September 2016 To the WRGN listening family,

Nights are cooler, kids are back in school and it’s getting darker sooner...yes, fall is just around the corner. As I ponder what our children face when they go back to school, I am more grateful than ever for parents who have made the commitment to “bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord,” (Ephesians 6:4, ESV). WRGN is committed to supporting you in your goals!

We know parenting is challenging work and kids don’t come Doug & Tim were joined by Jamie and Julie Overholser of ‘Bound Together,’ a ministry to prisoners based on Hebrews 13:3, which says with a manual, so we offer programs based on biblical “Remember the prisoner as if you were bound together with him.” principles to help you. Whether you send your kids to public school, private school, Christian school or homeschool, we offer you news, resources and programs to help you everyday. Programs like Focus on the Family offer practical applications and In The Market with Janet Parshall keeps you up to date with what is happening politically that affects you and your family.

In today’s fast paced world, it can be hard to keep up, and we do our best to help you. WRGN is constantly seeking programs like Plugged In to help you with media choices, or Breakpoint to help you see things from a Christian worldview. We even have the Good News Library to help you dig deeper and provide your family with healthy choices in reading and entertainment.
