August is upon us, which may mean back to the beach or back-to-school. Wherever you’re off to this month, be sure to listen to WRGN for these new songs. While you may not be familiar with the name Jordan Janzen, you’ve certainly heard his voice before. Jordan is from the Canadian band The Color, and he’s recently released his first single as a solo artist called “You Can Let Go.” This song looks at God’s forgiveness, and how we can forget that God doesn’t look back at our past sins.
I don't know about you, but for Heather and me, summertime is porch time! We eat our meals there listening to the birds chattering at the feeder; we relax there in the evening and watch the fireflies blinking in the trees.

Rich Vreeland, co-owner of Vreeland's Harley-Davidson in Bloomsburg, PA, joined us on Wake Up Right recently to tell us about The Old Made New Tour and to share the story of how God changed the entire direction of his life, starting with quitting his job and taking a cross-country road trip to help his brother detox. After opening a Harley-Davidson store in Bloomsburg, meeting his wife, and so much more, Rich trusted Christ through hearing the gospel during his time working with Nascar races through Motor Racing Outreach. Hearing and responding to the gospel changed his life and saved his marriage, and he began using motorcycling and racing as an open door for sharing the gospel.
