Hi, this Pastor Roland. I recently joined the outstanding line up of Christian radio programming on KDIA 1640 AM, the Light for San Francisco. My program airs every Saturday evening at 7:00 PM.
It is a great program. On my radio program last night, for example, I talked about dating, courtship and what qualities to look for in a man or woman.
Be sure to listen in every Saturday at 7 PM.
But first I want to keep it simple and tell you exactly what services we have.
This is a full service Pastor Chat. I have free chat for good people around the world who can't afford anything or who just don't know a pastor they feel comfortable asking a question. I also have podcasts of radio lectures and sermons.
For those who have a big issue they want to talk about, i have counseling by Skype, phone, email or live chat at Liveperson.
I honestly believe I have the finest personal pastoral service on the web today. I have been counseling and coaching people with life and relationship issues for 23 years. I have a Doctorate in Pastoral Psychology and am the author of 14 books.
But even more importantly, I care about people. I care so much I will tell you the truth. I care so much I have been doing this as a volunteer for 23 years.
How it all started.
It all started with my radio program. One day I walked into the offices of KEST Radio in San Francisco and inquired about buying air time. I don't know why I did, just intuition or inspiration, I guess. I never had been on the radio before. The people at the station were helpful and I went ahead and bought some air time and before you know it, I was behind a microphone for the first time in my life.
I've been on the air ever since. I talked to people about being more forgiving, about being patient with their kids, about how to start letting go of anger.
I saw that people need help calming down and becoming objective and unemotional. People need to be able to stand back and look calmly at what is bothering them. But most people can't. They are lost in thinking, constantly pulled on by distractions, and generally lost in a drug induced or emotional fog.
This makes them confused and anxious when they see how out of control they are. Unfortunately medication and self medication only increase the fog and lead to other issues too. They try anything from yoga to exercise to various groups, but mostly these are palliative care.
These things help a little, even a lot, but are they not THE answer. These external remedies relieve symptoms but don't solve the cause. And, unfortunately, these things also tend to be distractions from the heart of the matter.
Like I said, I saw that people need help calming down and looking at issues objectively. So I took the kind of Christian mindfulness meditation that helped me, put it in my own words, and began to send it to people for free or a small donation (back then people did not download from the computer like we do now - I sent an audio cassette tape).
Next I saw that people wanted some supplemental reading material - so I began to write. My first book was entitled Becoming You. Then came Finding the Discover Path. Then I wrote Relationships- the Key to Life. None of these books are available at this time. But I do have many books, which incorporate the material in my first books, available on Amazon and other places.
So here I am, a volunteer pastor to the world. I have imitators, but no one else comes close.
My avatar is a great guy and he means well but he is a bit long winded and doesn't always get right to the point. So before he takes over, I would like to get a word in edgewise.
Here's what we've got
Free chat (and now Customer Service too!)
Okay, just what is free chat?
Free chat is click on the icon in the right sidebar (Pastor is in! or Got a Question Instant Answers!). Ask a quick question. Find out our hours or services. Ask a life question. Ask a Bible question. Make an appointment to talk. Find out if online coaching or counseling is right for you.
If I am here, you can ask me a question and have a dialogue with texting. Cool!
Send me a text question by email. I can't answer all questions, but hey, I can answer some of them. (you must be 18. No emergencies)
Free podcasts of my weekly radio program. There is a lot of noise out there. Lots of words and lots of palliative care. I tell you the truth. If I do say so myself, it is very refreshing.
Meditations, meditation, meditations. Stressed? Confused? Nervous? Lost touch with your intuition and creativity? Got baggage from the past? I've been developing these meditations for over 22 years.
"Pray for me." I answer prayer requests free. In fact, I LOVE pray requests. I personally read every prayer request and pray for you.
I'll send you a blessing if you need one and ask for one. Just tell me what you want to have blessed.
Angry or upset all the time. I've got resources and meditations and books too If you have issues with emotions (like anger, unhappiness, resentment, fears, anxiety), helping people cope and conquer negative emotions is what I've been doing for over two decades.
If you are stressed out and would like to try a short 5 minute Meditation Stress Fix
right now I have made it FREE
Relationship issues, marriage issues, courtship issues? I've got a site just for you and books too.
Okay, the free chat is obviously free. The free podcasts of the radio program are obviously free. How about the rest?
The blog posts and articles are all free. The short versions of my meditations are free. The long version cost something (but it is worth it)
And . . . you can look inside my books free at Amazon.com
Last but not least - if you are looking for pastoral counseling or coaching, we have that too (at Liveperson).
If you don't mind paying a per minute fee (it helps me pay for radio time so I can help more people), Consult with me by phone, skype, email, or live texting at my Liveperson virtual office.
Call me at Ingenio. It's toll free from anywhere in the U.S. to connect or schedule an appointment. Once you reach me (the first 3 minutes are free! and then it is pay per minute. Just look for the telephone icon in the right sidebar.
If you want confidential and anonymous consultation with me, then call me at Liveperson. Your call comes to me from Liveperson, and I don't know your number.
No computer, or want to call me from while you are taking a walk in the park? No problem. You can reach me at Ingenio to schedule an appointment toll-free by dialing 1-888-INGENIO followed by my personal extension: 04278130
Broke, can't afford a penny? No problem. Here's why. Other people have already paid for yours! They contacted me through Liveperson, Ingenio, or they sent me a small donation to help me keep going.
One of the reasons they use my Liveperson, Ingenio services or send me a donation at Paypal is because they know that I will use the money to help others.
So just send me an email and and tell me your issue. i will answer by email or we can even schedule a free texting session. If you need help, just ask. We have all been there. I have been broke too. If with my help you get control of your emotions, start find your spiritual roots and clean up your life, then God will have already blessed you, and you can help me at that time. So don't be too prideful to ask for help.
Who am I. I am a regular guy who is committed to helping people wake up to the spiritual side of life. I do not lay an dogma on people. I wish for people to see for themselves what is true. Of course, I'm of the Christian persuasion - but only because I see for myself. That is why I give other people the space to hear what I say, and then draw their own conclusions in their own time and space.
I like to help people let go of resentment and shed the baggage from the past. There's a whole new world waiting for you out there, if you can get out of being lost between your ears and wallowing in negative emotions. Blessings!
Pastor Roland
