Every week Karen James gets an opportunity to work with a team of diverse and dedicated individuals who are committed to spreading hope, faith and positivity through the airwaves.
As the operations manager at TBC FM, James relies on the Holy Spirit and her team to carry out the mission and accomplish the vision of the radio station which is now celebrating 26 years. The staff is comprised of talented DJs, producers, diligent technicians, and administrators who play crucial roles in achieving collective success.
“At TBC, our devotion lies in delivering uplifting content that profoundly resonates with our audience and going beyond mere entertainment. We prioritize authenticity, integrity and community engagement, guided by Godly principles,” she said.
She noted that the content the team produces is firmly grounded in honesty and transparency. Based on the view that listeners are essential contributors, effort is generally made to actively involve them.
“Ultimately, our commitment to genuine, inspiring, and community-driven content reflects our profound connection with our audience, a bond we pledge to uphold faithfully with God’s guidance,” she assured.
James initially worked in the administrative office at the Tarrant Baptist Church before transitioning to the radio department. Over the years, she has experienced tremendous personal and professional growth.
“Operating a gospel radio station such as TBC demands a blend of creativity, strategic planning, technical proficiency, and effective leadership. This entails crafting engaging content, efficiently managing resources, staying updated on industry developments, and cultivating constructive relationships with stakeholders,” she explained.
As the team members give of their best, the media platform has proven to be a divine instrument that is being used to change lives daily.
“Our broadcasts are a divine source of solace, encouragement, and spiritual upliftment for listeners not only in Jamaica but also beyond its borders. Whether it’s offering comfort in challenging times, nurturing a sense of divine community, or igniting positive transformation, the impact of TBC transcends beyond the physical airwaves, guided by God’s grace,” the operations manager said.
