Christian Outdoors Joins Salem Media’s LifeAudio Network

Salem Media reveals that “Christian Outdoors Podcast” – hosted by outdoor writer, author and speaker Pete Rogers – joins the company’s LifeAudio Christian podcast network. Salem notes that “Christian Outdoors Podcast” was “created to give outdoor enthusiasts a platform to talk openly about their faith – something imgRogers found largely absent in mainstream outdoor media.” Tommy Lynch serves as director of content acquisition for LifeAudio and he says, “LifeAudio is thrilled to welcome Christian Outdoors to the network – it’s a whole new niche for us, opening the door to hunting, fishing, and outdoor content rooted in faith. It’s the kind of authentic conversation that resonates in trucks, on job sites, and around campfires, and we can’t wait to see where it takes us.” Rogers comments, “‘Christian Outdoors’ is excited and humbled to be the newest member of the LifeAudio Network. Joining this respected team will enable us to continue to reach folks and share our passion for the outdoors and Jesus in one place. Being part of LifeAudio will enable us to reach more believers with the good news of Jesus.”
