Think God is too busy to care about the little things?
Last week, on my Facebook, listeners were sharing what school supplies their kids really wanted for the new year. One listener, Jenn, wrote that she couldn’t afford all the stuff her kids wanted and she was shopping at the thrift store.
I received a personal message from one of our listeners who saw that post, and felt the Lord wanted her to help. She wanted to remain anonymous so she asked that we get her address and connect them. When I told Jenn that someone wanted to help, she said through her tears, “I can’t believe God would want to meet this little need of mine”.
So that was Monday.
Then Thursday came. We aired a call from a listener named Ann, who shared the back to school fashions that her kids really wanted this year. Her daughter, Rachel, is a precious special needs 10 year old, who really wanted this iCarly back pack. But Ann couldn’t find it anywhere! It appeared to be sold out- even online.
Another listener, Teresa, heard Ann sharing her daughter’s desire for this backpack. A little thing right? But to a 10 year old girl, a big thing. And Teresa, a total stranger, feels compelled on her way in to work, (in Annapolis) to take a detour. She pulls into the Target and looks, and finds the iCarly backpack! She buys it for Ann’s daughter, along with some iCarly dvds.. And drives to the station (in Arbutus) to drop it off for Ann to pick up.
Teresa tells me through her tears, that she was just so happy to be used by God.
And I’m thinking I want to be like both of these ladies.. So willing, so flexible with my plans that if God calls me to drop everything to go serve someone-I’d be willing. That is, after all, the body of Christ. The Acts 2 church in the present day- taking care of each other. Reflecting the heart of the Father and proving yet again, He really does care about the little things.
And by the way… the listener, Ann, who wanted that backpack for her daughter? She was the “anonymous” person who reached out to Jenn with some help buying school supplies.
Just amazing!

This past Monday Dave was in Nashville hanging out with Matthew West as part of a small group of radio people from around the country (Our own Jack and Erin were there too).
Matthew has a new album coming out in October and all the songs are from stories submitted by his fans earlier this year. He received over 10,000 submissions and spent two months in a cabin going through the stories and writing the songs that will be included on this record.
On Monday afternoon, everyone went to a cabin with Matthew and were divided into four small groups. Each group was given a story from the 10,000 submission and told to go "write a song." Dave’s group had a story from a mom whose two year old child developed an incurable disease where she lost all her hair (Alopecia Universalis).
Dave's group spent about two hours writing a song based on that story but with a twist. After dinner, everyone gathered together in the living room of the cabin as Matthew West put music to the lyrics and performed the songs.

Hi Friends!
It's Mom's Summer Survival Guide: Part 4. Today we're talking to author and speaker Mary Hunt about some great, low-cost ideas for things to do with the kids this summer.
Mary has an amazing story of God's grace in her own life as she overcame a huge spending and debt problem. Her money crisis threatened to cost her family everything but with God's help and a real commitment to change, Mary learned the secret to debt-proof living. She's turned her life lesson into a ministry to help all of us who struggle getting the budget under control.
So, for our busy moms who are under the budget crunch and trying to figure out how to keep the kids happy this summer without spending money you don't have, Mary has some great ideas!

Mom's Summer Survival Guide - How to care for your spiritual life when you're taking care of everybody else

Hi friends!
We know Moms are super busy all the time but during the long, hot summer months, she's the activities coordinator for the whole family! Planning everyone else's fun, making sure meals are set, being chef, cheerleader and taxi service. It isn't easy. Schedules are changed, kids are out of school and there's so much to do.
And while the fun stuff is happening all around her, other things change too. Bible study groups often take summer breaks, there are changes in people's routines that affect how they have community. Church attendance drops significantly during the summer too.
So, how can Mom still grow in her faith and stay connected to God? It's always a battle isn't it?
Does finding time to be still and care for your personal spiritual life feel like mission impossible?
We have some great encouragement for you! We interviewed Women of Faith speaker, best selling author and singer Sheila Walsh. She has some wonderful words of wisdom for busy moms and everyone who struggles with finding ways to connect to God. Remember nothing is more important than the most important relationship in your life - you and Jesus.

I know it is hard to believe but the life of a Christian radio broadcaster isn't all glamor and glitter. We also have to spend time in fun and exciting meetings (can't you tell??). I wanted to show you how I am able to get up at 3:30AM and still survive our meetings. I call it "Talk To The Cup!" - Mike
