Gramazin Radio Has Begun!
 

Wednesday April 17, 2024

I enjoyed my first visit to WEZE/WROL studios in Quincy, MA. Basil Yarde gave me a tour of the facility and introduced me to staff members. We chatted a little bit about Gramazin and Gramazin Radio. "Gramazin Radio" is the official term for Gramazin having a regularly scheduled show on a radio station.

Basil then interviewed me for two six-minute interviews to run on the station. We also recorded a 30-second spot. We concluded my visit by talking about a contract in the conference room. I agreed to the Gramazin Broadcast, the station's name for my ongoing appearance at 6:55 am on WEZE 590 AM each weekday. The show will also run once in the evening and a third time on WROL.

After stepping out the day before in faith to walk on the water, metaphorically speaking, and to sign a contract, I had buyers regret and sank. "Yikes, what on earth have I got myself into?" However, I got down on my knees and prayed. My heart soon told me that the Holy Spirit was guiding my steps and I am not to be afraid. Ever since, I've had a joy in my heart about the opportunity God has given me to create and host radio shows and to share the gospel with tens of thousands of people.

Friday April 19 through Sunday April 21, 2024

I recorded five 12-minute talks that are airing this week on WEZE and WROL. Each episode can be heard at 6:15 pm. 

1. Monday (4/22) - my testimony
2. Tuesday (4/23) - the core message of every testimony
3. Wednesday (4/24) - the need for testimonies on church websites
4. Thursday (4/25) - testimonies and spiritual revival
5. Friday (4/26) - An introduction to Gramazin

The idea came to me of the Gramazin New England Testimony Challenge. Can I interview one believer in every Bible-believing church in New England and have them share their testimony in 3-to-4 minutes? WEZE radio loves the idea and projects that the show will generate a lot of interest in New England. It was suggested that this show might duplicate across the country since it's never been done before.  

I also came up with a new name for Gramazin Broadcast, the Gramazin Testimony Report. Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays will be the Gramazin New England Testimony Challenge. Tuesdays will be open for me to do whatever I feel led to do, including interviews or messages. West Hunter Thursdays will promote our Gramazin Guide YouTube channel as we share one of our 1930s-styled broadcasts.

Monday April 22, 2024

2:00 PM - I interviewed Nina Walters from First Presbyterian Church North Shore. She will be the very first testimony shared on Gramazin New England Testimony Challenge and her interview will be heard on Friday May 3, 2024.

6:15 PM - I heard myself on the radio for the first time in my life. It was not as exciting as you might think it could be. The goal is not to hear my voice on the radio. The goal is for people to respond to my calls to join us on Gramazin and begin a movement that moves throughout the nation. Besides, I had produced what I was hearing and had already heard it.

Tuesday April 23, 2024

2:00 PM - I interviewed Jon Evans of First Presbyterian Church North Shore. He spoke from a church leader's perspective about the importance of testimonies published on church websites. We had some laughs with bloopers and I've got some editing to do. Jon sent me a text about an hour later sharing how timely our discussion was as he was able to use it in ministry with someone in need.
