Dear Mars Hill Staff,I have been a listener for about 16 years. It has gotten me through many challenging times through the ups and downs of life. I have enjoyed the variety of the music and the many songs which have ministered to me in my time of need. I have also been encouraged in listening to the various ministers and ministries contributing to your wonderful station. Thank you and God Bless you. ![]() Date of Posting: 01 April 2013 Posted By: Colleen |
I've been a listener of Mars Hill Network since 1992. I love the mix of world class teachers and worship music with local pastors, artists, news, and Christ centered organizations. I love the entire cast of announcers 24/7. For me having the network on air 24/7 has been a lifeline keeping me centered and steady in the stream of life that we must navigate on our journey toward eternity - thank you for being you !! Thank you to Wayne Taylor for your vision and committment to our area and making upstate New York truly a place worth living - and listening !!![]() Date of Posting: 28 March 2013 Posted By: Jean |
It is impossible for me to pick just one program or ministry that is my favorite. After 37 years of listening to Mars Hill, I see your ministry as a catalyst for getting myself and my family through many difficult times in our lives. Children's programming became a regular part of our parenting as we raised our two boys, who continue to be strong in the Lord and have their own ministries now. My call to ministry was definitely impacted by programming and events sponsored by Mars Hill. We enjoyed many a concert that you sponsored through the years. My wife and I woke up every morning for 35 years listening to your programs and our car radios seldom were tuned to any other station. Since my wife went home to be with the Lord, your evening programs have become my night sounds. Thank you for your commitment to Our Lord's ministry.![]() Date of Posting: 16 March 2013 Posted By: Pastor |
My husband and I are missionaries living in Europe. I started listening to Mars Hill because my son, Philip, works there. It makes my heart happy to know that while we are reaching people for Jesus on a foreign field that you are doing it in America. Sometimes I feel so far away, but when I listen to you it makes me feel back home again. Thank you for the connection through your web page and your app.![]() Date of Posting: 15 March 2013 Posted By: Karen |
Two years ago, I was going through a very difficult period in my life. I was not sure if I wanted to stay in my marriage and had major financial issues. My beautician is a Christian and when visiting her for my appointments she would have your radio station on in her salon. She would comfort me with her advice, but after leaving her, I would listen to your station continuously. The messages that were presented about marriage from different speakers, has kept me in my marriage and has taught me how to love my husband. My finances are not were I would like them to be; however, again programs I have listened to have given me the faith and encouragement to give everything over to our Father God. I have since relocated to California, but have not left your station behind. I listen everyday all day via streaming on the internet. Thank you for your inspiration through all the programs on your network. All have been truly a BLESSING. Debora ![]() Date of Posting: 12 March 2013 Posted By: Debora |
I have the radio playing most of the day in the kitchen, so throughout the day I hear bits and pieces of your programming. This past February I had a still born little girl Hannah Grace. I had lots of people around me the first week and a few around the second week afterwards but the radio is still there with me. I am thankful for Mars Hill because the songs and messages that played and still play in my kitchen keep me focused on a God that is in control of all my circumstances and He is there to comfort me through this difficult time. When I am feeling sorry for myself I hear something on the radio that gets me back on track and it helps me keep moving. Thank you for keeping spiritual songs and God centered preaching on your radio, unlike other "Christian" stations.![]() Date of Posting: 06 March 2013 Posted By: Rebekah |
I have listened to Mars Hill Radio Station for more than 22 years and it has always been a blessing. Often when I hear a song that ministers to me, I quickly write it down, look up the lyrics and the related scripture verses. I've even called the station a time or two to get the title of a song. God has used this as a vehicle to teach me His Truths and help me to reflect on them through the gift of music. The Bible teachings presented are solid and I especially enjoy Alistair Begg's program, Truth for Life.Several weeks ago, I needed an MRI medical test and to my dismay, the noise of the equipment was very loud and intimidating. The nurse asked me what kind of music I liked to listen to and when I said "Christian", she asked the numbers of the radio station. Within minutes, she placed headphones over my ears with MHN playing sweet Christian music. For the next 40 minutes, my heart was stilled as I felt God's presence through the music and Biblical teachings broadcast on your radio station. Thank you and may God continue to use and bless your ministry. ![]() Date of Posting: 04 March 2013 Posted By: Judy |
In a culture that seems enamored with constant noise, I find The Mars Hill programing to be a sober and quieting voice amidst a good bit of chaos. Thank you for your service. I can not count the times a song, scripture reading or encouraging word has given me strength and hope for another day. Thank you also for the opportunity to win tickets to the Andrew Peterson/Jason Grey concert. I took 4 of my children and we had a great time. The only moment that broke my heart (and rightly so) was when we left to go home and as we walked through the foyer the table to purchase CD's was more than crowded while 3 feet away the table to support a child was devoid of interest. It made me think about what my christian priorities really are and should be. Thank you again, Dianne ![]() Date of Posting: 26 February 2013 Posted By: Dianne |
I am thankful for the Mars Hill Network. I listen every day on my way to work and on my way home from work. I listen when I am at home or in the car and sometimes at work. I love all of the programs and there are too many to choose just one as my favorite. I am thankful for all the listeners who support this radio ministry. The positivity is amazing ... just like God. No matter what I may be experiencing in my life, when I turn on MHN I am lifted to God and feel comforted by the music, words of encouragement, stories of others, ministries, etc. Thank you Mars Hill Network. I only listen to MHN. It's all I need. Thank God. ![]() Date of Posting: 23 February 2013 Posted By: Laura |
I grew up in a Baptist home. My father was in Child Evangelism Fellowship and my mother was a Christian mom at home. I woke up every morning to the sound of WMHR on the radio for all of my childhood. My mother singing along with the songs while making our lunch for the day. I couldn't tell you what happened, but I decided my new friends were more important than everything I was taught. So off I went. Before I turned eighteen years old I had grown my hair long, put in an earring, started smoking, quit school. Everything I could think of against what my parents wanted. Then moved to N.M. where I had a grandmother and cousin living. The idea was my cousin could move on with his life and I would take his place taking care of grandma. Well that never happened. As soon as I landed in the new world, Harry took on a new persona. All the Bible study in youth groups, all the church services, all the youth camps, all the Bible memory from my mother, children's bible hour every saturday on the radio, were as if they never existed. I can only say I believe I am not in prison or addicted to something because of the continuous prayers from my parents. They must have said my name every day in prayer. I fought the devil one day to get to church. There were many excuses that plagued me for years not to go to church. My life was falling apart and I was tired. One morning I decided. I went out to the car I didn't think would make it the whole trip and off I went. I turned the radio off and tried to think of a song to sing that I had learned in the many years of church. NOTHING!!!!! I couldn't believe it. I started to cry. How far had I run that I couldn't think of one song. Then my car started to skip and I yelled out loud at satan that if the car breaks down, I am leaving it on the side of the road and hitch hiking, and I meant it. I finally remembered "Jesus loves me, this I know". A children's song. I was embarrassed to sing it but it was all I had so I did. Out loud all the way to the church I planned to go to that morning. When I pulled into the parking lot, I almost ran in. Right past the greeter and found a spot on a bench and sat down. I couldn't tell you anything the preacher said that day. I was just glad to be there. When I truly searched for God, truly, I found Him, just as He said, just as I am. Seek and ye shall find. Thank God for my parents and thank God for the people who run WMHR. I now listen to it every chance I get. "I" sing along while getting my lunch ready for the day and then all the way to work. Thank God I was told as a child about Jesus.The urge to tell others is my life's focus now.![]() Date of Posting: 23 February 2013 Posted By: Harry |
