Our Website is down, please pray

Would you believe it?

A twelve year old boy named Logan (who listens to KSBJ via SkyAngel) called in a couple of weeks ago while I was filling in on the Morning Show and talked about having to put his calf down.  He told us that he asked God why he had to do that….and that God told him that his Son was special.  This was an amazing, awe-inspiring conversation from an incredible preteen.

The call was put on our website and began receiving so many hits that it exceeded our band width!

That call has gone around the world and back again.  My mom received it from a friend in San Antonio and then a cousin in Montana!

It is so interesting how God works….He can work in the hearts of twelve year old boys and impact millions of people.

Please pray for our website.

Moving to the New Page!!

I’m moving…..

Nope, not packing a thing….Just moving to a different web page.

 KSBJ has a webpage for the Sunday Night Show now!  And with it, comes more choices of how to get information out.  And a new blog!

So that’s the scoop.  Go to ksbj.org and then click on the ON AIR tab, then all the way to the right you’ll find Sunday Night.

See ya there!

And for those of you who have been reading this blog for the last several months, thanks for keeping with me!

He doesn’t know what he’s saying!

On Sunday nights I’m at KSBJ working the show.

That means my husband is home, being SUPER DAD!

He’s so great at it!  He makes pizza every Sunday night, homemade.  He rents a family movie and puts Rachel and Ben to bed.  It is their one-on-one time with daddy.

Last Sunday night, he was kissing Rachel goodnight as he tucked her in bed.  Ben came in, impatient.

“Come onnn, Daad!” he said.

“I’ll be right there, I’m kissing your sister goodnight.  I like kissing pretty girls.  Don’t you like kissing pretty girls?” My husband asked.

“No, Dad!  I like kissing BAD girls!”  Ben said. 

I don’t think he knows the difference.  Although he does tend to favor blondes and redheads, and they are usually the ones who reject him.

Like just last month, he proposed to a girl on the beach at Castway Cay.  They were just sitting in the sand, playing.

“Will you marry me?” he asked.

She was a cute little blond, only about 4 (like him) and she looked over at him and said, “NO!!!” and went back to playing.

Ben wasn’t too thrilled, but he got over it pretty fast.  He doesn’t propose to girls all the time.  It happens once in a while.

Hey, I take it as a compliment.  Ben sees our marriage working out great and it’s only natural he’d want to be married too!

Traveling in rain

I’m waking up to more rain.  My husband says if a big palette of wood shows up, he’ll start building the ark!

I may need a boat motor to get through today.  I’m taking the kids to see my parents and sister.  It’s a 3 hour drive.  They don’t know it yet, but my sister is moving out of state.  She’s supposed to tell them tonight.  I think Ben is too young to understand but I think Rachel will be sad.  She and her Tia have really bonded.  I think it’s sad too, but I know that God has called my sister to greater things.

Last year, Tia and I had a breakthrough in our relationship.  We had not communicated on anything other than a superficial level in years.  She made an apology to me for some stuff that happened and the chains fell. We talk almost everyday now. 

She’s going to a ministry school out of state.  She wants to help women who are hurting and looking for healing in their lives.  There’s such a need for that.

I know this is God’s plan, and I look forward to what He’s going to do.  I think by moving she will be expanding her borders.

My kids will understand.

I got it!!

I’m so excited!  Just a day before my birthday Chuck Pryor came in while I was filling in for Susan O’Donnell and made the announcement–I’m the new Sunday Night talk show host!  This is a dream come true for me.  It’s funny how God knows our dreams and sets things in motion without us ever really asking.  What a great birthday present!

This all started when Chuck emailed me and asked me if I would consider trying out for the Sunday Night show.  I had been filling in for both the Morning and Afternoon Show for almost two years.  I had never done an hour of live talk before; let alone a call in show!  I was thrilled and a bit nervous.  A friend of mine said, “You go in there and tell him, this is where I shine.”  It’s good to have friends who see things in you that you don’t see.  I thought about that as I went to meet with him.  I got up the courage, said it to him, and as I did I prayed, “Lord, please let that statement be so!”

So my first show was Father’s Day, June 17th.  I chose to do a show on Santa Maria, a great organization here in Houston that helps women get off drugs and alcohol; and allows them to take their kids to the rehab program.  My husband said, “So, you wanted to start with something non-contraversial?” (LOL)  That show was amazing.  We had so many calls and many of the people were so broken.  It made me realize my friend was right; I could do this but it was not me who would shine.  It was Jesus living through me.  Everything I do is for Him.  Not me.

So, here I am, planning show after show.  Every show I do I think about the listeners.  What would they like to know about and learn about?  How would they ask my guests a question if they were in the room?

Then, I was given web blog training.  I will be getting a Sunday Night show page in a couple of weeks.  But until then, I can start my own blog.  They showed us how to do that yesterday.  So here I am, blogging!  What a kick!

Every Sunday is an opportunity to give Houstonians information about things that affect their lives.  I look forward to doing just that!
