Praise Time with Preacher

Praise Time with Preacher

The word "gospel" is derived for the old Anglo-Saxon word meaning “good message” or “good news." Host Preacher believes gospel music is powerful, whether the listener is or is not Christian — that everyone can enjoy listening to gospel because it is uplifting and inspiring, sung with passion and belief from the artist, touching all who hear it in a good and heartfelt way. The aim of Praise Time is to help listeners find what Preacher believes lives in everyone: a good spirit that drives us to be the best we can be.

Live Tuesday 4-5pm
Replays Sunday 9-10am

Sun with Dragon.jpg

Get ready for some eclectic party time music on the next Sonic Rehab! DJJJ has a couple more versions of "Lola's Theme" by the Shapeshifters after playing the orginal version last week, some anime music from Yoshimasa Terui, and even some country for the first time! And of course, plenty more, including a section of music he loved hearing on the radio but seemed to only be played very late at night. Intrigued? Then tune in this Monday from 1-3 p.m. PDT on KDRT 95.7 FM or stream live on kdrt.org.

If you can't listen live (booooooo!) or want to listen again (yaaaaaaay!), you can check it out in the kdrt.org archives for up to 2 weeks after broadcast. d(-_-)b
