From the Heart of the Pastor - The Weekly Dailey Show
Pastor Robert Dailey is the host of this weekly program with a very specific message. Through his more than fifty years in the ministry which include his years with the late Rex Humbard, Bob has come to realize that often it is the shepherd himself who needs to be tended to. Often it is the Pastor has no one to talk to or confide in. Weary and discouraged, many good men and women have turned away from the ministry or fallen from the faith when they themselves buckled under the load. Here Pastor Bob ministers to the ministers and reaches out to the outstretched hand. Pastors, be sure to tune in. Parishioners, tell your Pastor about the Weekly Dailey show, From The Heart of the Pastor. It could be the one tool that keeps the faith intact.
Wonderful Words of Life with Mary Huthmacher
Mary came from a large family that worked hard, stuck together. They walked to church every time the doors were opened and gathered around the piano to sing. It was Mary who played those old hymns and she could play any song that anyone requested. In some strange way, Mary was gifted with an uncanny ability to even play songs which she had never heard before! Perhaps that is a bit much, but you’ll agree that she is uniquely gifted. She sings, and plays the piano and will tell you Bible Stories like she was actually there when they happened. Enjoy those Wonderful Words of Life as “Our Aunt Mary” becomes your Aunt Mary too.

50’s Gospel
There is a demographic in America today which will always stand (at least emotionally) to attention when they hear the 50s sound of the music which they grew up with. Today many Artists realize that and as a result they have re-written lyrics which provide a Christian meaning to the songs a generation is always hungry to hear. There just is not an abundance of this style of music, but for what is out there we are working at assembling a library for our listeners. Now in our unusual music program, “50’s Gospel” we provide this unique sound. As a result we also believe that some un-believers who hear the beat will be attracted to listen to the new and wholesome lyrics. Our prayer is that some listeners may come to Christ through the sound of this weekly program we call, “50’s Gospel”
