Weekdays 3-6 pm, Sundays 6-9 am
I love being on Afternoons with you! God had a plan for me. In 1971, in the basement of St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Oshkosh, I began a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and have never regretted it. I got the broadcasting bug in high school and before I knew it, graduated from college with a degree in Radio/TV Film. I grew up listening to The Family. In 1977, I was listening to the radio and thought “it can be better than this!” Well, God had a sense of humor by making my dreams of working in Christian radio a reality when I joined The Family in 1981.
Throughout the years I’ve held every job position and done every on-air shift – including a 13 hour shift one time. Whew! It’s been great to watch God mold and shape the station into what it is today. My wife Gloria & I met at Lake Lundgren Bible Camp when I was a counselor for a week during the summertime. She was working in the kitchen. There’s a lot to the story, but simply put, we got engaged at camp, married at camp and now our grandchildren go to the camp! So grateful for God using LLBC in our lives.
We’ve been married 42 years and it’s gone by way too fast. We’re blessed with 3 grown children, Danielle, Alicia & Zachariah. My life verse is 1st Thessalonians 4:11-12. “Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.” I’ve found the verse is sort of counter cultural. We are so busy these days and don’t really take much time to be quiet and mind our own business. It’s definitely something I work towards each day! Some of my favorite pastimes include fishing, biking and watching the waves at a lake.
