When I was at a very young age, I felt that my true calling was to preach. So I "did a Jonah" and ran for years. Finally after years of running and praying about the calling that I thought that I was supposed to do, it finally hit me. I thought that I was supposed to be a preacher in a church but that is not what God had wanted from me. Confused yet? I was!! I have always loved music and wanted to be a DJ from as far back as I could remember, my mom had said that I used to go around pretending to be Wolman Jack with a hairbrush in my little hand (hehe). A few years later, I became disabled and couldn’t do much out of the house. Already being an internet junky with limited things I could do because of my disability, I stumbled onto INTERNET RADIO, and from there my journey in music and ministry began.

I started listening to different stations and I wasn’t getting what I wanted from Rock, Hip-hop or any other type I could find. With me being a mixed music lover all of my life, I began to DJ at a radio station called Hot Rocks Radio and loved doing it. Wanting to move forward in my new obsession, I moved to a station called WSRN and was a general manager for 4 stations, and there I also started my own. Then one day, GOD spoke to me and said that this isn’t what he wanted me to play and who am I to question a voice from nowhere (lol). At this time I hade been weakened and needed a "pick me up" and God provided as always. I prayed and prayed cause I really loved what I was doing but GOD wanted me to play his music and I had none.

 Then one day I missed typed the URL for the station that I was managing (Which was Solid Rock Radio and I played popular rock there) and guess what? A Christian radio station!! woohoo! I contacted the manager and he started me off as program director and I enjoyed it so much. He helped me get started, gave me some music, and sent me on my way. The owner of the station and I wanted to start a Southern Gospel radio station because I love that kind of music from my redneck heritage (Southern Kentucky). Thus Gloryland Radio was born. A few months later, my good friend Donna at KKR contacted me about her radio station and wanted me to DJ one night a week for her. So I tried to go back to playing just regular rock and it didn't feel right then I had an idea!! I couldn't be the only one who had felt like this and I wanted to do something different, something GOD would be proud of. I took all the great Christian music I had gathered and put it together and had my first show. It was a huge success!!  My call may have not been to preach in church on a Sunday morning, but it was defiantly to get the word of God out there. And that day, The Redneck Disciple Show was born!!

Now, I do a live show once a week and produce it for radio stations around the world and offer it on my site to be aired at different times and days throughout the week. So far I have 8 other internet stations and an AM station airing it and the list is still growing. Who would have thought that the little kid running around with a hairbrush would actually grow up to be a DJ and doing Gods work all at the same time.

The show is a listener supported and with out the listeners I can’t do it. If you feel the need to donate please do so at…
