It helps us remember that what makes something holy and complete is not the outside, but what Jesus does on the inside. We are all broken people, but God has made us alive through Christ. “The only way we’ll last forever is broken together!” Listen to the audio clip > SONG LYRICS > LEARN MORE ABOUT CASTING CROWNS “Love your station.

DEAR FRIENDS, Remember the phrase that says “Preach the Gospel at all times, and use words if necessary?” I love the heart behind it. People in our culture are often moved more by what you do than what you say. K-LOVE’s Share The Love is all about getting out and doing, putting our faith into action. The vision is to be the hands and feet of Jesus in our community — to come together in a meaningful way to show the love of Christ by what we do. Soon, you’ll hear more about Share the Love and learn how you can get involved. We hope you will! Together we will continue to share Jesus with everyone around us. And OK, we might use a few words as well. God’s speed and God’s best to you! Blessings, David Pierce Chief Creative Officer CH R IST M AS FE ST A downpour of rain did not stop the Eighth Annual Christmas Fest event in Nassau County, New York, an event that reaches one of the least churched counties in the United States. Beacon Hill Church is one of the few biblically based churches in that area. An early supporter of K-LOVE in the region, Beacon Hill promoted 96.7 FM in their weekly church bulletins for almost a year when the local station first came on the air. This began a partnership between K-LOVE and the church to reach out to their local community. The goal of Christmas Fest is to provide a safe environment and bring hope to the local neighborhood. The event included a musical performance, ornament making, raffles, games and plenty of food. Despite the rain, 600 people still attended, 50% of which were not from the local church, and had never heard of K-LOVE. What an amazing outreach opportunity! CRUISE 2 0 1 5 A M A Z I N G things happened on this year ’s K-LOVE cruise. The 12th Annual event brought together K-LOVE listeners, staff, and several top Christian recording artists for a transformative five days at sea. EXTRAORDINARY MOMENTS AT SEA K-LOVE listeners not only were able to hear their favorite music by the likes of Casting Crowns, Newsboys and Chris August, but they also connected with the artists on board, met other listeners from around the world, and hung out with the staff and personalities that make K-LOVE a reality. What makes the K-LOVE cruise extraordinary is the opportunity for all of us to come together as a community, to encourage one another, and to see lives changed by the grace of God right before our eyes. For two women in particular, this year’s cruise was truly life altering ...

They require us to have an attitude of awe, respect, and faith not only in one another, but in God as well. How can we draw closer to the one’s we love? Here are 3 tips from myKLOVE’s Christian authors: TO GET MORE GREAT ADVICE ON LOVE AND LIFE: DOWNLOAD APP 1 SHARE YOUR HEART “Our personalities may be an asset or a liability to communication, but they never render us bankrupt. Either I choose to share my heart, or I choose to keep the door closed. I cannot blame my personality, my mate’s response, or anything else.” ~ Gary Chapman 2 WATCH YOUR FOCUS “You go where you focus. In life, if you focus on your problems, you will be filled with anxiety. But if you focus on what brings true happiness, you will be able to enjoy this amazing journey.” ~ Arlene Pellicane 3 TRUST GOD TO MEET YOUR NEEDS “It can be scary to commit to meeting your spouse’s needs regardless of whether you expect to get your own needs met. But a powerful paradox can be hiding in that exchange. In fact, trusting God instead of another to meet your needs might be the most enduring security-producing choice you ever make.” ~ Shaunti Feldhahn Remember as a kid when your friend would say, “I dare you” then your other friend would follow with, “I double dare you?” We all know that taking a challenge could yield a great reward. As a kid, that could have been the bragging rights for the rest of the school day. At the start of 2015, K-LOVE challenged us to listen to nothing but Christian music for 30 days. Some have seen and many have heard the positive impact of this challenge. But what happens when you’re presented with taking this challenge to another level? On myKLOVE, we said, “I double dare you.” While listening to Christian music for 30 days, we challenged our community to do a little extra each week, such as invite somebody you know to listen along. A high school student took this extra challenge and listened to Christian music with his youth pastor. We encouraged members to share songs with friends and family, which prompted a mom to send lyrics to her daughter who had drifted away form the Lord. The greater the challenge, the greater the reward! How fun to see all the Kingdom rewards through K-LOVE radio and the myKLOVE community! Download myKLOVE and experience the reward!

Have you ever been so excited about something that you wanted to shout it from the rooftops? Well, that’s exactly what Jack Stout of Muskogee, Oklahoma did. Only he went one step further and put up a digital billboard featuring K-LOVE and the local station so that those on the road could “Drive Encouraged.” Jack has been listening to K-LOVE for ten years and is so enthusiastic about who we are and what we do that he decided to go to extreme lengths to tell his community about us! “When I came across K-LOVE, I immediately knew this was the music I had been searching for,” Jack said. “I knew I had to put an ad on the billboard to tell Muskogee about K-LOVE.” This is just one more example of God using K-LOVE to speak into the hearts of its listeners. Through that single act, we hope and pray that even more lives will be reached! If you or someone you know has gone to great lengths to spread the word about K-LOVE to others, we would love to hear about it! Share your story and pictures at [email protected].

I have listened to K-LOVE every day since November 2014. I just recently moved to Jacksonville after a few downfalls that pushed me so far down, I didn’t see an end to my worries. I kept my radio off for a long time, but in November, I turned it on, and you guys were playing. I cry with people who call in, I laugh, I sing to all the songs, and most of all, I praise my Savior. Every day He blesses me, and K-LOVE reminds me of that every time I get in my car (every day). I can’t thank y’all enough. ~ Samantha At a recent event in Indianapolis, a lady came in and asked for K-LOVE. She shared with Lindsay Crane, Lead Promotions Representative, how she took the 30 Day Challenge and hasn’t switched her radio station since. Lindsay chatted with her and quickly learned that she wasn’t there for the event — she just heard that K-LOVE would be at the church that day, and wanted to stop by just to tell us “good job!” The woman told how that very morning she visited her deceased mother in the cemetery and that K-LOVE helped her make it through. Needless to say, after sharing her experience with the station, both she and Lindsay had tears in their eyes! 3 A M A Z I N G E M A I L S JOIN THE CLUB!
