My mom passed away 4 years ago today. And you just played ‘Hallelujah Even Here’ by Lydia Laird – which was the song I kept hearing during some very rough days (when I took care of my mom). Today it literally gave me chills in a good way. During those dark days the part of the song that says something about “nothing left to give is the sweetest offering” – at times I could only offer my tears and prayers to God. He took care of my mom (she had a deep peace and love for Jesus) and our entire family. Life 102.5 is a blessing indeed and certainly is uplifting. Thank you!

If you have kids who play summer sports, you know what it’s like running them to practices and games, spending money on uniforms and equipment, and maybe even witnessing other parents and coaches losing their cool on the sidelines. Tyler Turner of Athletes in Action Wisconsin talks about how parents can help instill godly values in their children – on and off the field.
