Hi, this is Mark. I’m actually calling from the Real Canadian Superstore—I work here. I’ve struggled with addiction and mental health all my life. I’ve hit some really low points and gone down some tough roads. But one day, I finally got on my knees and said, “God, show me the way.” That’s when I found this station. It’s been so helpful in drawing me closer to Jesus and keeping Him in my heart every day. Thank you for giving me the space to share this. I hope my story encourages someone else who’s also struggling with addiction or mental health. Have a great day. Bye.

Hope means that no matter how overwhelming this world gets, no matter how dark things seem, no matter how many times you fall down-if you trust God, he will ALWAYS be there to pick you up. He will NEVER leave you stranded. In these days of so much darkness and evil, it's so easy to lose hope. When I tune in to UCB, God gives me just what I need. God shows me there is light in this dark and lost world.

We lost my sister about 12 years ago now and there was a song that just came on the radio and it was just hit me. Praise the Lord, Oh my soul. And then the ending there where it says that, you know, “when my time has come, still my soul will be praising.” And my sister was a newly convert. And I know where she is because, you know, of her aversion to Christ and how she, you know, asked for forgiveness and--and God came into her heart, and it was very evident. And I know that, you know, she is with the Lord right now and someday I'll see her again. And that song was just so, so encouraging to my soul. So that was wonderful.
