AUDIENCE RESPONSES..from NLR listeners
What our listeners tell us:
Kramatorsk, Russia: "Hello New Life Radio. It's good that you are here. God's light comes to many homes with you. I'm happy that I can listen to you in our city! Thank God for you and your labor. Keep it up!"
If a family is a cell of society, then NLR is a cell of the Church!

Renata: "I always knew the right way, but I never walked it. This was my choice: SUICIDE or GOD. I was struggling inside. I heard one Christian drama on your radio and made a RIGHT CHOICE!"
"To tell you the truth, I can't live without New Life! The radio is running 24/7, and it off only when I'm out. You are my support!
"I love the Lord and thank you that through you He gave me answers to the most difficult questions. I am alive, not dead as I was before. Thank you for your ministry!"
"We always listen to NLR with pleasure! It gives me and all my colleagues joy at work!"
Hello Dear NLR disc jockeys...It is so good to know that you're on the air! You instruct with your programs, bring comfort with your words, bring joy with good music. Bible verse of the day really supports me, makes me think, and sometimes repent to come closer to God. Your work is to the glory of God indeed!

I always enjoy listening to NLR. Great short spots, great stories you tell, awesome music. Thank God we have you!
I listen to all Christian radio stations and stopped on New Life Radio. For me, its the best radio. On this radio there is a beautiful and alive fellowship, great and helpful announcers, and good music. When I cannot listen to NLR, then I miss you. NLR is my family and the words "you are not alone if you listen to NLR" are true! ARTYOM
Dmitri from Volgodonsk: "You know, I went to a little cafe yesterday for a cup of hot tea. As I was leaving, I saw a homeless person sitting behind one of the tables. He was holding a plastic cup filled with tea and was shivering from the cold. I started thinking what can I possibly do for him. And then I remembered one of the stories that Dasha told on New Life Radio: about one time when she was also in a similar situation--thinking how she could help a person like that, and while she was pondering it, some little girl came up to the person and helped him. So I decided to think less, and do more, and brought him a cup of tea and a good sandwich. Oh how thankful he was, and how wonderful I felt. I wished him God's blessings and we went on with our day! Thank you New Life Radio so much, and thank God. Hallelujah!"
Alex from Zelenokomsk, Russia, is called to share the Gospel to those near death. Alex installed an NLR satellite system in a hospital ward for terminal patients at a local prison, and also did the same at a women's prison colony where 1800 women can hear New Life Radio.
What can you say about NLR? Only good! Since we found you on the Internet, we listen only to your radio. I like the variety of music that is contemporary Christian music. Programs are very interesting, they make you think about your personal relationship with Christ, the need of repentance everyday, about gratitude to God for his sacrifice. Also, lives of other people that you discuss show the way God leads to the truth. You show that we are not religious fanatics, but modern, intelligent people! Sergey and Tatiana from Romania
