KJTM-LP/Lincoln (Tim FM) has hired Rachel Burling as its new development director. Tim FM continues to grow and this is the stations first full time employee.
Tim FM founder Brad Leggett tells HisAir, “Starting a station from scratch 3 years ago I have learned that even if you know the mission it’s important to pray for Gods perfect timing. Now is the perfect time and Rachel is the perfect person to take us to the next level God has for us.” “We have settled into a nice Christian Hits sound and now is the time to give others an opportunity to really share in the ministry’s mission of introducing Jesus to Gen Z and Millennials in Lincoln”
