

was putting all of his energy on accom-

plishing what needed to be done.

When we resolve to know God

and His Word better, other areas of life

will be much more manageable and

sharing the good news of Jesus with

others will be just another extension of

our lives. A natural habit. A way of life.

While it does require discipline and

hard work on our part, God will give us

the grace we need to accomplish His

work. Whether it’s diet and nutrition,

handling finances, or asking our

neighbors about their spiritual condi-

tions, God gives us the ability to do

what needs to be done. Now it’s up to

us to do the work, by using the tools

that He has provided us.

Faith Radio is one of those tools.

We offer incredible teaching and

preaching to build you up spiritually

and equip you to serve Him. We air

programs that focus on the develop-

ment and nurturing of your relation-

ships. And the music we play is

intended to guide you in your

own times of personal

worship. Resolve to use

this resource by listen-

ing at every opportu-

nity and imple-

menting the ideas

you hear into

your life. The

natural outflow

will be sharing

the Gospel.

Recently, in some opening com-ments to an edition of The Meeting

House, I mentioned a Scripturethat has been challenging to me for sometime. It comes from 2 Peter chapter 1,and begins with, “…add to your faithvirtue”, and then goes on to list a numberof God-honoring characteristics.

I believe this passage encourages usa believers to not only possess faith, butto allow that faith to drive our activityand determine our character. There is atendency to possess a “Sunday morning”faith which might look good in your bestoutfit, but doesn’t really influence howwe act the rest of the week – I desire forthe radio show to help bridge the gapbetween the sacred and secular, betweenbelief and application, and recent guestshave helped us to do that.

Guests such as:• david Jeremiah (“turning Point”),shared some God-inspired observationsabout the culture, on which he elabo-rates in his new book, I Never ThoughtI’d See the Day. • ray comfort of Living Waters

(“180”), who has produced a compelling short film challenging people to change their thinking on thetopic of abortion. • Glenn stanton presented someinsight on the importance of marriagein our society. • In advance of a special event inOpelika, Jonna chizik, wife of Auburnhead football coach Gene chizik (whoappeared on TMH in July to celebrate therelease of the book, All In), shared abouthow her faith in Christ has sustained herand her family in the midst of the pres-

sures of life in the public eye. Along the way, The

We have hundreds of people each day

accessing the Faith Radio website to

stay informed about community

events and search for local Christian programs.

During 2011, Faith Radio invested heavily in

updating our website to make it easier to search

and use. We also added the technology to

accommodate access by mobile devices (smart

phones and ipads). We have many people each

day that listen to our programs by streaming our

radio broadcast from the Faith

Radio website.

We invite you to share

with others the value of having

a central place to communi-

cate and learn where God is at

work in our churches and

community. On our website,

you will find a calendar of

events that contains informa-

tion ranging from concerts,

parenting seminars, divorce

care groups, blood drives, to

even major artist appearances!

We are currently working on

adding a "Now Playing" option

on our website that gives

information about our music and artists. We also

plan to add more in 2012 to improve our prayer

support team and media communication.

Most importantly, we have a place for you to

give a financial gift securely with your credit card,

which will help support this ministry and spread

the good news and love of Christ throughout our

listening area. We appreciate and invite your

feedback by sending your comments under the

"Contact Us" section of www.faithradio.org.

a memorial gift is a meaningful way to honor someone at the time of death by recognizing that person’s Christian faith and testimony. Similarly, an honorarium is a tangible way of honoring a living person’s testimony. We are thankful for individuals listed below who choose to honor friends and loved ones through a gift that extends the message of Christ through faith radio’s ministry.
