For as long as I can remember, 99.7 has been part of my life and my home. I’ve listened to this station for years, and it has truly been a blessing to me and my family. Whether I’m starting my day, driving, or at home, the music and messages remind me of God’s faithfulness and bring peace into our lives.
During the Christmas season especially, I love hearing the worship and Christmas songs. They fill my heart with joy and gratitude and help me stay focused on the true meaning of the season. In moments of stress or uncertainty, this station has been a source of encouragement and hope.
I’m also very grateful to have a Christian English-speaking radio station that shares the Word, uplifts families, and spreads positivity. 99.7 has been more than just a radio station to me—it’s been a constant source of comfort, faith, and inspiration. Thank you for being such a blessing to our community and to my family.

Growing up, faith wasn’t a regular part of my life. My family didn’t follow a religion, though my mother would occasionally pray with us at night.
In 2023, I stumbled upon Q 99.7 while looking for new music, and instead of just music, I found hope and faith. That inspired me to begin exploring my relationship with God.
Before knowing Christ, I struggled with anxiety, depression, and directionless living. My life lacked moral grounding, and I felt lost. Through Him, I have found healing, purpose, and a path to becoming a better person.

I remember one day I was driving and just feeling heavy with everything on my mind — school, football, and life in general. Then a song came on The Q 99.7, and the words hit me right where I needed them. It reminded me that God was still with me, even in the middle of my stress. I can honestly say that moment lifted my spirit and gave me the peace I had been praying for. God used that song to remind me He’s always right there, even when I feel like I’m carrying too much

I love how you play Josiah Queen's music. He has been so impactful for me as a Gen Z Christian; writing popular music that isn't just "feel good Christian" but actually convicts me to walk closely with the Lord.

Recently I felt disconnected from my church I felt like I was just not aligned with my walk with Christ . Wasn’t reading my Bible as much. I got in the car and Honest by Leanna Crawford came on and I just balled my eyes out. I needed that cry I needed to hear those words and know that it happens sometimes but after hearing it I felt better and was able to attend the next Sunday service at my church and I truly felt like that service was meant for me. Music is healing and I really believe God speaks to me through songs. Thankful for The Q!

Unexpectedly a chapter in my life was closing, I was shocked, my mind was running, I get in my car and start driving home. I get to a red light and realize I did not turn on the radio (I always do, it’s on auto with the Q99.7). I turn it on and the words “God's not done with you”(song by Tauren Wells) is being sung and I was like "God is talking to me right now and everything is gonna be ok". I started crying and then I smiled because immediately I realized He is with me always and He is telling me it’s gonna be ok. Phew, can’t believe I shared that.

I have never met him, but my heart hurts so much for his family and for our nation. All of the hate that is being spread, I just can’t seem to understand. When I hear songs of encouragement and hope on the Q997, my faith and trust in God helps me to cope with the pain in this world. I know God is good and his plans are better and he knows all. These songs help me to stay close to God and not let the wickedness of the world hurt me.

Songs arrive at the right time and when you really need them. God is using the Q99.7 to do just that. “Come Jesus Come” by Stephen McWhirter was/is my “heart cry” song. I first heard it on Facebook last year so when I heard it on the Q99.7 it reminded me of the day I first heard it. I was stuck in traffic for 4 hrs. in Richmond, VA, and the song was in my playlist and when it came on I blasted it! One guy on a motorcycle turned towards me and nodded my way! Either he’d heard it before, or for the first time, but every time I hear it now, I think of that moment. Oh! And traffic started moving faster, too! Haha! Thank you for being the first station in this area to play this great song! Blessings to all.

I usually listen to worship music through Apple CarPlay. But when CarPlay randomly stopped working, tuned into the Q 99.7 I was very happy about finding a faith base station. Within five minutes, went from happy to amazed as I heard my pastor’s voice on the station, inviting people to our church!

Hi Q.99.7! I’m 29 years old but when I was a teenager, I’d wake up every night listening to you guys on the radio. Laura Story blessings would come on and I’d bawl my eyes out everyday because I was so heavily struggling with depression. I was able to find Christ because of you at New Life Church in East Longmeadow. I haven’t had the smoothest of path when it comes to my faith, but most recently I was in a toxic marriage that ultimately led to a divorce. I had spent my entire 20s on this marriage and felt so lost. I remember during the time in the marriage I kept hearing in my head that this is not what He would want for his children and I clung onto the promise that He would see me through this. I was raised that divorce was bad and we couldn’t leave . I had no idea what was in store for me but I knew this wasn’t the ending of my story. Fast forward two years later, I am divorced and having my first child that I wasn’t entirely sure would be possible to have. I am in a healthy relationship, my life has changed, my mental health has gotten better. I lost focus on God but I quite literally worshipped my way through these life few years as music is one of the many ways for me to be connected to Him. Music saved me. If I had to tell you where this all began, I would tell you it started with 16-year-old Natalie waking up in the middle of the night struggling with anxiety and sadness, listening to Laura story, Matthew West, and a random stranger telling me how loved I am even though in those moments I felt so unlovable. I’m so grateful to have this station be a part of my story and I’m so glad that you guys are still around to touch other peoples lives the way you have done mine over the years!

In 2015 my Dad died from stomach cancer, Leslie (amazing woman that she is) got everyone in the studio together and they got a card signed by everyone for us. It sounds like such a little thing, but it forever cemented The Q as family. We've done what we could for and with The Q ever since, because we felt the love and friendship and preciousness of the bond that we had been able to form with everyone. Love you all!!!

Everyday more than ever the music on the Q997 is comforting me. I just lost my mom four weeks ago and I’m at a loss right now. My mom had Alzheimer’s for the last seven years and had been in a nursing home. I’m struggling with this loss. The music continues to give me strength when I just want to sit and cry. Thank you for your music and your love spread through the airways!

I was going through a rough time in life, I knew of the Q 99.7 and chose to turn it on that morning. I felt so defeated and alone after my surgery things didn't go as planned and I listened for 2 hours and I felt the presence of God. Listening to the music, the verses, I felt great, I told myself that day I was going to change….and since that day I have been non stop listening to the Q. I even got picked to go the zoo with different families. It's just a reminder that we are a community that loves God and I am so blessed to be able to have the Q 99.7 as my radio station.

I wasn’t having such a great morning that day either but, instantly I felt such gratitude for God keeping his hand over my life. I started crying & thanking God because for me it was beautiful, I felt like God was giving me a reminder to cheer up bc a bad morning is so minuscule to the love God provides each and every day. I don’t know but, that day will forever stick with me & Q99.7 will forever be my #1 radio station.

A couple of months back I was going through some things and there was prayer happening on the air. I heard you guys say there is one more line open and I called in and got through. I just want to say how much that prayer has helped me. God has opened so many doors for me since then. The pastor that prayed over me prayed that God would supernaturally bless my finances and let me tell you, He has! I’m so glad that I called and was able to be prayed over. Everything has taken a complete change and I feel so blessed. I needed that prayer at that time and I’m so glad that God allowed me to get on that last line. He spoke through the pastor and answered all the questions that I needed answers to!! God is good!
This station has truly blessed me and I’m so grateful and I know that God is not done with me yet just like the pastor that prayed over me said!

The Q99.7 was instrumental in my journey to conversion. More than once. The music spoke to me, or I should say God was speaking through the music to me. I kept hearing the same messages and brought me to seek his help and develop prayer habits and reading the Bible and spending more and more time hearing his word. But it was the music on the Q 99.7 that got my attention. So grateful and thankful and now have a relationship with God I did not have before. And the miracles he worked in my life. All praise and Glory to our God.

I strayed for some years as an addict using due to the depression and other mental, emotional and spiritual impairments but TODAY my life is 100% different thanks to GOD.

The lyrics to the songs run through my mind all day long (which I love!) and the conversations of the hosts make me think--often sending me back to my Bible for answers.

“I Am Not Alone” came on the radio just as I was going to drive off a bridge over the CT River. That area was under construction so there wasn’t a curb or Jersey barriers. I literally could hear and feel the pull from Satan to sharply turn my steering wheel to the right (which would have sent me over the edge). At the same time I could hear Jesus whispering “Hold on, hold on” as I felt the steering wheel being turned to the left to keep me on the road. The music seemed to go up in volume as I was crying out to God to “Keep me on the road!” Over and over until I got to my exit.

I have always loved there music in fact my granddaughter who was like 5 and now is about to be 20 used to sit in the back seat singing the songs and we loved every moment of it. Recently I have been getting beat down by devil pretty bad and it was my 4 yr old grandson who one day said put my music on at the time I didn't know what he was talking about but when I was changing the radio station he said there that my song it was the Q. And this time it has been different the music seems like it is speaking to me. And it has brought me through some seriously dark and difficult times. I am so grateful that even though I stopped listening the Q kept going it Is because of all the people that donates, works and volunteers that I am able to come back and be encouraged. Thanks to all u supporters because without u this station wouldn't be able to reach listeners like myself who really needed the right music at the right time.

My wife works from home and has your station on the Alexa all day, so when I call her via video chat, she is always singing and very happy and I started to listen at my work area. I fills me up with joy. I have never felt so good listening to music and the encouraging thoughts for the day. I'm grateful for your station.

I just lost my Aunt recently and found out that my cousin has cancer on top of being very behind on bills with 3 kids, so I was feeling very down and like God wasn’t hearing me or helping. I was feeling very overwhelmed and just felt alone. So, I was driving and was angry and thought that there was no hope. I turned on your station and the song "God is in your Story" came on and, as I listened to the words, it reminded me that God is here with me holding my hand. I have a story but without Him there wouldn’t even be a story. He is holding my hand the whole time, so I need to call on Him more and live my story the way He wants me to. God is so amazing and it is my job to listen closer and harder to what He wants for me. He is an amazing God. The Q 99.7 reminds me of that every time I turn it on. I love listening to this station. A song always comes on when I need it. The song “We all need Jesus” says it all too. This station has helped me in so many ways. I have a problem with depression and The Q 99.7 is such an uplifting help when I need it. I love the songs that are played. It is a positive tool in my day to day life.

I just put on Q 99.7, and here the prayers, here the worship, and it literally reminds me that everything will be okay with the love of God. That he will not let me fall, and everything will work out just how it's meant to. Thank you for all you do

Where should I start? It's been a long journey, experience, life, with God. Full of good times and bad times, but the bad always end up turning into His perfect plan for not just me, but others as well. From being homeless, to finally being at home with God has been the best feeling so far. Although this journey/trips with Him have been bringing me every type of direction, He always has been faithful to me, loving and kind, especially patient lol. It's always been the best team effort and huge family effort as well, if we weren't able to work together or serve together this world would be more than a mess. I am loving this so far, and this has been another great time, looking and seeking for the best with Him always. I love you all, thank you so much for being supportive and helpful when Im in need. God bless you and all of His ministries with you all.

The 99.7 has changed my life!! I started listening 6 years ago when I was going true a tough time in my life and needed to get back to church. Since then I am a strong Christian, my Faith in God has grown so much. I listen to The Q 99.7 all day in my car, on my phone, in my home... my husband knows all the songs and he is not a Christian but I know that all the encouragement of The Q 99.7 will bring him to Jesus. He has not missed not even one concert that I have attend. Last March I won tickets to see Toby Mac and he loved it!!

I've been struggling. About a month ago, I walked out of work and sat in my car. I found myself at a place or I felt alone and completely unwanted. I opened my journal, turned on the microphone, and said, "I feel like I am not enough for anyone and that I am easily forgettable and replaceable." With tear streaming down my face, I turned on my car to drive home. The Q 99.7 is always on my radio, and the very first thing I heard was, "who said that you weren't beautiful, and that you didn't belong in your own skin? Who said that you were all alone, and that you're never going to find love again?" from Rachael Lampa's song "Perfectly Loved." Cue even more tears. I can't remember how I found out about The Q 99.7 many years ago; but I do know that between the music, the DJs, and the events they have sponsored, I have found some of the strength I needed to keep going. The songs, the testimonies, the encouragement, and the Christian community has kept me moving forward. My storm is not over, but I know I will always have The Q 99.7 to lift me up. Thank you.

The day my best friend moved out of state was the same day my dad passed away. I only got to "be with him" one last time via FaceTime since he lives in another state. I was crushed. My heart was breaking into a million pieces. I felt so alone. But you played Katy Nicole's song "In the name of Jesus" at just the right time to help me remember the Lord was still with me and I still have a strong faith family here to support me through prayer. My best friend even called me from the road when she got the news that my dad had passed... and, she's not out of my life, just out of my town. Later on, I was listening to Kari Jobe's song "I Am Not Alone" that helped boost my heart even more. Grief and mourning are not just for a day, nor is it just for those that have died, but God is on this journey with me, so I will make it with my faith intact.

I was feeling very overwhelmed and just felt alone. So I was driving and was just angry and thought that there is no hope. I turned on your station and the song "God is this Story" came on and, as I listened to the words, it reminded me that God is here with me holding my hand. I have a story but without Him there wouldn’t even be a story. He is holding my hand the whole time, so I need to call on Him more and live my story the way He wants me to. God is so amazing and it is my job to listen closer and harder to what He wants for me. He is an amazing God. The Q 99.7 reminds me of that every time I turn it on. I love listening to this station. A song always comes on when I need it. The song “We all need Jesus” says it all to. This station has helped me in so many ways.

When I heard that a good friend of mine passed away, I was upset because he passed away last year and did not find out until now, when I caught up with his wife at church. However, when I put on the station, it helped to calm me down and to realize that my friend is in a better place with Jesus.

Your station is playing during work time. One student had a particularly difficult day (medically & emotionally). After he was able to sit still he heard the song Shackles & asked about it. You opened the door for Jesus to him. Praying he will be attending Young Life this Fall.

I've been going through life changes with a relationship, health, finances, moving, and job change all at the same time, so I've felt very defeated at times. I just put on Q 99.7, and here the prayers, here the worship, and it literally reminds that everything will be okay with the love of God. That he will not let me fall, and everything will work out just how it's meant too. Thank you for all you do. 🙏🏽❤️

Currently, I listen to the Q in the morning at work. I get up really early and am not a morning person. I was having trouble staying focused on the job at hand and thought the upbeat music would help. It turns out that it does so much more than that. I have found that I think about God so much more and have a much more positive outlook every day. I love these "side effects" of my new habit. Thank you.

Then things started getting a little hairy and and the feeling good and connected with Jesus didn't last until the next camping week. Then, someone told me about the Q997. It's local and and it is a great station and has given me hope and encouragement through that time and and now that I have outgrown that camp.

Friday July 1st was my 2 years of sobriety date and I celebrated by being baptized on Sunday the 3rd. Prior to getting sober, I was not a believer. I didn’t believe in anything other than the world revolves around me. I was going through rehab for the second time when one of the sponsors pulled me aside and told me I needed to pray, that God was the only one who could help me. Once I stopped laughing, I realized she was serious. So that night, having tried everything else and not knowing anything about praying, I said 5 words. God, please help me. Amen. And the next day, my whole world was changed. It’s as if someone changed my perception of things. I saw the beauty in things, I’d see God’s fingerprint everywhere I looked. He worked a miracle that night and continues to work in my life, making me a better person with every new day. And though it all, The Q has been there, inspiring me every step of the way. God bless you for all you have done for me and all your other listeners. I tell every one about The Q whenever I testify of how God has changed my life.

After a doctor's appt., I was in need of encouragement and as I started my car, the radio was playing, "Believe For It" by CeCe Winans. It was exactly what I needed to hear at that moment. It lifted my spirits and brought me JOY! Healing my soul before my body! Thank you for continuing to provide great music to the Pioneer Valley and beyond.

Struggling with shame, depression and anxiety and the concept of God as I began my journey of Sobriety and Recovery, I started hearing songs with lyrics that described exactly how I was feeling entwined with messages of faith and HOPE. Turning on my car radio became a lifeline as I kept doing the work and was restored to sanity through a power greater than myself. I am now 34 days clean and sober and listening continues to give me the strength and hope to continue doing the work. Thank you for being there. You helped save my life.

There was a point when my husband wouldn’t want to hear the station and would change it over and over again. But God used this amazing radio station to help her family find God! We only listen to the Q99.7!!

Just now I got a "drive thru difference" at the Dunkin on westfield st... I really want to thank whoever has done that, it really brought a tear of joy to my eye and put me in an amazing mood. There was even a nice signed little note to come with it. Not only that, but mine was like $12 and all she got was a coffee, I felt so bad! I knew then I had to pay it forward and paid for the next person in line. The lady behind me even ended up paying for the person behind them. After she got all of her order, she waved at me in thanks and I to her and we parted ways. I believe we all started a little chain reaction. This whole situation just put a huge smile on my face and it just made me feel so good after that. It goes to show, just a little thing like this can have an extraordinary impact on people's days. Thank you to whoever had started this chain reaction, because it definitely made other people's days too. :)

Hello Q99.7! Well first let me say thank you for EVERYTHING YOU GUYS DO! The support you guys give our community! I know God has been with me through the storm and I know He will NEVER leave me, but He sure knew I needed my Q! lol! I first heard the station through my son Ernesto that's 15 years old now. He was probably 9 years old at the time, but would not got to sleep without it! I remember he had a little radio in his room and he could NOT sleep without this station on! It sure is our feel good station! God spoke to me through this station and still does till this day, in so many ways, and so many times. I lost count! Through chronic pain, addictions, anxiety, ect, God chose you guys, and the music you play which I love to minister to my children and I. We are really faithfull listeners of the Q! In the midst of this storm, I've come to realize that music and praise is a DEADLY WEAPON! So lets get it Q99.7! LETS KILL THEM WITH KINDNESS! HONESTY! AND LOVE! OUR LORD WILL DO THE REST! May God continue blessing this station so that it can continue to do what it does best! Thats bless and motivate our community and friends. Our brothers and sisters in CHRIST.

I have to share this... on Saturday I was in a car parade for domestic violence awareness in memory of one of my former student's mother's murder 10 years ago, Jessica R. As the cars started to begin to drive, of course I had the Q 99.7 on my radio. And as we began the parade, "Be Alright” by Evan Craft started to play... I allowed the words to wash over me and I reflected on how incredibly appropriate it was to start the parade with that song. Especially as I sang along in Spanish... it was such a holy and amazing moment... thank you for all that you all do at the Q 99.7 to make these moments possible...God bless you!!!!!!!!

Before I found the Q family I felt useless, not needed and I was always asking myself why am I here on this earth? For what? But after 3 years of being a silent listener I started to feel at peace and understanding why we all are here, we are God's children He created us for a purpose. To live, to create my own children, to help spread His word, to believe in Him, for He sacrificed himself for all of us. And I am a lot happier now knowing I am loved by him unconditionally, no matter what people tell me or think about me, I don't feel scared no more because I know He's right beside me

My youngest stresses about High School he is a Junior this year. Both my parents are disabled and live downstairs from me. Mom is a cancer survivor, so I stress over the extra caution it takes for caring for her and my Dad. I am only surviving because of the Q 99.7. It is always on in my car when I am driving. I have the app on my phone and use it, Whenever I am at home, I am usually cooking or cleaning or both and The Q 99.7 is louder than my thoughts. You guys have been my life safer since I found you in Sept 2013, when my whole life was turned upside down and through you and God I survived then and I will survive this too I can not live with out the Q 99.7.

The songs that I need to hear are always on point for what I may be experiencing at the moment. It’s always encouraging. The Q DJs are the best! I've been a believer for many years but being a PK and youngest of 9, I always felt inadequate to my siblings who seemed more “churchy” and perfect than I was. When I talk to the Lord It’s as if I’m having a regular conversation with Him. This made me feel inadequate even though God was answering my prayers. The Q DJs are authentic, fun, and just regular people who love God. I feel connected to them. They pray like typical modern day people that I can relate to and be encouraged!

It started to get a bit scary especially with my history of depression and suicide. A couple of days ago I began to listen to worship music and listening to the Q99.7 which has reminded me of the light and joy that God has provided me in my life. Having this station as an option to listen to Godly music is a true blessing. Thank you to all the staff for being there and for doing such an amazing job. God bless all of you

I just started fostering two little girls 5 & 8 and the other day they received Bibles from my church and then when we were in the car they heard some one on the Q 99.7 say the word Bible. And one of them perked up and said wow, does everyone have a Bible? I said only the lucky ones Honey. It was just confirmation that seeds are being planted and watered. And they LOVE the music, EVERY song is their "Favorite" and they want me to turn it up louder for them.

Just the fact that people are able to create such amazing music that reflects God's glory and power is a testament to how he is working in people's everyday lives.

As I get closer to my 25th birthday, I keep looking back and seeing just how much God has rescued me from and changed for me - both around me and within. 2017 was an earth-shattering year for me, and I've been stumbling around in my faith since then. I recently moved back home to Springfield from NY and have been tested to expand my discernment, allow God to examine my heart, increase my faith and walk in the fullness of the spirit of Revival He's given me!
Since coming back, I've thrown myself full force into dance ministry at Crossover Church, I've started Revival Fitness classes (zumba and fitcamps) using Christian music, and I've embraced what it means to share the experience of a relational God with everyone around me. I thank you all SO MUCH for your constant love and care for all of your listeners. The Kingdom is truly blessed by your hearts.

Sometimes I feel like I’m on a treadmill. Every day is just the same as the day before. Get up, make the lunches, put the kids on the bus, fold the laundry, wash the dishes ... I was feeling pretty sorry for myself recently and Steven Curtis Chapman’s song, “Do Everything” came on The Q. It reminded me that every little thing we do is done for the glory of God, even the boring and repetitive things like picking up toys from the living room floor for the fifteenth time today.

This past year has been hard on me. I tried overdosing and I was hurting myself. My mom messed up her life by making poor decisions and my dad hasn't really been in the picture. I get bullied everyday. I get told to kill myself. I wasn't comfortable with myself and then started sending inappropriate photos to guys to make myself feel better. when I was 10 I was raped by my best friend. I now pray everyday for a better life but still sometimes wanna die. I listen to the Q every morning during my second and third period at school. It helps me get through everything.

This is my story how I TRULY found GOD.... I have always been a believer in "God" and never really thought about anyone else. I was deceived by lies, pretending to be someone they were NOT. I was told that they had my dog who passed away in November, I was reminded of all the "bad" I've done in the present and past.. smoking, stealing and even told me to stop singing (which I do LOUDLY all the time). I questioned WHY I was being ripped apart for things... I am very aware of things Ive done and asked WHY none of my GOOD wasn't mentioned. I help the homeless when I can, bring clothes to homeless shelters, I am a good friend and acknowledged my wrong doing. I am a GOOD person who makes bad choices. I realized I was NOT dealing with GOD. I told myself that GOD would NEVER tell me to stop singing. EVER. I was leaving my house one day to go to church for their food bank and was TOLD to NOT go to church. I THEN knew I was NOT speaking with GOD. Disappointed in myself, how could I have made that mistake?? I have always been a believer in GOD, NOTHING MORE. I turned to the bible, listen to services and started asking GOD to forgive me for wrong doings. I now know and starting to understand the TRUE meaning of GOD. To not just thank GOD when you get a green light instead of red, or finding a great sale. Now that I read the bible DAILY ..wishing I started sooner. GOD would NEVER tell me to STOP singing..nor would he point out all my flaws. I found GOD. I FOUND AND BELIEVE IN GOD. I will rise up!! What a wonderful, glorious, beautiful, amazing, peaceful GOD we have. AMEN all day long.

When I found out that my nephew (whom I had raised as my own son for 10 years) had suddenly passed away after being hit by a truck on his way home from work. We had not kept in contact since he left the state to live with his biological mom for the past 3 years. So the sudden shock of his death was unbearable. The night I found out I was driving home listening to The Q 99.7 and the song "Just be held" by Casting Crowns was playing and I just broke down and had to pull over, the song seemed not to have an ending and as it played it seemed like I could hear my son singing the words to me.

As we listen to The Q 99.7, all 3 of my kids have really taken to "Confidence" by Sanctus Real (or as they call it: "Lion's Den") and it really encourages and blesses me to hear them hollering the words at the top of their lungs. The song references Bible stories they're familiar with and I love seeing them excited to sing about truths written in God's word!

Our father passed away 3 months ago, and it’s been really hard to find direction ever since. But there are some days where I turn the radio to The Q 99.7 and there’s always the perfect song playing that has a few words of direction that’s helped me get through the day or even the week. Our father was always into worship, so even just some of the slower worship songs have helped.

I have been suffering from hip pain from my pregnancy that makes standing or walking for more than 10 minutes painful. I have made it a daily habit to play Bethel Music's “No Longer A Slave/I Am A Child of God” to my baby. One day I was in a lot of pain and just feeling deflated. Wouldn’t you know that that was the song that came on The Q 99.7. It was a gentle reminder that I too am a child of God and that He will see me through this. When my baby arrives, it will be worth the pain.

It is always a song on The Q 99.7 as I am driving, that helps me through the day, loss of my mom a year ago, and now my dad battling an uphill battle with cancer. Many times I lose faith and patience, question does he hear me, see me, care, and then a song comes over the air wave as I drive and it gets me through the many ripples and plunges of life. Thank you for helping me through the voyage.

Pretty much everyday on The Q 99.7 there's a song, or a prayer that God uses to speak into my life. Whether something speaks directly to me or not, having these songs and thoughts going out over the airwaves is something I think we may never fully realize the impact it's all having. I'm SO grateful to have the opportunity to fill my head, heart, and surroundings with praise to God 24/7. Thank you, thank you, thank you for doing what you do to make this possible!

The song "Joy" by For King and Country was something I really needed to hear. It mentions how as we get older life moves so fast and sometimes we just wish it would stop. I need to keep that in my heart also as it feels like living life at such a fast pace sometimes robs me of my joy and I doubt want my heart to turn to stone. I love that song and it helps me take a step back and feel joy.

The song "God Only Knows" from King & Country was playing on The Q 99.7 as I started my car after attending a very emotion-filled neuro-psychological testing procedure for Memory issues. At that moment, since I had not spoken to anyone else about the things that were weighing heavy on my heart, I found it difficult to contain my inner-thoughts and emotions of the day. I felt that I had no person I could call on to share what had just transpired and that song helped me stand firm in the knowledge that God Knows, even when I do not, or cannot, share my heart with others. I have always gone to Prayer first, before speaking with people. I allow God to lead me to whom I should, or shouldn't, share my personal things with. His timing and His ways are perfect so I continue Trusting Jesus in all things. That is the key to inner peace, so I am thankful to God for the song. Thank you to The Q99.7 for sharing it.

last year while going through a horrible divorce and multiple restraining order hearings, I was traveling on public transportation as my mind wandered and raced. Tears started flowing and I couldn't stop it. I was so embarrassed. I put my headphones in and turned to your station and a song had already been playing but the first words I heard were "just hold on and I'll find you." I listened to every word of the lyrics and it touched my soul and gave me hope. I smiled through those tears. Realizing I had been stronger than I thought even in my darkest hour when I couldn't speak. my tears spoke directly to Him for me. I have to listen everyday and read faithfully to keep going and strengthen my relationship with God. There is no other station in comparison with The Q 99.7. Thanks for allowing Him to work through you all and filling me up with hope!

God is always using The Q 99.7 to bless others! Last week, I heard the new song by Tauren Wells, “God’s not done with you” on my way to work and it made me think of a coworker that was going through some troubles. When I got to work, I emailed my coworker that song and told her that this song made me think of her. Later on in the day, she told me that she was so touched that I thought of her but even more touched by the song. I told her it was nothing but God telling her that He’s not done with you.

Good morning I need to share this.
I left my house this morning at 6:30 am in Westfield to take my granddaughter to her daycare in Springfield on Cooley Street (Shout out to Kindercare) a good 45 min drive one way. After dropping her off and arrived home I realized, I forgot to drop off her medicine. So I went to my apartment and made a cup of coffee for the long ride.
I get in my car of course turn on my radio to the Q Brant is talk how do you see God? He continues and says I'm a white guy so I see him as an old white guy when he told Gandalf I couldn't stop laugh and thought of when Gandalf says" YOU SHALL NOT PASS."
Thank was better than my cup of coffee.
Have a Blessed day!

The Q 99.7 blessed me when they brought us the David Dunn and Alisa Turner concert to our local community. My 8-year-old daughter wanted more than anything to see David Dunn, so I decided to surprise her with the meet and greet. It was Alisa Turner, however, who blessed me. We’ve walked similar paths in life and she really encouraged me to not give up and to continue to believe God’s promise of restoration. She was only able to give me a few minutes of her time, but I will carry her words, her kindness, and her compassion with me forever.

You can know the bible and know what God says about what you’re going through but when you’re not in a good place it doesn’t matter.

I was molested at a young age and it never effected me til now. I've grown up forced to go to church(Catholic), I got to the point in my life that I hated everything including my own life and GOD as well. I'm now 39 yrs old and my mom still doesn't believe that I was molested.I have three children that I love but don't know how to show it because i didn't grow up knowing love. January 22, 2017 I walked into RWC high on heroin and drunk. A month later I decided I had enough and stopped it all. Continued to go to church and joined the service team and found relief of all kinds. But then I had a falling out in Oct 2017, I quit church quit serving quit working out started to drink .. had no job from June 2018-Sept 2018. Depression anxiety anger all just took over my body my soul my spirit..I'm currently in the darkest pit without sight of light at the end of the tunnel I'm tired, tired of being a parent tired of trying to be responsible I want to quit and sometimes die. I can't get myself out of this darn pit....My son is 23 living in Colorado and financially struggling. My 22 year old daughter keeps losing her jobs and my 16 year old daughter likes girls and her father just spoils her instead of filling the refrigerator. The devils spirits have come to take me 100 folds. I listen to the Q every single day, I refuse to let anyone change the channel. Although I am struggling I am praying that things change not just for me but for my whole family...... THANK YOU Q FAMILY FOR ALWAYS TRYING TO KEEPING LIFE POSITIVE!!!!!!!

You always seem to be playing the song that I so need to hear. I am for ever greatful for all the music you play. The best part about the Q is that my 4 year old daughter is going to grow up with inspiring, spiritual, and amazing music you play. Her current favorite song is Fix my eyes from For King and Country. Bless you for all that you do.

I have been blessed daily by the music as well as the dj’s that feel like family. My husband and I have attended several concerts that were sponsored by the “Q” and we are so grateful for the “Q” family. It’s such a blessing to support the station and what it stands for!

So, I've always loved Christian music but I would listen to country too. (Sadly country music is NOT country music anymore) Anyway a little over 2 years ago my 2 and half year old daughter had some major sickness, many ER trips, hospital stays and many new doctors... where I knew things could be A LOT worse, and I was SO Thankful for still having my daughter even with her new medical journey... some days, were SO HARD, I really questioned God, I cried a lot: seeing her in pain, holding her down for the 10th try for an IV line, when I felt alone, when we were getting no answers... thankfully music has always been a "feel better" way for me. Around the same time, there where some songs that just came on at the right time, when I was "losing the battle" you could say.... one was "Move" TobyMac... another "Trust in You" Lauren Daigle and so many others as if God was reminding me... He here. I can still struggle on harder days and a song you've been playing a lot lately gets me everytime by Natalie Grant "More than Anything"

This has been a tough season for me and my family my dad was hospitalized in June while at his Doctor's visit he had a grand mal seizure and was rushed to the hospital were they put him in an induced coma. Since then he has been in and out of the hospital for UTI's. I can say I have been questioning my faith a lot to the point where I stopped even listening to Christian music. The other night my youngest (who is on the autism spectrum and is on the lower part of the spectrum) came and sat next to me and blurted out confidence when I asked him what he meant he said play sanctus real confidence. I looked it up once I started listening I could not control the tears. My little man then looked up at me and said mom God loves you. I was blown away I will admit I still struggle but its getting a little better each day. Thank you for all you do for your listeners.

I've been having continuous struggles as a parent and as an adult over all. The New song, by Hillsong "Let the devil know not today" is an empowerment song, reminding us the authority God has given us cast away all malice. To know God is in control even when we feel overwhelmed by circumstance

here was some unpleasantness at work and it was really weighing on me. I tried and tried to deal with it and dismiss it but it wasn't working. I have had enough and declared one morning that it wasn't going to over take my day. The Q had a mix of songs that where just speaking to me that morning and a block away from my job 'Surrounded ' had came on. It brought me all the way onto my job to park with me singing along. From that day on the unpleasantness calmed down immensely.

last night as i was driving home the words to a song playing were "if not for Your grace i'd be homeless for eternity" gave me a deeper realization of eternity and made me stop and say "thank You Jesus" once again for saving me. In the past few months 7 people I know have died and a close friend is diagnosed with liver cancer with a 3% chance of survival so salvation ( of myself and others) is in the forefront of my mind

I've been listening to the Q all day today. As I opened my browser at work I was going to listen to a different station, but God put it in my heart to listen to the Q! He knew what my day would entail and that I would need the extra encouragement. This afternoon, someone stole a considerable amount of cash from my purse at work...I was discouraged and angry. I finished my work day dealing with the police and had to stop in Enfield before heading home.
It had been raining and there at the bus stop was a man soaked from the rain. I looked in my backseat and sure enough, there was an umbrella within my reach. I could not stop due to traffic, but I was able to circle around the block. I grabbed the umbrella, pulled over just enough, held it out for him and said, "please take it". He looked relieved as he humbly said "thank you" and I could see him opening it up immediately as I drove away. At that very moment, the sky opened up and the rain turned into a downpour. I was so happy to have given this man my umbrella. Just because my day had a bad incident, helping this man completely changed my mood!
Thank you to the Q for your uplifting music and messages.

The Q has helped me immensely over the last 10 years... I have been through some major ups and downs (my wedding, my children being born, my divorce, moving back in with my parents, getting my own place, back to my parents, my father passing away, getting my own place, a new job.. and right now, my son turning away from God) and the music and the DJs of the Q have continually been a major blessing to me and my children. continuing to guide and bless us - even through the hard time with my son - and I couldn't imagine life without this uplifting blessing and reminder of the community of believers around the world that stand together as The Church

I have been fighting stage IV lung cancer for 5+ years. It has been a real roller coaster journey with ups and downs, but God has been with me this entire journey. He has blessed me with every minute every second that I am breathing and living whether or not its a good day or a bad day. I got the opportunity to meet and pray with Pam and Tim staff at the Q.It was an incredible experience! I also got to donate and deliver valentines to the elderly in local nursing homes. Heavenly father I am so blessed by you! IT IS ENCOURAGING to be able to pass you're grace onto others that need it!! I just purchased tickets for OBB concert tomorrow I cannot wait to get some spiritual healing hallelujah and a huge AMEN!!!!
