Radio days...

I've had a part time job at our local radio station for about 5 months now.  I have an education background in broadcasting so this is not something completely new to me.

I LOVE coming to the station to work weather it be sports or a remote broadcast for one of our three stations.

I mostly produce sports and it's not too bad. This week I'm filling in on the air for our sports caster while he is on vacation. I get to write my sportscast as "report" the sports 4 times each morning. It's pretty cool because yesterday I got to help our morning show host with the 2nd half of his show after I was finished with my sports.

My daughter is 6 and gets to come to the station with me anytime I work during the day. She is a good girl and everyone loves her! LOL She does talk a lot so I have to remind her that this is a place of business and the people here are working so she needs to stay either with me or in my office while I'm on the air and not bug people! :D

She does pretty good sometimes. hee hee.


Well I've finished writing my sports cast for today and am preparing to go live. So I guess I need to get to the studio.

Our 3 stations all link together.. so if you ever want to listen live just go to... KLBC or KBBC  or KSEO 


Have a Blessed Day!

horrible blogger

I have been a horrible blogger!  I have allowed life to get in the way of thing I really wanted to do.

Back in August I became a Certified Travel Agent! I LOVE it! However, it seems to have taken over my life. I seem to eat sleep and dream travel.

Even homeschool has taken a back seat to building my travel business. I am working very part time at at a local radio station which I do love and I want to be doing that a little more  but home school is so much more important that I need to find balance between travel business and homeshcool .

So Starting today we are getting back to time management and doing school work and house work during the day and working on travel in the evening. It has to be this way or I will have no balance.

My husband is feeling like he needs to be working toward being a pastor and that means I as his helpmeet need to be working toward being a pastors wife. I need to focus on being a better home maker and I need to work toward loving people unconditionally. I know God will give me what I need to serve Him and give Him the glory.

I am so very proud of him and I want to show him how much I love and support him!

So today my prayer is that God will give us grace and mercy and show us the path we need to take to be in His will.

Thank you for taking the time to read. I would love your feedback!

Trusting God for Guidance

It is never easy to put 100% trust in anyone. Shouldn't we be able to trust God with everything? I mean He did create us! He gives us life and directs our steps.
However as the flawed humans we are it is sometimes hard to learn to trust and all knowing,all seeing God who loves us in spite of ourselves!

That's RIGHT! No matter what decisions we make and no matter how ridiculous those choices are God loves us anyway!
Praise the Lord for that!!! As we seek guidance in our lives for the next phase, we often forget that God already has a plan. All we have to do is trust him to direct our steps to His Perfect will!

Living my life for Jesus

I am so excited that my hubby and I Are both now officially ordained ministers! We are working to follow God's call on our lives! I am actually working on a bible study. I am praying about this and ask God to annoint me to spread his word!

I have always felt called into ministry and since I was a child wanted to be a pastor/minister like my grandfather. I have always been told I couldn't be because I am a woman! I kept praying and praying and now I know that I can and will fulfill God's call on my life!

I KNOW God has a plan for us and I'm excited to find out what it is!

Lifestyle changes for Good

Last Friday I was diagnosed with diabetes! This has really been a blow to me because I have been working on making changes to they way I eat and live.
I was not exercising at all and I have started trying to walk everyday!
I am going to see what it will take for is to get a gym membership so we can workout no matter the weather!
I'm monitoring my blood sugar levels and watching my carb intake!

This is probably the hardest thing I've had to do because I love food! However if in want to be around for my little girl I HAVE to make the necessary changes and pray that God will lead me every step of the way!

Sunday evening at home

We love watching movies snuggled up on the couch. So tonight we are doing just that.
I really should be tidying up the house a bit before bed but i can work on that tomorrow.

I am finally on the mend but would love it if we could be packing to move.

What do you do on sunday night if there is no church or you don't attend?

Family Bonding Time...and Good News!!!

We have spent the better part of two days watching movies as a family. I love that we have been able to spend all this quality time together. We watched a movie Hubby and I have been wanting to see since November. Mockingjay Part 1, the 3rd installment in the Hunger Games series. We have been keeping up with all of them as we did with the Twilight Saga. I just need the last two of those to complete my DVD Collection. Now as for the Hunger Games I have not purchased any of them. We will eventually....We also watched Gardians of the Galaxy, wich was pretty good and Dracula Undone which i really enjoyed. It portrayed a more human and probable version of the story and how it could be possible for the ledgends to be passed on.

So today we came to the library to watch Big Hero 6 because Niki was wanting to see it. We all enjoyed it and she has asked to buy it, so we will. It is a great family film and something that we could watch over again.

We are a family who enjoys movies, cinema, films, whatever  you want to call them. We love talking about them and enjoy the time we get to spend together as a family watching them.

I pray that there are many, many families that take time to spend time together. I hope to pass a love of film and cinema along to my daughter, as well as music. My husband and I both love many different generas of music and she is starting develop her own taste in music and that is fun to experience!

We learned yesterday that we are officially Great Aunt and Uncle! Our niece gave birth to her daughter Piper Isabelle Corigliano at 2:38pm she weighed 7lbs 12oz and 20in long.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PIPER!


Well I've got to go get prepared for Sunday School tomorrow. We are starting a new unit the life of Christ.

May God Bless You and Keep You!

Stepping Out In Faith!

Recently my husband and I have been praying about a ministry position that has been brought to our attention. We will be able to live at the lake year round and it will take a lot of hard work but I believe we can do this!

I am really excited to get a chance to serve God in any capacity He will allow us to. I always felt called to be a missionary and I never followed God like I should have. Maybe this will be that chance I've always needed to serve Him in a greater capacity.

I pray this will be a life changing opportunity for our family and give my darling husband the chance to serve God he needs and deserves. My husband has always wanted to serve in a more hands on way and I am praying God will guide us and give us this chance to be apart of the Resort Ministry!

We will still be able to homeschool and we will be able to work out there full time as chaplains.



We covet your prayers fellow believers!


From our Clan to yours!

Love One Another

When we can't find love in our hearts for those around us it is not THEIR fault.

Jesus Christ told us himself that the greatest commandment was to "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind." And then to "Love your neighbor as yourself"

Well let me ask you..Do you gossip about yourself?
Do you refuse to feed yourself?
Do you allow yourself to be out in the cold without a coat or sleep with no blanket?
The answers to these questions is most likely a resounding NO!

So then your next thought should be then why would I dare to do any of that to anyone else?!

When we are doing the for one the second one will come naturally if you are truly Loving God.

Praying For Our Churches

Sometimes when we are striving to be obedient and living according to what we know is right, that is when satan attacks us the most.

Recently my family has been working hard to serve our Lord and do His work; however satan has been hitting us from all sides. He has dealt financial blows, emotional struggles, and physical illness.

Our church has even come under attack from the enemy! We've got him attacking families in our church left and right, causing dissention and strife. We are going to have to pray against him hard and heavy if we want to win this battle.

The Word says in Romans 8:38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow--not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love.


We will have to stand against the wiles of the devil, like it says in Ephesians 6:10-17

 10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. 11Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. 14Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, and HAVING PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, 15and having shod YOUR FEET WITH THE PREPARATION OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE; 16in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.


Something I have learned over the years about church is that there are always going to be people in every church that will try to destroy it. Satan uses people to stir up trouble, they spread gossip and they make things hard for others.

I want to teach my Sunday School Class how to pray! I want to guide these amazing little people into a passion for Christ that never fades! As part of my ministry  I pray that they will all Learn that God's gift of Salvation is something relevant and meaningful in their lives and that they will be Soul winners for Christ!

I want to challenge you to pray for your church. Pray for the Body of Christ in general that we will all be emboldened to share the word of God with others in such a way that we are saying God Is NOT Dead, he is surely alive!!

May God Bless you and keep you!

Happy New Year!

2014 is gone and 2015 has begun. As I look back a lot of changes happened in 2014. We moved from Tulsa, Ok. (in Northeastern OK) to Durant, Ok (in Southeastern,OK). I grew up just 20 some miles from here and lived here about 20 years ago. Things have changed and there are new things here that were not when I was growing up but it is still small town USA. I had really enjoyed the anonymity of the city. Not everyone knew someone in my family. I have a LOT of family in this area and Hubby has some in North Texas.
However Moving here has created less stress in my home. My husband is home to spend time with our daughter and he is less stressed so that makes life easier for sure.

We are looking into buying a home and trading in our van for a newer car. (would be such a blessing!!!) We are praying God will bless us with both of these this year!

I pray many blessings on each and every family that reads our blog. I have not been blogging as much as I would like and I hope that will get to change this year and as we get settled into a home of our own.

Blessings and love to you all,
The Graham Clan
