1 Corinthians 13: Christmas Style

1 Corinthians 13: Christmas Style

Carrie Parsons 89.5 KVNE Mornings 1 Corinthians 13: Christmas Style Audio If I decorate my house perfectly with lovely plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights, and shiny glass balls, but do not show love to my family – I’m just another decorator. If I slave away in the kitchen, baking dozens of Christmas cookies, preparing […]

Beautiful Destruction

Mike Harper 89.5 KVNE Mornings A gorgeous Crepe Myrtle adorns our front yard. Set at the middle of our house, it makes a handsome centerpiece for maximum curb appeal.

Nikki Martinez 89.5 KVNE Middays Okay, I’m not going to list out all of the Christmas songs we’re playing this year (because if my math is correct, we have around 350 songs in rotation this year – whew)! BUT, there are always a few new ones we add each year, some familiar tunes (with a […]

Don’t Say ‘I’ll Pray for You’

Don’t Say ‘I’ll Pray for You’

Mike Harper 89.5 KVNE Mornings I’m only half kidding. Praying is good. We all need it. We all need to do it. And it’s good to offer it to others. But be careful. It can be an easy cliché. A throw away, a meaningless phrase, a form of Christianese with about as much sincerity as […]

Look! Up in the Sky!

Mike Harper 89.5 KVNE Mornings It’s a bird — it’s a plane — it’s SUPERMAN! Yes, it’s Superman. Strange visitor from another planet with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman!

What are You Expecting?

What are You Expecting?

Susan O’Donnell 89.5 KVNE Evenings The world was a silent place, waiting for a word from God who had been silent for 400 years. They needed a King, a warrior to fight their enemies for them and to sit on an earthly throne that would make them rulers themselves of the land, life and people […]

Squeeze the Hope

Squeeze the Hope

Mike Harper 89.5 KVNE Mornings If we know Christ, we “know” He’s our hope. But it’s easy to only own that hope in theory, but forget about it in application. Real life. The spiritual battlefield. Those opportunities to “practice.” It seems everything I read and hear lately points me to a problem I’ve struggled with […]

The Beauty of Butterflies

The Beauty of Butterflies

Susan O’Donnell 89.5 KVNE Evenings Outside my house in Chandler is a beautiful purple butterfly plant. I planted it this past spring, it’s been in bloom for months and the other day one of the prettiest butterflies came to visit it. As I watched it sip the flowers I remember the quote from Walt Disney, […]

Remembering Christmas

Susan O’Donnell 89.5 KVNE Evenings Do you remember what you got for Christmas when you were 10 years old? I’ll be honest enough to tell you that I can’t.

Why Play Christmas Music?

Why Play Christmas Music?

Susan O’Donnell 89.5 KVNE Evenings Why is KVNE “YOUR CHRISTMAS STATION” every year? KVNE plays what we call an A/C format of Christian music, but at Christmas we change to all Christmas music. Traditional and classics like Jingle bells and Silver bells, Rockin’ around the Christmas tree or taking a Sleigh Ride mixed with Silent […]
