Turkeys & Flashback

We are almost finished with the week...almost.  Still have the final two shows in the J93.3 Fall Concert Series.  Brandon Heath, with special guest Britt Nicole, wrap up the series tonight and tomorrow night, then we can call it a week.

We did wrap up the second annual T-Shirts For Turkeys.  First the total:  2,336 turkeys!  That will provide Thanksgiving dinner for thousands who would have gone without your generous participation.

We're also nearing the end of the Morning Show, with me, Jerry Williams.  I'll be on the air in the morning Monday and Tuesday and then I'm taking a couple of extra days off to spend Thanksgiving with family.  Thursday December 1 we become The JOY FM, with a brand new (to ATL) morning show, The Morning Cruise and a brand new afternoon show (name to be revealed soon) with me and Shannon Steele.  It's going to be great and you are going to love Dave, Carmen and Bill in the mornings and Shannon in the afternoons.  And of course Thanksgiving means that the Christmas music on J93.3 will be starting very soon.

This Week's Scripture References
We do prayer time every morning around 5:40 AM, and open it up with a few verses of scripture.  Here are the references from this week:
  • James 1:2-4
  • Hebrews 10:23-25
  • John 15:12-17
  • Romans 12:1-2
  • Matthew 25:37-40
Friday Flashback Video
We did another Flashback Friday on the Morning Show today, playing songs from artists like Whiteheart, Keith Green, Scott Wesley Brown and Bryan Duncan.  Those have always been a lot of fun.  We didn't get to this husband and wife this morning.  Scott and Christine Dente, better known as Out Of The Grey.  Here's the video version of their song "All We Need."

A Final Flashback Tomorrow

It's just a matter of a few more episodes of the Morning Show and then J93.3 becomes The JOY FM with a revamped line up.  The change takes place on December 1, but we do have Thanksgiving in between now and then and I'll be taking some time off to spend with family before the switch.  So tomorrow is my last chance to a morning Flashback Friday.  We'll open up the comments on the J93.3 Face Book page later this afternoon and then the studio phones just after 6:00 AM tomorrow for you to share (and request) your favorite memory songs.

Today is the final day for T-Shirts For Turkeys.  This morning at the Eagles Landing Chick-fil-A in Stockbridge we collected 174 turkeys.  We'll have the grand total tomorrow on the Morning Show and the J93.3 website.
