Christmas may be months away, but now is the time to make a lasting impact. Elly Singer sits down with Dr. Kay Owen-Larson, co-founder and president of Crossroads Ministries, to talk about the ministry's annual Christmas in July drive and its Operation Golden Christmas outreach. Now in her 64th year of ministry, Dr. Owen-Larson shares her passion for serving seniors and the mission of bringing hope—and the love of Christ—to thousands of elderly residents in care centers across Southern Colorado. Learn how gifts collected during Christmas in July help prepare for the blessing of nearly 3,400 seniors during the Christmas season. Hear how you can get involved, what items are needed, and why KTLF is serving as an official Christmas in July drop-off location for this meaningful community outreach.

On this episode of KTLF Spotlight, we sit down with Phil Wickham for a powerful and personal conversation about faith, family, and legacy. Phil shares how his parents, who came to Christ during the Jesus Movement of the 1970s and traveled in Christian bands, shaped not just his love for music, but his understanding of God as a good Father. It is a story rooted in real life, lived out faith, and generational impact. You will also hear the incredible connection between his family and the events portrayed in Jesus Revolution, including how his dad came to faith, the role of key figures from that movement, and why a place called Pirates Cove means so much to him personally. This is more than a conversation about music. It is a reminder that what God does in one generation can echo into the next.

When Tasha Layton sings “Meet Me in the Valley,” she’s not speaking metaphorically. She actually went there. In this powerful conversation with Danielle Marie, Tasha shares the story behind the song… including a solo trip into Death Valley where she spent three days alone with God. It wasn’t a stunt, it was personal. A response to a past season marked by deep pain, including a suicide attempt, and a longing to truly meet God in the lowest places. This episode explores what it means to walk through the “valley” seasons of life (not avoid them) and how God doesn’t wait on the mountaintop. He meets us right there in the middle of the struggle. If you’ve ever wondered where God is in your hardest moments… this conversation is a reminder: He’s already there.

In this episode, we talk with Stephen McWhirter, a Dove Award–winning and Grammy‑nominated worship artist whose powerful testimony of redemption has inspired audiences worldwide. Once trapped in addiction and brokenness, Stephen experienced a radical encounter with Jesus that transformed his life and launched his ministry as a worship leader, speaker, and now author. He joins us to discuss his debut book, Radically Restored: How Knowing Jesus Heals Our Brokenness, where he shares his journey from trauma and rebellion into healing, forgiveness, and new purpose in Christ. The book offers hope for anyone seeking restoration and a deeper understanding of God’s redeeming love. This is the same book featured in our recent Gift of Grace Spring Fundraiser. With your $30/month gift or a single gift of $360, you can receive your own copy—available through March 20, 2026. You can give online now at KTLF.radio/give
