Moody Radio Network, based in Chicago, recently invited me to do two on air interviews live on their 100,000 watt Chicago station, which also streams live over the internet at WMBI.fm. The interviews were great, and were a great opportunity to raise awareness around our Christian Comic Arts Society mission.
These type of radio interviews usually last 10-15 minutes. They are quick and fun! The questions centered around things like how long we've been around, or what are some popular Christian comics, or how is God using comics. I was able to share about Buzz Dixon's Serenity comics (published by Thomas Nelson) and about how The Foursquare Church is using comics around the world (through Eric Jansen.) I touched on how much attention comics have been getting from pop culture including the blockbuster films, and most recently from the Spidey Obama comic.
With the speed of these radio interviews, you have to think on your feet and answer quickly because you don't have the questions ahead of time. As I answered the questions, I talked about the movement(s) that God is making within comics and how He has placed people in ministry to create evangelistic church resources AND also placed Christians in the comic industry to serve as a living example within their companies. As I said that, God imprinted on me yet again how valuable each of one of us is to Him - how valuable YOU are just being involved in comics and here with CCAS. What a blessing for us to be able to share together, to serve together in the place God has put us through our interest in comics.
I hope you'll stop today to enjoy what God has put into you through your interest in comics, and pray on what He might want to do through you today or in the future. Regardless of what you are "doing" today for God, I hope you'll be able to take some time to just "be" with Him today.
