LUTHERAN MEDIA
Our God has been so wild lately; He dosn't seem to listen, He dosn't obey my commands, and we can't even bribe Him with treats... He's gotten so out of hand He may have to be put down. God is not the problem here, the problem is the people who want to be the leader of the pack. We re-introduce God, we re-train people. You'll get this by listening to the God Whisperers.
Pirate Christian Radio - The Truth Will Set You Free
Pirate Christian Radio is an online radio station that is free from the scurvy plagues of pop-psychology, goofy fads, self-help, pietism, purpose-drivenism, the prosperity heresy, contemplative mysticism, seeker-sensitivism, liberalism, relevantism, Emergent nonsense, and the sissy girly Oprah-fied religiosity that is being passed off as "Biblical Christianity".. This station proclaims "Christ crucified for our sins" and exalts and defends THE historic Christian faith. If you're looking for "Biblical Principles" that will improve your financial situation, help you raise happier children or have a more fulfilling sex life then you're NOT going to like Pirate Christian Radio. But, if you are looking for Christian programming that is truly Christ Centered and proclaims the good news of Christ's death and resurrection for your sins, then you will find Pirate Christian Radio to be a refreshing stream of living water that quenches the thirst of your soul
