Your Story

Debbie from Agawam, MA Hi Q 99.7 Friends! I love hearing the stories about the Drive-Thru difference. Usually, people are having a tough day and WHOA!... Someone pays for their coffee and sandwich! Love it! Well, here's a fun switch...I was having a tough day and remembered that this is the best time to do something for someone else. So, I printed out a drive-thru difference note and paid for someone behind me at a local drive-through. It felt great to do that! Thank you for engaging the community. Keep it going! Love you!!!!

KC - 17 year old from Springfield, MA This radio station is truly amazing and a work of God. Lives have been changed. I have been changed. The music reaches out to people. We can relate to the music and learn from it.

Gail from Topsham, ME I started listening to "The Q" several months ago; first in my car then at work. I can honestly say that this has been a blessing. I have gotten to know so many positive based Christian songs and artists that I find myself singing in my office! Several months ago a decision was made to move out of state and up to Maine where my husband's job had taken him. After living in my home for 28 years, raising my children there, taking care of my elderly parents til they passed there, the decision was a very difficult one to make. But prayerfully my husband and I talked to God daily and it seemed that all roads were leading us to Northern New England. We have been in Maine for 3 weeks and am loving it! I have been blessed to be able to now work from home and the very first thing I did, was make sure that I could log into the Q. I have been able to listen to the same positive music and messages while keeping my fingertip on what's going on in the place that I will always refer to as "back home". Thank you so much for making it possible for me to listen to "The Q" on my PC. You make working alone feel like I am still surrounded by family - God's family! . God bless your efforts.

Nicholas from Westfield, MA I just wanted to say thank you for everything you guys do. I credit your radio station and DJ's as a big part of what brough me back to God after 14 years. You guys are doing something really amazing, especially in an area of the country where so many are so lost.

Nancy from Greenfield, MA when I have been away at school in Longmeadow a few of my friends had their radio set to the Q, and one day I saw the number on the dial and reset my own dial on my radio. each day no matter what I am doing if its homework or reading this station just helps to keep a message of peace in my mind when things are spinning out of control. whenever I leave to go to class or work I still have a song playing in my head reminding me of the blessing and plans that God has in store for me as I walk along this path with Him and head to the Ministry.

Karina from Westfield, MA I praise God for the good work that you do. You lift people up when they need it, and you make their days even more joyful when they are happy. I am a mother of three, a wife of a fireman/paramedic, and a Junior at the AIC Nursing school. Life gets very busy on our end, but I know that we can do all things through Christ that strengthens us. I listen to your radio station every time when I drive to and from school. It helped me to organize my thoughts and to calm down before nursing exams, and directed me to pray for opportunities to share the Gospel (directly or indirectly) with people that I come across. God bless you. Keep up the good work. (I love the fact that sometimes you use the scripture during the broadcast - God's Word will never be spoken in vane.)

Kate from Southwick, MA I have been listening to the Q for over a year now, and I absolutely LOVE this station. When I wake in the morning, I pray to God and put on the radio or laptop. With work, family, school, and church, I have lots of stress on a daily basis, and thank God I have him too! I cannot imagine my life without God --- people can break your heart but God is always there to heal the pain, restore the soul, and lift the human spirit. Thank you!

Jolene from Enfield, CT Like far too many others, I suffer from depression. The other night, I was overcome by it (again), and spent hours crying asking myself why I bother doing anything since it doesn't really matter anyway. I hate myself for needing medication to feel normal. I hate myself for being unable to lean on Jesus more. Why can't prayer and time in his Word be enough? Why isn't he healing me? As I was driving home, sobbing, wishing I wouldn't wake up in the morning, "Who You Are" by Unspoken began playing on The Q. As I got home, certain lyrics were replaying in my mind -- "Come back from wherever you've been to the foot of the cross, to the feet of Jesus." "Every day you put your feet on the floor, you gotta walk through the door. It's never going to be easy, but it's all worth fighting for." I felt like Jesus was right next to me with an arm around my shoulder saying, "I still love you, no matter how ugly you think you are inside. I think you're beautiful and perfect. And no matter what your day brings, you have to keep fighting, and I'll be right here helping you to put one foot in front of the other." Thank you for choosing to play music that encourages people to keep putting their feet on the floor.

Ann from Somers, CT I am so thankful for your radio station! My son is a heroin addict and is currently incarcerated. He"s only 24 and has been struggling with this addiction for the past 7 years. I've been praying for him to surrender to the Lord and I believe he's finally on the right path. When I went to visit him recently he told me that he's been listening to your station. So I tuned in and was incredibly blessed. I feel connected to my son when I'm listening and the music is so uplifting. Thank you for being there for my son and for me!

MGB from West Springfield For 7yrs I had been running away from God. I had given my back to Him. One day, my cousin put on your radio station while riding in my car. At the time I had no intention to return to church, but I found myself listening to your station almost everyday after that. God was working in my heart and I didn't even know it.. For about a year I kept listening. There were times that i would start crying while listening to a song or a bible verse. You see, it was through listening everyday that God was healing my heart and breaking down walls built around my heart. Because of His mercy and love and thanks to your station I gave my heart back to Jesus on January 3, 2013. God continues to work in me everyday and I am happy to say I continue to listen to your station. My husband hasn't given his heart to Jesus yet, but I have been playing the station for him. I believe God will work in him through your station just like He used your station to work in me.

Anonymous from Agawam I listen to The Q 99.7 when I am down. The Q 99.7 is always there to lift me up. My personal favorite is "Whom Shall I Fear" by Chris Tomlin. Whenever I hear it I know that I should not fear because God is always with me. God is the one I should be looking to for comfort not anything else. The God of angel armies is always (not sometimes) by our side.

Melissa from Enfield I was told back in September that I was being laid off in the spring of 2013. So I have been looking around and been on some interviews. It def has been up and down since then and just gicing it to God each day. The perfect job was told to be by word of mouth. I dropped off my resume that next day after I was told. The company called me the next day and I interviewed with them Monday and then they called me to come in today. Just when I pulled in the song Blessings by Laura Story started playing. God was totally involved in that! He knew I needed to hear that song and I knew right then I landed the job. Hours later I was offered the job and the job is more then I ever thought possible. God is so good and blessed me beyong measure. I love the Q 99.7. I always hear a song I need to hear at such the right moment and it's always positive and uplifting and draws me more closer to God each day. You guys are great and your music and words are making eternal value for so many. Thank you!

Kristin from Chicopee I dealt with a lot of stress the past couple of days and when driving home Monday afternoon I turned the Q 99.7 on and Worn by Tenth Avenue North came on. I felt it spoke to me due to so much that I've been through in my life and I started feeling so much better. Then when a song by Kutless finished, a prayer was said by the DJ that day mentioning God's purpose and trusting in Him and I almost cried feeling God finally and has been hearing me all this time so I thank you so much for playing music that really touches the heart when you need it most. I also wanted to mention I'm currently a student at Holyoke Community College and was one of the many students evacuated on Tuesday afternoon and I wanted to also thank you for your radio station helping me keep my emotions under control as I was leaving and driving home afraid and fearing what was happening. It really brought me ease and comfort. Thank you again and God Bless You for all you do!

Leah from Chicopee The Q helps me to get through hour by hour with the inspirational songs and biblical quotes of the day. The songs and stories help to remind me that there is a higher being. I am going through a divorce, jobless, and struggling to get through every day life challenges. The Q inspires me and reminds me that I am not alone. My 9-year- old daughter loves to hear these words in our time of need and sings along which brings me great joy. We grow stronger with every song. Thank you so much for restoring my faith and hope!

David from Palmer Prior to last April I was lost and feeling as if my life did not have purpose. Since being shown what Jesus did for us through his life and his death I am now learning how to live life more full. I used to listen to other radio stations but now find that I do not change the radio station from Q 99.7. Daily you lift me up through prayer. I find myself not knowing how to pray sometimes, The Q 99.7 gives me the direction I need to pray multiple times a day. THANK YOU!!

Brendon from Springfield My 3yr old loves listening and singing along to the songs on your station. It's awesome to see how the music is impacting his life as he tries to sing the songs. Right now his favorite song is the Kristian Stanfill - One Thing Remains. Thanks for the impact your team makes in our family's life.

Keilys from Springfield I listen to the radio station everyday when I'm driving!! And I have a 8 month old daugther and when she listens to the song "YOU ARE" she starts to move her hands like she praising the Lord and I LOVE IT !!! I GIVE THANKS TO GOD EVERYDAY FOR HER, she's a miracle!!!

Vera from Springfield Every time I feel down and the feelings of depression, sadness, and insecurity start creeping into me, these songs lift me up. It's amazingly powerful how God can speak to one's heart through the words of a song. I remember being filled with tears, crying to God how difficult it is for me to go on any longer- carrying physical and emotional burdens of my life and the song "I will let you bend, but I won't let you break" was playing. It was God's touch! Sometimes I'm nearly giving up-losing hope and faith but He says just one more step and you'll be stronger and my tears turn into tears of happiness instead of tears of sorrow.

Katy I was feeling overwhelmed last spring. My mom had a stroke, and Iwas praying for her. I was also trying to keep the rest of my life in balance (work, family, schedules, etc) As I was driving from work to the hospital, the lyrics " God may let you bend, but He won't let you break"- were just what I needed to hear! That song continues to help me put my life into perspective, and it always gives me strength when I'm feeling weak. Thank you for continuing to provide daily inspiration. Your station is a vital part of each day for me!

Anonymous At the age of 14 I got molested by my dad's best friend, and I've stopped really thinking about it because I didn't like to think about it - who would? That is, until two weeks ago, I felt so miserable, I was angry, frustrated and sad. I actually felt like it was my fault when in reality I knew it wasn't. Meanwhile I was listening to the Q 99.7 and then the song "Forgiveness" by Matthew West pops up, and I remember reading what he said about that song, and how it was dedicated to people who have gotten raped before, and I suddenly realized what I must do. God wanted me to forgive the guy, and I honestly think I did.

Shari from Enfield I have inherited a harem of teens as part of a blended family- none of them knew Christ before now. They were all struggling in school & used to listen to nothing but gangster rap. Now they listen to your station & are hearing uplifting, positive messages. I am also proud to say that they are all also now pulling all A's in school. One is now in professional school at the top of the class & another just got student of the month at school. I am so happy to be supporting His cause & yours.

Lindsey from Chicopee I started listening to the Q 99.7 4 years ago. I stepped away and stopped listening a year ago.. and I felt empty.. recently I started listening again. And I realized how much I need God in my life and I got caught up in myself and being selfish. But one night I had a dream and realized I can't do anything without putting God first and having him lead me.. And now I have been listening to The Q 99.7 on my hour drive to work to Pittsfield and I put it on my work computer while I dispatch 911 calls.. I feel so lifted and happy and all around peaceful.. Thank you for being soo awesome and always playing awesome music. The radio station is soo lifting and makes me feel good 24/7.

Aimee from Easthampton I like listening to the Q 99.7 during my work day. I find that hearing Truth keeps me calm and able to focus on giving all that I can and holding strong to Jesus. I am so incredibly glad that there is a Christian worship station in the Pioneer Valley that's why I am happy to support it.

Angie from Holyoke Recently I have been confided to my home with a sickness that I have. I have not been able to go to work, out, or even to church. It's been real difficult for me but your station has help me to keep going. It lifts my spirit. While I wait to recover and go back to church your station has help me to keep calm and not grow desperate. Thank you for everything you guys do.

Donna from Hampden, Mass The Q 99.7 helps me EVERY day. Like so many others, my life is very busy and I spend a lot of time in my car. Listening to the Q 99.7 keeps me focused on the Lord and how blessed I am. Before I was aware of this radio station my mind would be scattered in a million different directions and I would be exhausted when I got home. Now, I usually pull in to my driveway singing and praising the Lord! I consider this station one of the most wonderful blessings in my life.

Jenice from Springfield The station has been helping me with my divorce. There are times when I feel like I can't keep fighting because I'm out of strength...other times when words come to me that my husband said to me that were hurtful...but the songs on The Q 99.7 speak to me letting me know God loves me and is helping me with this battle. Although I'm still being told certain things from this guy, God sees me differently (beautiful, strong & His)

Joanne from West Springfield Last October when we were without power for almost a week and quite cold also, my husband and I would listen to the Q 99.7 on a battery operated radio. It was very uplifting at a time when we really needed it. Thank-you so much!

John from West Springfield Recently I was in a bad place and considering taking my life. God told me to turn on the radio and I did, the song "Jesus Friend of Sinners" and that helped a lot.

John from East Longmeadow While going through a very public and painful divorce the music that I heard on the Q 99.7 reminded me of God's presence in my life, His healing grace and His greater purpose for me. While feeling cut off and abandoned by so many friends, the music helped me to feel the connection to a greater community than my own and in that way took some of the loneliness away. You folks are doing a vital service to the community in this area, more than you know; thank you.

Kate from Southwick Your station has given me great faith and hope during times of despair and sadness! It has lifted my soul more times than I can count!

Katie from Wilbraham I've been having trouble at school and listening to the radio helps me have a positive look on my day. I always have one of the songs that I heard on this radio in my head all day and it helps me get through school. I want to thank you for that.

Kyle and Karina from Westfield God has helped us during many tough times and helped us to rely on him more every day, with 3 children and both of us going through college and stress. I have recently finished and God has blessed me with a great job and a new home for our family. God tells us every day I have everything in plan for you and will always provide your needs. All of our financial needs were met during these times.

Laurie from West Springfield I was so grateful for the songs that were played the second full week in September. I was struggling on my job and there was encouragement with scripture throughout the day. Then I had even greater promises given to me in song and scripture the day my job changed~ thanks so much for your ministry outreach to keep my focus heavenward!

Lori from Springfield I dropped my youngest child off at college a couple weeks ago and my heart was breaking as I left there. The Q 99.7 was on the radio and I was praying that God would give me peace leaving her there, a peace that only God could give to a mother letting her child grow up. As I prayed this every song that came on the radio the entire two hour ride was encouraging me and that she was right where God wanted her to be. God gives me such a peace in my heart through the music you guys play.

Lynette from Chicopee After the death of my mom...it seemed each time I listened a song would come on that would let me know that God was near, He saw my tears and even though she was in heaven with Jesus, God knew my grief over losing her, even though I'd see her again.

Maureen from Springfield The Q 99.7 helps me every day, just knowing that my 11 year old son has a positive outlet with encouraging music! His alternatives are not so pleasant and it reinforces our weekly worship at church, I'm very thankful for the positive outlet he has through this radio station!

Megan from East Hartland, CT It's been very encouraging at college to go to theQ997.com website and have a source of truth and encouragement. At a very liberal school, listening to this music is a breath of fresh air, and just enough to push me forward.

Michael from Springfield It's not just the music, but those of you who play it and those who call in with a thankful heart. We all struggle with day to day life issues but it's great to hear how God works things out for those who cry out for him to move on their behalf. When the break through comes he is glorified and our faith is built up.

Noelia from Springfield I am a high school teacher and every day when I am coming from work I listen the music from the Q 99.7 and that is very helpful because help me to renew after a very hard day.

Olivia from Westfield I really love the song Who You Are by Unspoken. It's so encouraging and so true. I struggle with seeing myself as God sees me. I don't see myself as such. But this song speaks God's truth that I'm not too far from grace and He will always take me back no matter what.

Shannon from Chicopee I was devastated by someone that I thought was my lifelong friend. We had been inseparable for eight years, when out of nowhere, one day, she turned on me. Attacked my marriage, stole my friends, and mocked and ridiculed me. I had been grieved beyond anything I could imagine. So one day, about six months later,i was crying, i mean CRYING, out to God, in my car on my way to work, asking Him to help me to forgive her, because i just could not, and all of a sudden, on your station, a song started to play, i don't know the name, but a part in the song says, "Father forgive them because they don't know what they've been doin!" It broke me..in a good and awesome way. I knew that it was Jesus calming my storm. GOD BLESS YOU ALL :) You are literally, helping to save lives..please know that.

Vicky in Feeding Hills The Q 99.7 always plays the right song at the right time... I remember that one time I was feeling very discouraged and I turned on the radio and "Promises" was playing by Sanctus Real. That was an amazing moment for me. It just gave me so much hope and it was so uplifting. This wasn't the first time this happened, though. I feel like whenever I turn on the Q 99.7 the perfect song is always playing for me. I love the Q 99.7 and I just can't thank you all enough for what you do. God truly does work through this radio station and through you.

Ashley from Springfield Forgiveness by Matthew West is a song that reminds me of what I am called to do as a Christian-forgive and love like God does. Any time I hear a worship song I immediately feel closer to God. side note- My 5 1/2 year old son listens to the Q99.7 at bedtime and throughout the night, he really enjoys listening and in the morning tells me what the weather is going to be for the day. Thank you for giving me a radio station I feel good leaving on all the time: morning, noon AND night!

Chris from Holyoke I love Kari Jobe steady my heart. I've struggled with a seizure disorder for the last year and life has been tough since I lost my job. That song really speaks to me. I'm a mother of 6 children and having seizures has been trying on the whole family. We are in the process of losing our home and listening to your station gives me hope and strength that God is going to get me through all this.

Elizabeth from Springfield Steady my Heart by Kari Jobe and He Said by Group 1 Crew are songs that have really helped me. My mother was recently diagnosed with cancer, and it was a really stressful hardship for the entire family. But after listening to these two songs, I am sure that God is in control of everything that is going on. Jesus steadies my hurting heart daily and I know he will always keep his Word and we will never forget it. God will never send us where He can't take care of us. Listening to these two songs specifically confirm God's word over my mother's life!

Aimee from Easthampton I began listening to the Q 99.7 when I would become upset throughout my work day. I found that the music brought peace to me. I think listening to the many powerful songs played by the Q 99.7 facilitated my giving my life back over to Jesus Christ. So, I thank you.

Shona (Online Listener from Hungary) I just wanted to send a thanks to all who are involved in this ministry. I don’t know if you realize how big the impact you make. I am originally from the Franklin county area; but am currently overseas on an internship. But I’m so thankful that I’m able to still listen to your station online. It’s encouraging and a little bit of home all in one. Thanks so much for all your work you do. It may seem tedious some days. I know how that goes; but everything we do in His name for His kingdom is not in vain. Keep it up!

Chris My entire family including me had strayed away from God for years. We decided to walk on our own path instead of the path that God chose for us. My marriage was failing, I was losing my family and purpose in life. It was in the summer of 2011 that my wife was diagnosed with a seizure disorder of unkown origin. We were in the process of separating when she was diagnosed. I felt like my whole world was caving in. Never did I ever imagine that I would lose everything. I didn't know what to do. It was at my lowest point that I was driving and listening to the radio, looking for something that didn't remind me of her. I hit the seek button and stumbled across your station. "The Way" by Jeremy Camp was playing. It immediately hit me and I started sobbing. I knew there was only one way at that point to save my family. I recommitted my life to Jesus!! It was God, through the Q99.7, through that song, using you to reach out to me!! We were able to reconcile, perservere and save our family!! Your station has been such a blessing to our family. We don't listen to any secular music anymore, only the Q99.7. It has made such a difference and even my kids (6 of them altogether) know all the words to just about every song. We sing them together and it creates such a peace in our lives. We even just recently got back from the Cape and the one thing my family said they missed the most, other than our church family, was the Q99.7!!! You have no ideal how long people in our area have waited for a station like this. Keep doing God's work and never ever doubt what a blessing your station is to the communities you serve!!!

Karen from Agawam I listen to your station every morning on the way to work and every afternoon on the way home. The music is uplifts me. Recently I have had some pretty tough trials. In the midst of an illness, I lost my job.... And now my husband says we are overwhelmingly in debt and have no cash. We are broke. Those first several days after losing my job were really difficult.... Through all of this, the songs on your station have helped me remain faithful and trust in the LORD. I felt stronger just hearing "10,000 Reasons." I know that God has a reason for all this and he will turn all of this around for good. So, thank you Q997, from the bottom of my heart.

Lori from Agawam I listen to Nate Thomas in the mornings on my way to work. This morning I heard the still small voice of God through the Q 99.7 I was really upset by some events in my life recently and wondering why things were not going our way and why we keep having bad news fall on us. After I dropped off my son at school I just felt empty and sad. The Bible verse right then and there was about being sad and dissappointed and trusting in God. Then right after was a song about God not giving us more than we can handle. After that I felt a peace within me that I haven't felt in a VERY long time. It helped me through the day and gave me re-newed sense of hope.

Jake (Online Listener) The “Q 99.7” is all I listen to when I am at work. The music you play is amazing! The part I like the most is when you do a prayer. I love just taking a few seconds to reset myself and close my eyes and pray. It gives a relief that I am not the only one going through something, and we are all in this together. This radio station touches so many lives in so many ways.

Ana from Springfield Q99.7 has being a blessing and comfort during one if my saddest moments of my life. I just loss my dad last month and during this process I feel that I was about to fall but the song "Bless The Lord oh my soul" reminds me that no matter how difficult and dark life could be, my soul must praise his name. This song lifted up my soul and when I heard it that day,I started to sing it and between tears I felt God consoling me. Thank you so much, Q99.7!

Daniel (Facebook) Thank you Q for how God uses your station to minister, not only to those in western NE, but us down here in Tampa Florida. I moved down here with my wife and mom a little over a year ago from Greenfield Mass, where I discovered your station. A few weeks ago, my wife was diagnosed with cancer, and will be going through radiation and Chemo in the coming days. I felt led to turn to your station online, and am thankful I did. Thank you for the music you play, encouraging us during this time. Reminds us of God's faithfulness all the time, during good and challenging times. God bless all of you, and keep being led by the spirit of truth.

Corrine (Facebook) Something that 99.7 helps me with. I can go through my days in worship and in thanks. The lyrics, stories, interviews, commentary, and prayers are edifying...they breathe life...they keep my eyes on God and what He wants of my blip of time here. Thank you all so much for being a refuge for your brothers & sisters in Christ in this area. And, of course, for being light & salt to everyone.

Richard (Facebook) Thank you for The Q 99.7. Its where I found the Christmas Spirit last year, which had been lost for several years. I also renewed my relationship with Jesus, wanted to say thanks for a life renewed.

Erin from Westfield I first accepted Jesus when I was five and simply believed I was a Christian because I went to Church and said I did. When I turned eleven I felt something was still missing I didn't know what it was I was so confused. I didn't think God could love me and I felt ugly and sinful. I spent my time thinking suicidal thoughts and feeling God could never care about me. Then one evening, I felt the urge to pray. I cried out to God and asked him what he wanted me to do. At that moment the song "I Will Follow" by Chris Tomlin played on the radio. I knew this was the answer to my prayer and I prayed for salvation. I felt God change my life that evening and know he's never left my side since.

Marylin About two weeks ago I got in my car and turned on the station and Laura Story's song Blessings came on. I'm not sure what it was that made me start crying. I don't think I've ever cried the way I did in my car that morning. My husband and I have been going through a rough time trying to keep up with the mortgage that recently had gone up and not having health insurance The song came on and I realized the reason I was crying was because maybe everything we've been going through is a blessing in disguise, and all this time me praying and asking the Lord to help, but still kind of doubting him was the reason for my breakdown. It was almost as the Lord was talking to me through this song letting me know it's going to be ok, you're going to get through this. I cried because I thought how could I doubt him when in fact he's always found a way for my family and I. It's been two weeks and since then my relationship with the Lord is much stronger, I look to him for strength when I feeling down and overwhelmed and instantly I feel better. Now when I hear that song I smile and thank the Lord for all that I am going through because in the end I'm here because of him and I am blessed to know I have him in my life and know that with him all is possible only when you have faith and believe that he will be there for me.

Darren I thought that you should know that your station has touched my heart and brought me back to God. One day I was riding in my car along I-90 on the way to a doctor's visit. I have a long commute, from Westborough to Enfield, and radio stations fade in and out. I was channel surfing and wondering why God has put such hardships in my life. Finances are difficult, I'm losing my condo, and many more things had driven me down. I had stopped going to church, even though I was a regular choir member. And as I was asking this question, I found your station. And you were playing "Blessings" by Laura Story. Fortunately, I was coming upon a rest stop, because that song answered the question I had just asked. I pulled in and listened to the whole song with tears streaming down my face. And I felt something change in me. That night I posted a video of that song on my facebook page. And I started going to church again. A few weeks later, I was returning from picking up Chinese take-out, and it happened again. I had started listening to your station when it would come in for me, and "East to West" by Casting Crowns came on. I had to slow down quite a bit because I was so moved. When I got home I stayed in the car until it was over. Again, there were tears. I posted that video that night as well. Thank you for all that you do. I'm praying for you, and praying that at least one other person who is where I was can find you and be brought home. You've drawn in at least one prodigal so far.

Denise from Feeding Hills I was dying in my soul and I just didn't know. You showed me a way back to my home. One I'd never really known. Thank you, the "Q" For all you do. You saved me and my family too.

Christian from Feeding Hills The songs you play get me get through every single day with a better attitude and a better conviction. Without the Q 99.7 in my life, I would be heading down a very bad road. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the work that you do in this area and in my life.

Ronnie from Springfield (Facebook) As a result of circumstances that are beyond my control, (i.e. noisy neighbors) I have had to use headphones late at night. Your station has the most inspirational and upbeat Christian music, I have ever heard. Your station is a steady comfort to me on those nights that I find it hard to sleep, as well finding that it strengthens my faith.

Angie from Holyoke I was going through sooo much in my life. I felt so alone and wanted to give up in everything. Then at night I was praying to God to help me cause I couldn’t take it anymore. And the song Not Alone by Family Force Five came on the radio. And that song lifted up my spirit and I cried and felt Gods arms rapping around me. I knew then that I’m truly not alone. EVER. Thank you guys for all you do. Keep being great blessing to people’s lives. I love you guys God bless u all!!

Breanna from Ludlow I have really bad anxiety sometimes, and lately there have been a lot of little things stressing me out. As soon as I turn on The Q 99.7 it instantly calms me down. I'm so thankful for this radio station and everyone involved in it!

Dee from Agawam I have had moments as a business owner when I thought I should give up, but my faith in my Father just keeps me moving forward. This is what he wants for me, and I need to pick myself up and move on. Recently I was going through one of those moments, and flipped on the car radio. I heard the announcer say "Give it to God" so I did. I listened to the song (which I LOVE) My God's Alive and felt so much better. I gave it to God, and he is making my crooked path straight! Thank you! :)

Becky from Springfield Being a high school student, I am constantly surrounded by negative music, but with my 30 minute drive to school, I get to start my day with great uplifting music instead of the secular music on the other stations. The Q 99.7 is also a great opportunity to share my faith because all I listen to in the car is the Q 99.7.......so whenever I give rides to my friends; I get to introduce them to great Godly music with a message!

Danae from Hampden The Q 99.7 has helped me in a tremendous way recently by helping me to make Jesus the heart of my worship. For me, it was sometimes about who had the best voice or if I liked the song that was playing, but that's not what matters. I've realized that I worship is really all about Jesus and just giving my everything to him. I'm learning to humble myself before the Lord and really let go of everything else in order to seek and praise him. I just want say thank you to the q 99.7 and how you've helped me.

Galina from Chicopee The other day, I was driving to a Bible study and just thinking about my personal problems and financial status, and I was in tears from the stress that I was feeling. As I’m listening to the Q 99.7, I hear the words from the Bible "don’t worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about it self", being read. And I was overjoyed that God does take care of His children and that He will provide! Thank you for reading that Scripture!

Katy from Westfield The Q 99.7 has helped me with my autistic son. Sometimes I'm not sure if I am doing all I can for him- as I worry about his safety constantly. I was driving to work, and I heard the new song by Group 1 Crew- and the words "... He might let you bend, but He won't let you break." really spoke to me. I know that God won't give me more than I can handle, and it made me realize that God has entrusted me with this precious gift: my son. Thank you for playing such great music. I also love the daily Bible verses!

Kelly-Ann from Ludlow My family is having a lot of medical problems and drama with our teenager lately and listening to the Q 99.7 keeps me lifted up, further connected to the Lord and restores my soul every day! Thank you!

Linda from Otis Going through so much right now, financially, and my family feels broken at times. Your music and testimonies remind me how much I am blessed, and when things are broken, God takes all the pieces and puts them together and we become healed.

Lisa from Hampden My brother has a form of lymphatic leukemia and it has lifted me in spirit while hearing the music to pray in song for his healing from Jesus. I am so grateful to God for your wonderful music. Keep lifting and blessing His people. Love you guys.

Lynette from Chicopee The Q 99.7 has helped me because God has been working on many areas of my life. When I feel like I'm not good enough for God, or that He could never use me, there is always an encouraging song to lift me up and let me know He loves me, faults and all.

Megan from East Hartland, CT At college I don't usually get radio reception in my room, and when I'm at the library and need a break from studying, I go to the Q 99.7 live stream online for some encouragement and refreshment of Truth. Thanks for providing a source of hope and power.
