About Us

The dream of Joy Christian Radio started on the morning of January 1, 2000 around their dining room table as the founder, Ed Smith presented to his family the vision to build a radio station and to stream our broadcast online.   26 years later, Joy Christian Radio now owns and operates 2 FM terrestrial radio stations and maintains an Internet radio station.

Joy Christian Radio is also involved with other ministries in our local communities.  Our annual Nursing Home Christmas Card ministry is a tradition that has been ongoing for well over a decade now, reaching out to nursing facilities and similar type organizations during the Christmas season.

  We also sponsor Bible Studies, “Zoom” conferences and a “online pastor” service for churches who have difficulty securing a pastor.  Bible Studies in 2026 will include: “Spiritual Formation,” taught by our ministry partner, Dr. Sam Bruce.  We will also teach the “War Room” Bible Study based on the movie by the same title.  There will also several other studies as the interest is made known to us.  To sign up, or to get more information, just contact us (form below) and let us know of your interest. 

We are expanding our Intercessory Prayer group to reach more people than ever this coming year! We believe in the POWER OF PRAYER!  Send your prayer requests or your desire to join our prayer list and group by using the contact form below.

Joy Christian Radio has a passion for missions at home and around the globe!  We support local and international missions with missions groups such as Inspiracom (a radio mission along the Mexico / US Border) and Wantak Radio Light (a Papua New Guinea missions radio group); plus many more.   So, when you support us, you are helping to support these groups as well!  Every dollar you give to Joy Christian Radio goes towards missions; either via our organization or those we partner with.

Joy Christian Radio reaches into countries all over the world via the Internet.  We have heard from listeners from obscure places such as China and the Ukraine.  We have heard from listeners in the UK, South Africa, Germany, South America, Brazil, Belize and many more.  When you join our family of Sustaining Supporters, you become part of the “life blood” that keeps our stations on the air.   Plus,  your support helps us, in turn, to support the missions groups we mentioned.
