Wednesday, December 20: Hosts Chris Bessler and Suzy Prez will explore the “reason for the season” in a talk about the meaning of Christmas with pastors from two local churches, Tim Yetter from Sandpoint Assembly of God and Colin Moody from Cedar Hills Church. The talk will include discussion of the community-wide Christmas Offering, in which their churches and eight others are collaborating to raise money for Freedom House and The Luke Commission. Airtime is 8 a.m on 88.5 KRFY, or click to the live stream right here.
