A HEARTWARMING CHRISTMAS LETTER
FROM A LISTENER TO
"HOW IT HAPPENS" ON
FAITHQUEST RADIO



I wanted to let you know at this time of year what a blessing your radio
program has been for over 10 years, and continues to be. This was
especially brought to mind last week when something happened on my
job.

I was called to task about something that I had not done. Later it was
agreed that I was never told to do it and things worked out OK for me.
However, at the time I was feeling very low for not accomplishing the
task set before me.

I turned on KLT to get some encouragement, but wouldn't you know that I
happened to turn into the middle of a very legalistic sermon telling me
that if I didn't shape up and get it right, I was surely going to hell.
I think he used the words, 'God expects', 'God demands', and 'God
requires' all in a 90 second period. My depression soon turned to
despondency and I turned off the radio after about 5 minutes.

A few days later I heard a pastor doing a word study on Matthew 11: 29,
30, 'For my yoke is easy'. He spent the entire 30 minutes telling us
that in the original Greek this verse really didn't mean what it says.
By the time the 30 minutes were up, I was totally exhausted.

And then a third time I heard a quote that I have heard many times in
my life, 'Christianity is NOT for wimps'. Well I guess that leaves me,
and about half of everyone else, OUT. There are days when I couldn't
'fight my way out of a paper sack'. Another quote I have heard all my
life.

It was Friday night when I turned on 'How It Happens' and you gave me
the simple Gospel of Hope that I have come toe expect for over 10 years.
For the first time all week I actually felt like there was Light, Christ
Jesus, at the end of the tunnel. Thank you very much.

Ironically, after what I have written, I am going to admonish you to
'Keep up the good fight' in 2011. There are a lot of us Wimps out there
in Radioland, counting on you.
