This past Tuesday Joshua and I had an exciting opportunity present itself. Mrs. Gomez, a staff member of the Indianapolis Training Center runs an hour long radio program once a Ready to broadcast!week. She was going to be on a trip and so requested for some substitutes. Now the interesting dynamic about this radio program is that it is targeted towards Hispanic listeners. Her son, however, was going to act as translator and therefore, all she needed was willing participants.

The participants ended up being Robert and Michael Staddon, Nate Paine, and Joshua & I. The topic for Ernesto did a fantastic job translating!the radio show was how to develop successful families through honoring parents and building relationship with siblings. Speaking for myself, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I had prepared something to share but was slightly nervous about the whole process. Praise the Lord, he doesn’t need able vessels but just available vessels. Not persons who are confident in themselves but rather those that lack, make mistakes, but all the while depend on Christ for fulfillment in all things.

The radio show started with a couple minutes of melodious music and then Ernesto Gomez opened the show…

Joshua talking 'Live' on WYSWHe turned to us and began with questions: How old are you? Are you bored with life? How do you and your family face challenges in life? He had given us the questions before hand, so that we knew which order they came in even though they were asked of us in Spanish :-) .

Nate shared about some Family experiences in his past which God used to teach him patience and love for his siblings.

Robert and Michael also shared on similar levels but then Michael delved into how God changed his perspective with his siblings relationships. At first they were his enemies but God changed his heart and therefore developed in him a true love for his siblings to the point where they were his best friends.

JPosing for a quick picture before going Liveoshua and I presented the Five Love Languages: Encouraging words, Physical touch, Act of service, Quality time, and Gift giving.

It was truly encouraging to be ambassadors for Christ on the radio. The radio is so full of evil and wickedness; I praise the Lord we were able to play a part in combating it. This incredible opportunity has motivated me to continue playing a dynamic role in combating against the evil in our culture.
