The consumerism of our culture and my Christian faith often leave me pondering … “When is enough … enough?” We’re bombarded with advertisements and social pressures to have more, to have something bigger and better. Often times, when we do not have the latest style, the newest model, the larger home and the newer car, it leaves us feeling like we do not have enough.
I believe it’s great to enjoy the good things in life, which have different definitions for nearly each one of us.

Well, we’re halfway there already, what with political correctness. But here in Canada, we have something called “Human Rights Commissions.†These are the equivalent of Child and Family Services for grownups. If you tick off someone else, they can complain their human rights were violated and drag you before a tribunal which may financially or otherwise penalize you. Certainly, you’ll find there’s a social penalty to face, just for becoming a defendant.
A few years ago, a rash of gay-versus-Christian cases went through the HRCs.

Molly: I would love to really visit Canada someday. Do you live in Alberta maybe or near there?
Cat: I live about a day’s drive from Alberta, and there’s another province between here and there. Niagara Falls is twice as far the other direction. But we have real cowboys here in Manitoba too. Did growing up country-style have any positive influences on your development as a writer? Any negative ones?

Bernice Milton has an interesting piece on the shifting face of Evangelical Christianity in the Thursday Times Online. Noting, “The terms of engagement in America’s “culture wars†have been subtly changing since the 1990s with the economic, intellectual, social and political coming of age of many Evangelicals in the Bible Belt.” I agree with her observation and in part that is what has given birth to Humble O Radio. It’s something different because what has been the norm just isn’t good enough anymore.
Welcome to the revolution!

Be part of something different.
Please know we want DIFFERENT. There are plenty of wonderful “Christian Blogs” out there for fine, churchgoing Christians to read and slap their AMEN onto. We have no desire to be another one of those.
We want our writers to have a bit of an edge to them. Speak to people who do not speak the church lingo who may have left the church and have no desire to be IN CHURCH but still desire a relationship with Christ.
Step 1: Please check us out to determine whether you feel a fit with our current content, and feel free to send a submission/sample post to the email addy listed below.
Step 2: Here’s our call for submissions:
Humble O Radio has its roots in conversations over coffee.Â
These conversations were between people of faith who were wondering where God was in the midst of trials. Some well meaning people would shoot from the theological hip but that wasn’t good enough for them and frankly, it isn’t good enough for you.
The audio, video and written blogs on this site are here for people from all walks of life at all stages in their journey of faith, even when they feel like they’ve gotten off the path and have no faith. No worries, that hand that used to guide you is still there for you to hold too.
Humble O Radio is a live and interactive online radio stream that will feature music, compelling talk and interesting blogs from a Christian World View. We are looking for bloggers who are interested in writing weekly on the following topics (200-500 words per article).
Parenting Finances World Religions World Politics Health Music Art - Theater Technology and Gadgets Science Empty Nest Grand Parenting
Payment is in web exposure and the gratification of a great team environment. We’re doing something so unique, it’s been catching on organically even through a lazy winter. Just wait till we start actually working on it.
If you are interested please send samples of your writing and/or direct us to your blog to review your other writings by emailing us at humbleoradio @ gmail.com…be sure to close the gaps before and after the @ in the address for it to work properly.
