Make a Difference - Extreme Version

I give to K-love each month and am blessed that the company I work for matches my gift every month.  I am frustrated that more people don't support this ministry.  3% percent of k-love listeners carry the sweet load of this ministry. I pray that at least 10% will get on board and help this ministry be fully funded by Thursday. God is doing such great things on k-love.  Please get on board to keep k-love strong.  

Thank you Scott and Kelli for all your hard work.  I know how exhausting this must be.  Keep you chin up.  God is faithful.

God bless

K-love is the best radio station ever, but right now I don't have any money to give. I am getting my friends and I to save up a lot for next year's pledge drive.I love K-love, and I'm sure other kids do too!!Thank you for such encouraging songs!!!!!

Hi Scott and Kelli, I am a daily listener to KLOVE.  I LOVE KLOVE!  I have a CHALLENGE for your listeners on this pledge drive:

Give a gift that is attached to the Bible verse that God has promised you, you live by or is your favorite!!  

I gave a one time gift of $42.12 and changed my monthly gift to $42.12.  God's promise to me is Job 42:10-17 and especially verse 12.  I have been a supporter of KLOVE for a while.  God impressed on my heart to change my pledge.  By changing my pledge I will be giving, not to get back, but to remember and claim God's promise to me every month.  I am a single mother of 5 blessings. When times get tough, and they do, I remember God's promise to me!

So why give to KLOVE?  Because you are with me in the car, at home and at work.  I seem to get a word through song every time I need it.  I have felt a "tap" from God as He says... "listen to the next song, it's for you."  There are SO MANY times this has happened!  One of my favorite memories is when I was hurting desperately in my heart.  God told me to call my Dad to come and hold me.  I felt so odd in requesting this from my dad.  We hadn't had a great relationship up to that point but God said HE was going to heal our relationship.  I called my Dad in that moment, he dropped everything he was doing to come and hold his 40 year old daughter.  As he walked in the door KLOVE played, "I'm gonna wrap my arms around my Daddy's neck, and tell him that I LOVE HIM!!"  I bawled like a baby at God's timing and KLOVE'S obedience to His call.  THAT was the beginning of 2 years of reconciliation.  We are SO wonderfully close!  I'm so glad that KLOVE had a part in that!!  THANK YOU!  THANK GOD!

Please be very careful about giving money away to beggars and "down-trodden" people you see on the streets.  Lots of scams out there and I bet even Klove has policies about this.  I am very concerned about Matthew West's new song - "Population Me" and how it advocates giving money to a "homeless widow."  Nice sentiment, but it can be a real scam problem, especially as we head in to the holidays and people feel more generous than usual.  Snopes.com has a lot of recommendations on how NOT to get taken in by con-artists:
