Your Story

What People are Saying

 

I just had to say thank you. There are no words to describe how the music and messages have impacted my husband's and my life. There are times when nothing i say will reach him, so I pray and God speaks straight through those radio waves and right into his heart. Never let the reflection of God's beauty be underestimated. Thank you so much!

Renae

I find that, no matter what my mood, no matter what the situation, anytime I turn the radio on and hear Radio Shine, my spirits are lifted and calmed at the same time. Recently we had a heart-breaking incident within our family and as I thought the tears would never stop, I turned on the radio for some comfort and Laura Story's "Blessings" was just beginning. God's timing is always perfect! Thank you, Radio Shine!

Gail H

The first time I heard "You're My Little Girl" by GoFish, I was in total despair because my marriage was in trouble and I didn't know where to turn. When I listened to the words of the song that said, "I know you don't deserve what you've been through, but when you're crying in the night all you need to do is call Me and I'll be there". I felt like that Jesus talking right to my heart. That song has helped me to hang on in many situations because every time I was in distress, that song came on the radio and I could feel the peace that passes understanding come over me. Thank you Radio Shine for being there for me.

Debbie

Thank you so much, Christian radio is such a blessing you just don't know how much until you live somewhere that it is not available.

Steven

Radio Shine is my very favorite station. The music is so uplifting and I really enjoy the programs. Thank you to everyone that makes this station a regular part of my day.

Sarah

I want you all to know that you all do such a wonderful job. The music and all your programs help me get through the days. It seems the right things come on at the right time whenever I am going through a particular situation. You all are wonderful. Keep up the great work!

Jeanne

Thank you for all the wonderful ways you shine in the lives of those who love our Lord, and also for those who don't ...but will. God bless your ministry.

Susie

Thank you Radio Shine for all the blessings, prayers,support, love, and being a true family to me! I love each and everyone of you so much, and you have played such an important part in my life, God has blessed me with you all!

Josie G

Just recently, I had spinal fusion surgery for scoliosis. after the surgery I remember being in my little room, and in a lot of pain. It was very quiet and so I decided to turn on the radio to the only station that I will listen to, Radio Shine, just in time for the song "strong enough" to come on. I had never heard that song before and when I heard it, I was determined to heal quickly. I felt so inspired by that song that I recovered quicker than expected. Thank you Radio Shine for playing that song at the time you did.

Stephanie

God Bless you and all that you do! You're station has been such a blessing in my life and for my family too!

Candace M

Thank you for everything you do to get me through the day. I am fortunate to be able to work at a place where I can freely listen to Radio Shine everyday. I like to close my door to my office so I can crank up the music.

Laura C

The song that touches my heart the most is "Hurricane" by Jimmy Needham. For 9 years, my heart became hardened to the Lord for taking my dad on my 21st Birthday. I never was publically angry with Him but just never realized I was growing further and further away. One day I was flipping through the radio channels and heard Jimmy Needham on the radio. Those first words of the song..."I need you like a Hurricane" pierced through my heart and I started crying right there in the car driving down I-17. I realized it was God asking for my forgiveness and to let me know that it is ok to let my guard down and let Him back into my life where I can be closer to both my Heavenly Father and my earthly father. After that day, I never looked back. God and I are closer than ever. I just cannot believe what a few words to a song can bring out. I love the Lord with all my heart now and like to listen to that song to reaffirm what God did for me and what turned my life around almost 3 years ago.
Thank you Radio Shine for your encouragement to me and my fellow Arizonians. Keep up all that you do.
Love in Christ, Thank you Radio Shine for your encouragement to me and my fellow Arizonians. Keep up all that you do.

Sharon N

Best Christian radio station ever! Such a variety of subjects, people, views, etc. The only station my radio is ever set on! God bless you all!

Lisa D

Thank you so much. Whenever I feel alone or lost, Radio Shine always seems to put the right music on or Focus on the Family has the perfect guest speaker.

Kristy B

I started going to church here in Cottonwood with my Mom about 2 years ago. We attend New Hope Christian Fellowship and for the worship part of our service, we sing along with beautiful music videos of songs like the ones played on Radio Shine. The first time I heard "I Refuse" by Josh Wilson I believe the Lord was speaking to me through Josh's song because this was the first time I've ever felt truly called to "get up off of my duff" and DO SOMETHING to make my world and the world in general a better place and to really TALK to people about Jesus. Since then, I have been helping my church with the food service program, my Mom and I clean the church twice a week, I have become very active in "going green", animal activism and writing about all of these things online. Thank you God, Josh and Radio Shine for giving me the push that I needed! P.S. Josh's CD "see You" was the first Christian CD that I ever bought but it wont be the last!

Lisa D

Your station is a blessing.

Renee V

Thank you for your ministry. I love Dave's show in the morning.

Charles A

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the fact that you are still playing Christmas music. I had just finished decorating my tree and house for Christmas. Then my father passed. I had to be away from home for the last three weeks so did not have Christmas at home. I arrived back in Flagstaff on Wed. afternoon and have been able to listen to the music and finally put my tree lights on. It may be late, but it's still like I wanted it to be. Thank you again for your programming.

Carole

Thank you for your wonderful radio station. It is such a blessing in my life!

Peggy

Thank you SO much for playing ALL Christmas music early in December this year! I love it all & we only get to hear it in December! So thanks for making my Christmas a little brighter!

Franci

Thank you for continuing to play Christmas music through the true Christmas season! So many secular stations play Christmas music through Advent and then stop playing Christmas music on December 25. Our true Christmas season runs through Epiphany. I have been very pleased to hear Christmas music the past two days (Dec. 26 and 27).
Love your station. Thanks for all you do!

Chris W

Thanks for all you do with your radio ministry!

Jesse

Thank you so much for always being there when I need a pick me up.

Jocelyn K

Thank you for all the encouragement your station brings to soooo many!

Sherilyn

I just want to thank you for playing the most awesome mix of Christmas music this year. It always seems to be so lacking on Christian radio and for the life of me I cannot understand why now of all times we do not celebrate Christ in Christmas, even when secular stations do to a degree. I usually just lkisten to my iPod in the car of my own music (i currently have 190 Christmas cd's), but we have listened every day and you continue to play stuff we have not heard. I can't thank you enough and you have truly made our holiday so special. God bless and have a blessed holiday!

Rob

Love you!

Nadya

Thank You For You All at Radio Shine you All do an Awesome Job!

Lili

Thank you for the huge blessings of your radio station! God bless everyone at Radio Shine!

Jason A

I have a 40 minute drive to and from work. Your station allows me to meditate and focus on God's greatness. Going to work, it helps me to get ready for the day and coming home, it helps me to unwind. Thank you for sharing God's Word and Spirit with me and everyone else that has the radio on!!!

Marla S

Abby

Everyday I drive into Prescott during the week to work. I also bring my cousins two children into town so they can attend middle school. On the ride in we listen to Dave and love to try and answer the On This Day question. We have actually won and the kids can't wait until we are eligible to call in again. We also enjoy discussing the looney laws and the fun facts. I am praying for an opportunity to have a discussion with them both about having a personal relationship with Jesus. Thank you so much for everything you do to bring the good news of Jesus Christ to this community!

Pam D

Tony G

The Radio Shine team was there with their wonderful selection of worship and praise music picked out specifically to help me and my family deal with the tragic murder of my daughter. I felt as if every song was meant specifically for me and the peace and grace that God provided through all of you has been a miracle in our lives. Thank you so much for what you do and never stop allowing God to use you to minister to those of us in need.
Blessings to you all,

Ida

It is amazing what Radio Shine has done for our family. From the effect it has had on my son growing up listening to the station, coming to Christ at age 15, and still walking with the Lord as a 20-year-old college student, to the effect it has had on my husband and I. We have enjoyed listening to the music and going to see Christian bands with our son and his friends, meeting other Christians through volunteering at the Radio Shine fundraisers, and meeting some of your business underwriters who are fixing our house! We enjoy the music and the teaching at night. It is of paramount importance to us that this station not only survives, but thrive. I think of all the other lives that have been affected, as ours has. Think of all those that this station reaches, where no other form of communication could. Radio Shine is very effective in reaching many, who might not otherwise hear the gospel. Everyone please generously support this ministry. You will make a difference for eternity.
God bless Radio Shine and it's wonderful staff!

Marilyn R

Radio Shine has always been there for our family, in prayer and friendship. We continue to enjoy listening far from AZ; here in North Central Kansas. Love you guys!

Shad C

Thank you for your dedication, loyalty and for all your songs. They always seem to lift me up and keep me focused on the real thing that's really important!!!! That is Jesus Christ who died on the cross for us!! God bless you and the whole staff at Radio Shine! Thank you.

Bruce W

I love this station because I love being able to feel close to God, while listening to the radio! It's just an amazing thing that I enjoy immensely! I'm really glad that radio shine took the guts to say "LET'S SHARE GOD'S MUSIC ALL OVER ARIZONA!" I don't think that I could ever thank you enough for the encouragement, enlightenment, and everything else that this station provides me with everyday! :)
Thank you!!!

Kaylee W

I love hearing this station while living in Prescott Valley. Listening to the music always raises my spirits & renews my hope!

Chantelle F

It brings encouragement because it seems like at just the right moment, the right song is played.

Todd Z

Listening to Christian music on Radio Shine has been such a blessing in my life by bringing me joy on my days, goods days, and every day. It helps me get to know songs that have Biblical truths that I can sing throughout the school day helping me to keep a good attitude for non believers to see. I love music and it means a lot to have a radio station that allows that love to grow. Thank you Radio Shine!

Stephanie K

Christian music has made a positive impact on my life because when and If I'm having a rough day the music keeps me in a positive frame of mind, and it makes me count all my blessings each day.

Stephanie H

It helps me to keep my thought life positive, and the lyrics always seem to pop up at the most needed times!

Shannon C

Listening to Christian music helps me keep my focus on Jesus and what He's done for me. It also gives me the opportunity to change the atmosphere at work.

Shana M

I like to sing praise to God and listening to the radio provides that outlet...especially since I can't sing well.

Ruth Ann C

Christian music keeps me focused and thankful prepares me to lead worship at my church Verde Baptist in Cottonwood, Az

Rick C

I have been listening to Christian music and radio for many many years...My car radio station might as well be stapled in place!! :) The music and talk...calms, teaches and reflects God's love for me every day. I would have it no other way!

Richard L

It helps shape my day into praise and worship. Rather than getting through a day, I thoroughly enjoy my days.

Nevitta M

A few years ago when I was going through depression Christian music was the one thing that kept me focused and kept me going. We would play it through the night so it would be on in the morning when we woke up. It helped me to be able to keep getting up and get through the day. Now we have it playing all the time just to remind us how great God is and how blessed we are.

Micheal W

It allows me to access Christian values and attitudes, even while I am traveling (which I do a lot)! I can be working out on the Reservation, and still get to hear great Christian music and messages. I love having that kind of influence readily available in my life!

Megan W

Listening to Radio Shine helps me to keep my mind focused on the Lord throughout the day! Thank you.

Lori B

The songs really bring Joy to the times where there is none, love into the times of hate, faith into the times of worry, and last but not lest Jesus into the time of evil.

Lizzy E

Well, whenever I have an issue that I feel is insurmountable, I turn on the radio and hear the words of GOD'S love and the message is ALWAYS directed to whatever the situation is. It helps make me a better person and a better Christian in my walk with the LORD.

Kelly O

It has helped to remember that God never leaves us nor forsakes us and He is always being shown through Radio Shine

Kati M

The music reinforces the blessings we have in our life; when things aren't going good the music just reminds me to look at the good things and see that no matter what is going on, I am still blessed. The shows, such as Focus on the Famiy, are so awesome to listen to. I try to apply what I have learned to my life all the time.

Katherine W

It blocks out the negative messages that I hear on secular radio. It is safe ALWAYS for my child to hear.

Karen B

I have only listened to Christian music for the past 11 years and it helps me get through life.

Janet B

It makes my attitude about life and people more positive and I'm tuned in to God more

Hannah D

God uses the music in my life to uplift me -- it is such a blessing to be able to listen.

Ginny H

Being able to enjoy God's Word through music in the styles that I prefer - the music touches hearts and heals souls... please please play: "I Can't Get Enough of You" by Scott Wesley Brown!!! Thank YOU. Peace

Gigi D

Christian Music keeps my ears, mind, and heart on Jesus Christ. It can and does rejuvenate my day.

Frank J

I was HUGELY into heavy rock. Once i accepted Christ in 96, i knew i needed to change. The secular lyrics were a negative influence on my kids AND me. It was a hard transition at first to learn all new bands and music, but now I'm SO very thankful and wouldnt listen to anything else. I'm thankful for Radio Shine as the local radio station, that keeps us up to date on contemporary music and Christian news and concerts.

Donna K

I take care of various school-aged children before and after school in my home (I am a full time online student for my Child Psych degree at Grand Canyon University) and I play Radio Shine just about non-stop both at home and in the car. Some of the children come from Christian backgrounds and others do not, but all of them are in hurting situations at home. I believe the seeds are being planted in their little lives and trust that God is using my home/car and your station as a vessel to share His love, in addition to the witness I try to be and the love, encouragement and hugs I give them. They may not remember much about me someday, but they will always remember that this was a Christian household filled with Jesus' Love. :) ~Dixie

Dixie Kirsten V

I put it on in the morning and it starts my day with a positive joyful attitude.

Dianna G

When I miss listening in the morning my day seems to be horrible... The music feeds my heart and soul and I am able to deal with the public with a sweeter attitude...

Diane M

It helps me make it through some tough days!

Denise M

A song always seems to come on the radio at just the right time as to speak to my heart regarding things I have been praying about.

Debbe H

Being a full-time worker and full-time mom, Radio Shine has kept me praising the Lord, and keeping my mind on the things of the Lord. It has sustained and encouraged me in ways I wouldn't have experienced not having time in the Word like I would like to.

Deana J

It gives me such a positive and it's a wonderful way to start my day!!

Dawn M

It lifts up my spirit and keeps me strong in The Lord, especially before going to school. I feel joy when I can praise and worship my Jesus through music. It's all I listen to. In fact, whenever I try to listen to the types of music my friends listen to, trying to connect with them that way, I just can't. I don't understand why even Christians can listen to secular music...it's pointless. But Christian music isn't pointless because we're lifting the name of God up and praising Him and acknowledging He is the King of kings and Lord of lords. Christian music impacts my life not only because I feel good and happy when I listen to it, but just knowing that it's true music that has a purposeful meaning. I'm sure that through God, Christian music is one of the reasons I'm the Christian I am today.

Danielle F

It's a daily reminder of God's love and sacrifice for me. It helps to keep me on track and focused on Him throughout the week.

Carrie Z

Thank you Jesus for this radio station amen and bless their socks off LORD,and may you shine through them everywhere they go.

Brad I

I like listening to Christian music because it fills my mind and life with God's word.

B.J. V

I have never made a habit of listening to secular music, but on the occasions that I hear it, it seems so hopeless and focused on the wrong things. I believe that Christian music has impacted my life by giving families a safe alternative so that I could grow up with good, hope filled, Christ-centered music.

Audrey K

Radio Shine keeps me from listening to secular music that I KNOW isn't pleasing to God! It also helps me be in a better, more positive mood - that's a side effect of hearing about my Creator in the music instead of about worldly things!

Anna M.

Thank you to all the staff and volunteers who took part in the fundraiser. God bless you!! This radio station and all the people behind its doors are a blessing from God. I am eternally grateful.

Jacquelyn M.

I am thanking God for the wonderful gift we have been given in Jesus Christ. You people are such a joy to know, and I'm so glad God brought you into my life. You all are such a blessing to me.

Marilyn R.

May God bless your radio station!

Lori A.

Thank you for all you do to brighten our days and strengthen our faith!!

Deborah V.

Thank you Radio Shine! I love the music, Janet Parshall, and John MacArthur. May God continue to bless you as you reach others.

Pam

What's amazing about The Lord is that He can speak to you through whatever He wants, and I would say especially through the Christian music. Kerrie Robert's song "No Matter What" is a great example of a song that God speaks to me through. No matter what in life I'm going through, it's like He's telling me to never give up the faith and to let Him take care of all my needs. No matter what. God speaks to me through so many ways, and I'm so grateful for it.

Danielle F.

God speaks through radio shine all the time to me.

Carman F.

I have to admit, I was having one of those moments where I question God about why all the bad things have to happen - and why they always seem to happen to us?!? Then a song came on that talked about blessings coming through raindrops, and healing through tears. A great reminder just when I needed it the most! Later that night my husband commented something about how much we need rain. I know he was talking about our parched acreage, but it reminded me again of that song and how much we need the cleansing even though it can be hard to walk through. I just smiled at him and said, "Yes, we do!"

Anna M.

Every day I hear SOMETHING that speaks to me. The music is uplifting, I love listening to Dave (his personality truly makes every morning so much more enjoyable) and the preaching/teaching at night is how I love to end my day. No matter the situation, big or small, Radio Shine uses God's word to speak to my heart in creative ways (other than sitting and reading the Word for myself). We can't read our Bibles every minute of every day so that's where Radio Shine fills in for me and my household :)

Angela C.

I love this station. I listen to it everyday on my long commutes to and from work
