While raising two sons as a single mother, KVNE was constantly reminding us all of a larger picture. This station breathed life and love into us during many hard days. There is no doubt the Jesus has His hands on the music and compassion dispensed hourly. So many days I received truth from various artists and musical styles. One thing that never changes is KVNE’s dedication to God’s word played in the music… the very BEST! Love the heart and people behind this station!! ### 5/5 — What a great music app! *2023-12-01, version 20.8* I really enjoy listening to this app! It’s a great source for positive messages and music.

I've implemented it in my times of anger and it provides me with a calming peace too. If you think "I just can't stop listening to my other music" give it a try. You won't have a desire to go back to the other. ### 5/5 — Real Encouraging music *2023-09-21, version 20.8* With the world the world the way it is now days this app helps me get through the day.
