Rejoice always, pray continually, in everything give thanks.
By Michael Sandstrom
We live in times of intense challenges. Many are hard-pressed, overwhelmed, anxious and feeling hopeless. It’s easy to fall into despair if we don’t fix our eyes on Jesus and His Word. He instructs us to follow Him closely and come to our heavenly Father in prayer with thanksgiving often, and then the peace of God will guard our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Praise God, what a promise!
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
Today, just like in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus also invites us to watch and pray. Here at CIAM we stand together with you in prayer with full assurance that Jesus is Victory in the ongoing battles we face. May His will be done here on Earth as in Heaven. The CIAM mission family recognizes that there is an urgency to reach out to our neighbors with the Gospel. How will they hear and know if we do not share the reason for our hope? Let us come together, believing expectantly in prayer, reaching out as one unified body in Christ, ready to listen and share our living faith with the lost, discouraged, brokenhearted, and lonely.
May we use the gifts and resources God has given us to make sure that everyone has the chance to hear the Good News, whether in person, over FM in small remote communities, or online. CIAM’s mission and ultimate goal is to share the Good News in such a way that people can hear the Truth, see the Way and find the Life through a personal relationship with Jesus.
As we hear from many listeners it is clear that CIAM Radio is making a difference in peoples lives here, now and for eternity. For many it is the only Good News they can hear and a timely encouragement and hope in their day, both through the music, God’s word and the teaching through the CIAM broadcasts.
During my home alone hours, and even beyond, CIAM is playing for much of the time. I’ve been encouraged and taught much via your radio station. Thank you for your sacrifical work to make that happen for me and many others. God bless you for it!

Please prayerfully consider how you and your church can get involved. Contact us and we would gladly tell you more how you can take the first step.
