Welcome WCRY

Lee's aspirations to be in broadcasting started early in life partly due to the success of his older brother (Jeff Davis - WLS Chicago) Lee started in radio in 1977 and has spent the last 40 years using the gifts and drive the Lord has giving him to express the hope and power of Jesus Christ. Lee says " when God called me to Christian Radio in 1984 I knew He had a better plan for me than I could ever have for myself".

Lee has run radio stations as Program Director, Operations Director and General Manager for the past 25 years of his career and is currently General Manager and also holds down the morning air shift on Today's Christian Country/Legacy Broadcasting.

Jeff started his career in Southern California last century in 1981.  His actual career began a few years earlier when he was a kid, in his room, pretending to be a DJ, mixing music and recording comedy for his friends and family.

After a brief stint at broadcasting school, he got his first radio job, overnight disc jockey at "Hot-Hits! KS-102!" in San Diego. While there he would run into the morning DJ each day after his shift and began helping with the morning show.  That led to producing the morning show, which eventually led to his own morning show in Santa Barbara, Ca.  Jeff wrote and produced so much comedy each day for his show that Hollywood took notice.  Jeff became a writer for over 500 morning shows nationwide with Premiere Radio Networks.  He is still a free-lance writer for them today.

While still doing live, local radio, Jeff got a job offer to come to Spokane Washington and it was off to God's country!  He and his family fell in love with Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and knew the Lord had brought them there for a reason.  He thanks God everyday that he's left the craziness of California.

Today Jeff makes his home in Idaho with his wife and four grown children.  Jeff says, "I've worked in radio my whole life, finally I work in radio MINISTRY!  It's the biggest blessing in my life."

He can be heard each morning as a part of the Jeff and Lee Morning Thing, right here on Today's Christian Country.

As a kid growing up in Southern California, the dream of going into broadcasting was planted at a young age! I was a huge fan of the LA Dodgers' Hall of Fame announcer Vin Scully and I just knew that one day I was going to take his job as the Dodger play-by-play announcer! History will show - that didn't happen!! But God did have other plans for me and broadcasting dream remained alive!

In my teenage years, I started by doing public address announcing for our local Little League, then moved on to study Communications/Broadcasting in college and getting my first on-air work at the local radio station doing rock and roll and then, R and B.

From there God took me in another direction but I eventually made my way back into broadcasting. Later, I took a job as a sports announcer at an all-news station; then moved to a Classic Country radio station where I held the Sunday morning slot and developed a show called "God's Country", a mix of Country and Southern Gospel music.

I am truly blessed to be part of God's vision for Today's Christian Country! I was involved in helping to launch Contemporary Christian Music station, KLRD, in Yucaipa, CA. Not realizing back then what God had started, KLRD went on to become the mothership of what is now the AIR 1 radio network. I believe that God can and will do the same thing with Today's Christian Country as we share the love of Jesus to the country music world!

I have always loved music. I remember back in my home state of Indiana as a young boy, when I didn't feel well, knowing it would soothe me, I would ask for music to be put on the old tube radio. Interesting how some sixty years later, I find myself still being comforted by music from a radio! Here at Today's Christian Country, it is my pleasure to be hosting the evening show 7:00pm-midnite Sunday thru Friday. The time between songs in our powerfully anointed playlist is filled with giggles and grins and lots of scripture to help bring the point home, that we are a Christian Country radio station that is not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

God has been very kind to me, allowing a rich past of experiences to help flavor my friendly banter. Having been a poet and lyricist from 1962 on, I began playing harmonica in 1971, while in the US Air Force, the same year I asked Jesus to be my Savior. Toured with Blues and Rock bands for many years and in 1976 my guitar partner, Robert "Doc" Haley, and I were part of five folks who founded channel 10 public access television in Palm Springs, mainly to help promote our band.

In the 80s & 90s I was founding pastor for Calvary Chapel Coeur d'Alene, where The Treasure House Ministry was produced and aired locally on public access television and ACN radio. Visual arts have also been woven into my life as I am an internationally collected local artist and gallerist (Steven A. Scroggins Fine Art). My tag line on my art business card reads "Every Mark Matters!". I think that about sums it up for me. It is my deepest desire that all I say, do and think, every mark, should bring glory to my God! Oh, and we all need to smile a lot!

Just an ordinary day, everything went as planned, I got home, was watching TV with my wife and family, while just sitting and relaxing after a long day I suffered a stroke that nearly ended my life. But thanks to excellent health care and prayers from around the world. I survived the lifesaving surgery and months of rehab. No longer able to fulfill my duties as a senior Software engineer at at a local Company, I had to leave and go on Disability.

On a drive coming back from southern Idaho I felt God's call to get involved in Christian radio in the Spokane area. A few weeks later at a gospel concert I met the staff from Today's Christian Country. I asked to see the studio and started volunteering. Now I have a new job and a place to call home. I love Psalms 37:5, "Commit your future to the LORD! Trust in him, and he will act on your behalf. Serve him and he will take care of you!"

A fan of music, and an adherent to radio since youth, Ben enjoys the opportunity to make his home on the air-waves of Today's Christian Country. Ben brings a love for the Bible, a background in philosophy, and a nostaldia for the great outdoors together in his radio show, to try and serve listeners who needs some inspiration and mental stimulation to stay sane in this world.
