Good Morning,I listen to you every day, all day.Your Kindness is Contagious story today got me! I live in Pardeeville and actually work with the father of the young girl who was killed in that car accident. He is not here today, but I will share this with him.This was such a tragedy for everyone here at our work place and in our community. Her family has suffered a tragic loss. What that athletic director did, was amazing! There may have been some who grumbled but he did it anyway! I agree with Andi, that truly was a God Moment! We as a state and nation need more of these, especially right now!!God Bless you all for your work!

I never listened to your station. I was driving my wife’s car and flipped on the radio- 102.5 was on- I was listening to a sweet lady talk about Honduras and the children- also the gangs/ cartels “recruiting” children soldiers but also respecting the Lord and His workers- Here is a brief story: The Lord called me to Honduras in 1997. I have walked the streets alone with just a faithful brother who is also my interpreter. Long story short- By Gods immeasurable power He opened doors that no man could open- one of those doors was to the MS13 and Barrio 18 leadership (The gangs and cartels of Central America) Check out CECOT EL Salvador- I have had the privilege to share the message of Christ crucified with the leadership of these organizations- leading 12 “kingpins” to Jesus- and 1000s of soldiers- please find below a picture of Javier before and after- Javier was a powerful leader of MS13 who I met in a miraculous way- He is now Pastor Javier with wife Issabella- Love never fails- there is a reason the gangs respect Jesus- I would love to share my stories with you- Im heading back to Honduras on the 19th and will be meeting with 2 more bosses ready to take the “pass” and serve Christ- please pray for me, thank you- Pursue love above all else!

I was reading Morning with Jesus and was given the challenge for 2025 to chose a word to focus on.I was listening to I Choose The Jesus Way and I came up with the Focus word CHOICE.I choose to be more tolerant, more compassionate, more patient, more understanding.. When things go wrong, as they will, I remember my focus word, take a deep breath and remember I have a choice how I can react.

On August 20, 2015 my mom got in a car accident and left paralyzed from the chest down. It had impacted my life a lot. I started to go into treatment for mental health when I was 15 years old I am 21 years old now I am type 2 diabetic. I found that out when I was 18 years old. I’ve been going through a lot of different group homes but on God‘s timing I found this Amazing Group Home on January 22, 2024 in February 2024 I had found an amazing church. On Sunday May 19, 2024 I had made a huge declaration in my faith to obey the Lord and two accept him, as my personal Lord and Savior. Before I found the Group Home in January, I was losing a lot of hope and my faith through prayer these last couple days I’ve been feeling more connected to God he’s working through my body. He’s working through my soul.

I wanna share this, the good to me by Rhett walker always reminds me that no matter what storms come in life when our best seems to not be enough when it doesn’t go the way we plan, God always makes a way, we don’t have to fear because God is always on our side and all He is and will always be is Good to me!

I’ve been in recovery from alcoholism for over 15 years. It hasn’t been easy at all especially with all of the shame and guilt surrounding my addiction… it haunted me for a very long time. When I was using, God was the furthest thing from my mind and heart, and my world was very dark. Getting sober was the best thing that ever happened to me because it brought me “back to life.” And, whenever I look back on it, I realize how much God was in my life even when I didn’t think he was. I’ve always been taken care of and loved, and everything has always worked out the way He’s planned. Often times I’ve prayed for this or that to happen, but every single time, everything comes out better than I could have ever imagined. I have a good job, a beautiful home, and most recently, I got married (in my 50s) to a wonderful man and my life is filled with love & faith. It’s certainly not something that I could have dreamed of when I was in the darkness of addiction, and now my heart is filled with the love of God.

I woke up with a terrible headache and my hamstring on fire because I pulled a muscle. So I decided to go to dog park because it always helps my mental state. Driving to dog park in stoughton I heard a big boom and thought something hit my truck. My truck looked fine once I got to dog park. On the way home my tire low pressure gauge went on. My tires looked fine when I left the park. I turned onto my street and I could feel the tire go down. My left front tire completely flat. I give all thanks to Jesus. I know that I know he had his hands around my truck. I feel so blessed right now. A front tire doesn’t boom like that at 55 mph without a problem right away. My head feels better, my hamstring is still on fire but I made it all the way home with no problems and GOD did that. Praise the Lord. Have a beautiful day.

I attended the casting crowns concert sat nite in rkfd this was available to me and 7 other members of our families because my sisiter-in-law bought tickets this summer. In aug she was told her cancer would take her to heaven in less than 2 months so she made sure someone would use the tickets she died Oct 2, 🙁 the concert was just amazing- inspiring, worshiping, joyful yet some tears knowintgCathy loved these concerts! But i got to see Dave and Natalie and Mikayla and those terrific singers. I knew almost all the songs because I have 102.5 on my echo in the house and in my car constantly It was my first ever concert like this. I live about 30 min from rkfd so this was convenient and oh so totally great ! Thanks for your station and the people there .Gods blessings on you I do support your station every fund drive you have and I hope you can continue!!

My wife has a history of seizures , she thought she had them under control her doctor. Let her go back driving about six months now ago she had her head on collision now she still having seizures. She’s maxed out on meds and they might be doing brain surgery she is in the middle of recovering from the accident, going to physical therapy and hurt all her doctor appointments . got let go from my job because I had to take care of my wife . Now I just rely on her check to pay bills and now it could be much and she might go back to disability so trying to take care of her and work is very hard . Yes, we could definitely use prayers thanks so much!!

8/25/24 I woke up this gorgeous morning with a particular anticipation because I am being Baptized today. Had my coffee and dog snuggles and then went out to take my pups for a walk at 6am. I always play and sing to Life 102.5 while we are walking, but this morning the world seemed especially bright, peaceful and full of wonder. I sang louder and more praise fully than on most days. At the very end of our walk, across the street from our home, I saw a new little sign hanging on our neighbors pear tree. I had to go look and am SO grateful I did! My little snack from God, the world, and our generous neighbor was THE best pear EVER (I plan to avail myself of more!) It is lovely to see and experience this generosity in our world today 🙏💕🙏
