This is the official blogsite of MSJ Radio! The station started as a little speck of an idea about 2 years ago. I was just starting to listen to internet radio when I was at work and I was fascinated with the idea of being able to design a station that would focus on a certain type of listener without trying to appeal to everyone. The fact was that I was constantly frustrated with the choices I had for music on the radio. As an Evangelical Anglo-Catholic I just couldn't find the blend of traditional hymns and service music that also incorporated the best of contemporary praise music. On top of that, I also wanted to hear stirring sermons that lifted my heart and drew me ever closer to God.
So here is my station! I'll be honest that I also hope that it will give people a taste of the kind worship that they could expect when they visit a church that is affiliated with the Missionary Society of St. John the Evangelist. I hope to include sermons from our far flung parishes as well as Daily Prayer and interviews with the clergy and laity of the MSJ.
My first playlist comes as a result of hearing one too many versions of "Let it Snow" on the radio. I hope you enjoy the mix of Advent and Christmas songs and carols that I've chosen. My guess is that you won't hear them on your local "We've been celebrating Christmas since Halloween" radio station. One thing is certain, you'll never hear "I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas" on this Radio Station.
