Bland, radio host personality and general manager of Gospel 860 AM, and president of Henri-Delta Company, LLC, a Christian-based business.

“This is ministry in motion,” Bland continued. “Gospel 860 AM will be like a river running through the desert, helping to quench the thirst of so many who need encouragement. We feel enormously blessed that God is using us as His vessel to meet this need.”

Bland said Henri-Delta’s vision is to use the station as a launch pad to meet spiritual, emotional and material needs in the community. Gospel 860 AM’s format in the near future will consist of:
