Legendary Radio Personality Doug Henderson
I am so blessed! We often wonder, if we're doing the right thing, or, am I on the right path. I've learned that God will allow us to meet the person that we have long admired from afar as a sign to tell us, yes, you're doing great; keep going!
Well just recently, God has allowed me to meet that person - Legendary radio personality Doug Henderson. In meeting Doug, God has let me know, several things: 1 - That He heard the prayers of a child and answered them. 2 - That I am on track for his plan for my life.
As a youth, I had a severe stuttering problem. I could not complete a sentence. I couldn't ask for water, speak to girls, talk in public, and the list goes on.
Like most in Philly, I listened to WDAS, however, I listened for more than the music. I wanted to be Doug Henderson. I wanted his voice - an alluring sensuous rhythmic baritone that captivates all who hear. When Doug speaks, the world listens. I thought, if I sounded like that, people would listen; I could get a job; I could get a girl friend; I could do radio...
Doug was very humble at our meeting and he's a real people person, professional, easy to approach, entertaining and funny. On the other hand, I felt like a kid, meeting his favorite superhero. Thank you Mr. Henderson, you have significantly impacted my life. Your voice, freed mine.
Today, I have my own voice, I have worked for two radio stations, I speak in public very often… and people listen.
Thank you Jesus.
Thank you Doug.
