Hello everyone. I just wanted to take a minute to thank all of you faithful XR listeners and fans for making the transitions of the past few months mostly smooth.

Becoming the host of the show comes with a lot of responsibilities and a few speedbumps (remember I said mostly smooth) but all of you have been very encouraging with your comments on our ministry, the music we play, guest appearances, and, most especially, Martin, my new co-host.

I'm excited about what the next couple of months hold for XR. We'll be having bands and artists such as Hawk Nelson, KJ-52, The Almost, The Letter Black, Abandon Kansas, and I'm OK You're OK on the show and will be hosting House Of Heroes, Runaway City, and Stria in concert on November 14th at Peace Haven Baptist Church in North Wilkesboro.

Most of all though, I'm excited about our show's impact on our community for Christ. After all, that's why we do what we do.

All for His glory,
Dave

Pillar's Rob Beckley joins Martin and me tonight for an interview about the band's brand new, just-released CD "Confessions." Tune in at 10pm for your chance to win a copy and to hear from Rob. www.myspace.com/pillar.

Webcam will be up so click on the ustream link to view the show live and participate in interactive chat with us and other listeners.

We have some great new music to share with you tonight. I could tell you about it here but what fun would that be? I like building up the anticipation!

Starting next week, both Crossroad Radio (Fridays at 10pm) and Crossroad Light (Saturdays at 9pm) will be broadcasting live from the Gazebo at the Dixie Classic Fair. I always love doing the show from the Fair. I think it has some sentimental value for me since my first show was there three years ago. Can't wait to see what new candy they've learned to deep fry within the past year. Last year, it was Reese's Cups. Can we possibly hope for a Heath bar this year?

More importantly than the deep fried stuff though, we get the chance to hang out with you and to share the word of God through our words and the music we play in a setting where a lot of people who wouldn't otherwise hear it are going to be around. Pray that XR (and WBFJ) shines the light of Christ at the Fair and that God uses us to speak into the lives of those who come by the Gazebo to talk or just to hang out.

God bless,
Dave

Last week we had John Cooper of Skillet on to talk about the band's new CD "Awake" and this week we want to give you the chance to win your very own copy! But, at the risk of sounding like a Ginsu knife commercial, wait there's more! We're going to make it a prize pack by including a copy of "Escape" from the new band Nine Lashes who will be on next week's XR! Go ahead and get 336-777-1893 on your speed dial now (hey, go ahead and program it in your phone - trust me, you'll want to with all the great prizes coming our way soon) and listen for the cue to call on tonight's show. Join us live on ustream by following the link Martin's posted below.

If you're free tonight, come out to Firehouse Ministries in Mount Airy around 6:30 and join me as I host a CD Release party with my good friends in Miracle Made before tuning in to XR at 10pm. Also, tomorrow night Worship Alive, our in-studio guests from a couple of weeks back will be putting on a free event (with food) at Haymore Memorial Baptist Church in Mount Airy for local and area youth. Go and have a good time while worshiping our great God and tell them that you heard about it on Crossroad Radio!

Good things are happening in September on XR. I've already mentioned Nine Lashes. September also brings us Pillar, Thousand Foot Krutch and Hawk Nelson. And on the 11th, Runaway City will be joining us live in the studio. If you haven't heard of Runaway City maybe you've heard of some of the bands they used to be a part of - Chasing Daylight, Fighting Instinct, and Layden - all of which have been in the XR studio with us at some point. So we know the guys and know they're all about bringing you great music with a focus on Christ. And their new stuff is incredible. Be sure to check it out.

God bless,
Dave
