Area of expertise: Alcohol and Narcotic addiction education, information and resources. Take 12 Recovery Radio broadcasts on a wide range of topics that surround around addictions of many kinds and the solutions to those addictions through recovery.
Additional Information:KHLT Recovery Broadcasting12Radio.com is a faith based owned and operated Recovery Talk and Positive Music Internet Radio Station.
The world's only recovery radio station broadcasting recovery talk and positive music 24 hours a day with a unique recovery focused show seven days a week.
Monty Meyer (the Monty'man) is CEO and Executive Producer of K.H.L.T. (K-HALT) Recovery Broadcasting and the Take 12 Recovery Radio Shows.
With 28 years of experience working on the Pastoral Staff of local congregations and local drug & alcohol services Monty's work is primarily with those who have a desire to become whole through the process of recovery.
"The Internet is a community all it's own, and like any community it's population is filled to the overflowing with hurting and desperate people searching for a way out of drug, alcohol and other addictions. I believe that the only way to experience total recovery from this type of bondage is through accountability, education and a relationship with a power greater than ourselves, GOD.
Though there are some who experience a wonderful freedom from active drug and alcohol use without turning their will and their life over to the care of the Creator, many of them never completely recover. If they do it is only through the mercy of the God they have yet to know.
It is in the context of the original program of Alcoholics Anonymous, and the direction of a loving God that Take12Radio.com & KHLT Recovery Broadcasting are effective."
The format that Monty uses in all of shows come from deep within his spirit. He desires that all seeking recovery never die behind any type of addiction or alcoholism. But more importantly, Monty's heart is for the spiritual condition of his fellow man.
We at KHLT Recovery Broadcasting and Take12Radio.com know that we have more than a partial remedy for the addict and alcoholic. We have the solution in the 12 Steps that guide us to the complete and final answer. A loving God who expresses himself by His complete understanding of His creation, not our limited understanding of Him.
We hope all our shows will point the listener to the final and complete answer to our powerlessness. God.
Monty Meyer lives in Albany, Oregon with his wife Marsha and son Colin. His son Cameron is married to his beautiful wife Amber. They live in near by McMinnville, Oregon.
Monty works full time at the KHLT Studio.
KHLT Recovery Broadcasting is registered with the Corporation Division of the State of Oregon.
