Power FM has been on the air since 1999. It has always been our mission to glorify Jesus by leading believers into a closer walk with Him and drawing unbelievers into a relationship with Him.
We have worked very hard to let as many people know about the station as possible; going to concerts, cruising in the power-mobile, passing out flyers, but now the Lord has provided a new tool. THE POWER FM BILLBOARDS! That's right, be looking for a billboard near you. Here are some pictures of the first of 9 boards.
Pray with us that God will use these to draw new listeners to the station and turn hearts to Him.
More Power To ya!

Jade, Andi & Chris are pretty excited about the billboard.
Eddie is VERRRRY excited about it.
Yep, that's us!
For our May Get-Together we went to the movies! We rented out a theater at The Studio Movie Grill in Lewisville to watch The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Everyone at the station was so excited about this get-together and movie...and it was great that so many of our listeners and friends were excited as well!
I saw the first Chronicles of Narnia film (The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe) the day before Preston was born. I was having contractions all through the film, but I sure wasn't going to miss it! So, needless to say, I'm definitely interested in this series. I didn't read the books until relatively recently (probably 2003 or so), because my husband insisted I would love them - he was a big fan! I read them, and I DID love them. Even more recently I read the first two parts to Preston at bed-time (it would only take a few paragraphs and he'd be out like a light - it took a while to get through them), having just finished up Prince Caspian last month. So the story was definitely still fresh on my mind going into this movie on Saturday.
Don't worry, if you haven't seen the film yet, I'm not going to really spoil anything for you here. I liked the movie, but I do have to say it was quite different from the book. It seemed to me huge chunks of the story were skipped or rushed through, to make way for the battle scenes. The fighting was a very small part of the book, actually...though watching the movie you'd think it was the main focus of the entire story-line. The battle was important, but there was a lot to the story-telling that we missed out on as well. I liked that the humor of certain situations were left in-tact, as C.S. Lewis was quite funny. And Reepicheep was pretty much as I pictured him, brave and valiant...don't you dare just call him a mouse!
All in all, I'd say that the movie and the Get-Together both exceeded my expectations. Thanks to everyone who came out and spent their Saturday afternoon with us, enjoying a fine film and some great lunch! See you guys at next month's Get-Together...tentatively planned for June 16th with Ever Stays Red in concert (more details to be announced).
Keep rockin' for Christ!
Jade =)
Come join us THIS Saturday, May 17th at NOON!
Another Share-a-thon has come and gone and Power FM thanks all who gave financially and of their time. It is so much fun to be part of a community, as you can see in the pictures. Over the years we have made some wonderful friendships with people who volunteer and we continue to do so. We can only have so many volunteers at a time though, so please check the web-site and be sure to join us for one of the Power FM monthly outings. Oh, but back to share-a-thon! A special thanks to Aric from Cici's in Greenville (go have some pizza and thank them for blessing Power FM), Chick-fil-a at LBJ and McArthur (please mention us there too, I love their chicken), and one of our favorite club 3000 members Alyson Shirley and her trusty companion, uh husband Zach for furnishing dinner on Thursday night, and to our new friend Trenton who bombarded us with donuts. In addition to those already in club3000 we raised over 100,000 in additional money. That will be very helpful in keeping us the Christian rock station.
God bless each and every one of you, and more power to you.
Eddie
