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.
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.

…No, I don’t mean what you might find up the nose of a Christian with a cold.
TheBereanCall.org’s radio program, Search the Scriptures Daily, quotes an Orlando Sentinel article from Feb 22/08 on evangelicals and global warming:
“Global warming is an offense against God….America needs our biblical outrage….we as a nation will face a judgment from God if we don’t do this.”
– Rev. Richard Cizik, National Association of Evangelicals’ vice-president of governmental affairs
Cizik has been covered by enviro mag Grist, the Washington Post, PBS’s Religion & Ethics Newsweekly and Christianity Today for his opinions on global warming. Other major evangelical leaders, including James Dobson, have called for him to be silenced or fired for his stance on the climate change controversy. According to a quote referenced by Christianity Today, Jerry Falwell brands it “be[ing] duped by these ‘earthism’ worshippers.”

I get a pretty steady flow of emails from “Christians” who rant and rave about Oprah and her new age teaching shows. I don’t disagree that Oprah teaches and brings into the mainstream a lot of New Age thinking and I also recognize that she does a ton of very good things as well.
