We've Launched a New Show, Truth Sparks, Featuring Short Insights from the Bible

Press Release - Phoenix, AZ - April 17, 2026

Porchlight Family Media announces the launch of its new podcast, Truth Sparks, a short-form show designed to deliver quick, meaningful insights from Scripture.

Each episode brings together multiple Bible verses around a single theme, offering listeners a clear and accessible perspective in just a few minutes. With the tagline, “little flashes to ignite everyday faith,” the podcast aims to provide brief but impactful encouragement for the daily Christian walk.

"This podcast is actually an idea that has been a long time coming," says host J.D. Sutter. "For years, I was an editor for a Christian publication, and during that time, I wrote dozens of short articles on various biblical topics. The publication came to an end well over a decade ago, but I still have many of these articles in my files. Over the years, friends and family have asked me to collect them together and share them, but I never got around to it. Until now."

Originally conceived as a blog to publicly share this archive of articles, Truth Sparks then grew into the idea of recording audio versions to post along with the text. From there, it was decided to go ahead and distribute it as a podcast to make the content more accessible to a wider audience.

"We're aware that people's lives are increasingly busier, and the likelihood of adding another long-form podcast to their rotation is low," J.D. adds, "so that's why we thought it was a great time to offer a short-form program where one can get a little inspiration from the Scriptures in under 10 minutes."

While there is no set release schedule at this time, new episodes are expected to be released at least monthly. Truth Sparks with J.D. Sutter is now available on all major podcast platforms, including Spotify and Apple Podcasts, as well as on the Truth Sparks website.

Network News Update

Things have been busy as always here in the Radio CSS Media studio. It has been a very long time since I have taken the time to write you and let you know all that's going on here, and for that I apologize. We have been working hard on the websites for the various shows in order to make them a little easier to navigate and locate the info that you’re looking for. Hopefully those efforts have been successful!

Before I share the latest news, I want to first say a huge THANK YOU for your support via our Amazon affiliate link, our Lamplighter affiliate code, and our other various partners. We deeply appreciate it when you show how much you enjoy our content by you’re willingness to do business with our partners. Every bit helps move us forward in our efforts to create better content and to create more of it as well.
Now let me share some news with you. I am excited that Audio Theatre Central will be celebrating its 2nd birthday in just a couple of months! We have some awesome things coming up in the next few months as well. We are working on securing interviews with some of the top names in the family friendly audio drama world. I’m not prepared to share who they are just yet, but I know you’ll enjoy hearing from them. These are actors who are unbelievably talented and who have been entertaining thousands for many years.

We also have some great content coming up for Bookworm Banquet. Nicole and I will be reviewing a novel by Robert Whitlow that we’re excited to share with you. Also in an upcoming episode we’ll be telling you about a great book from a self published author who will most likely be joining us on the show as well. By the way, if you haven’t had a chance to hear our discussion with award-winning narrator, B.J. Harrison, in Episode 6, I highly recommend giving it a listen. We had a great time talking with him about classic literature.

As for Christian Music Digest, I have some interviews coming soon for this show as well. We had the opportunity to chat with some very well-known and talented artists in the industry and I can’t wait to share them with you.

So what to do think about the content we have been producing and/or the upcoming news that I’ve shared? Do you have any questions for me? Please let me know. You can email feedback@radiocss.com or call and leave a message on our feedback line at 623-288-2770. Or post your comments below.

New Wall in the Studio

Hi Everyone!

We just redecorated a wall in the studio and I wanted to share it with you. In the center is the network logo surrounded by some of the autographed items from some of the cool people we've been able to meet.

We will be adding to this wall as we locate all the items. Special thanks to my wife, Kristin, for taking on this project for me!
