Upon graduation from SSU, King relocated to her hometown of Sacramento, Ca., where she established The Force Radio, an online station originally designed to encourage college students through music while carrying a message of hope.  In 2011, The Force Radio launched as an official Internet radio station by the end of that same year in King’s small, downtown Sacramento apartment.  Following the launch of the station, King moved back to Savannah, Ga., which is now the established location for The Force Radio. Currently, with the same vision, she aims to empower more than just college students, but also her local community through the blending of Christian music genres and “Off Top Topic,” a topic discussion segment. The Force Radio has branched beyond the web by hosting outreach and community events throughout the city of Savannah, such as Stop the Violence (STV) Campaign, Hope for One Golf Tournament Fundraiser, Gospel Skate Night, Colorblind March, Summer Rock, and Take the Night. In addition to King’s accomplishments, King is also the founder of Savannah’s very own LVD2 , which is a youth mentoring program that caters to at risk children.  Along with LVD2  youth outreach program,  King is the host of a vocational program provided by The Force Radio, which offers multimedia trade skills to those same children.

Chris is a native of Augusta,Ga but relocated to Savannah,GA in 2004.That same year He met is now wife,Larinda King ( better known as King Lady) in college at Savannah State University. Chris served as the Men’s President in the campus ministry that Larinda (King Lady) founded on their campus, Commissioned 2 Love (C2L). Radical and excited about Christ this group of young believers made a hug impact on their local campus and even spread to other campuses. The ministry grew larger as many people kept supporting C2L and would meet off campus as a way to continue fellowship. Out of this fellowship blossomed a Church, EndTime Commission, where Chris served as youth pastor under Larinda, and help found a inner city youth mentorship program in Savannah called Life, Virtue, Destiny (LVD2) for young men and women. In 2008 Chris proposed to Larinda(King Lady) as they took on the responsibility of Co-Pastoring this young church together.After marrying in 2009 they relocated to her hometown, Sacramento,CA, to help their pastor build the ministry. In 2011,the couple was invited out to Scottsdale, AZ by for a video shoot for a college religious freedom campaign. King Lady had the idea of producing a radio broadcast for them as a sample of something they could do to promote their campaign.Based on a sample show Larinda did for a company, She believed that God confirmed to her her role in media and Chris was in full agreement. Even though the company turned down the sample he was convinced that it was the direction God was pointing them. Upon returning to Sacramento The Force Radio w/ DJ King Lady launched in the 2nd bedroom of their small apartment in Sacramento, CA with an iMac and Yeti microphone. “ I wasn’t sure what we had yet but I told her that she was made for this, and i believed it!” So it began, recording shows and sending them back to the home base in Savannah. The following year they returned back to savannah to rebuild the church they left and began to build the team they have today. Now, Chris oversees all areas of the Force Radio and Flight of Promise Media Group as the General Manager and serves as a broadcaster for an upcoming sports radio program “ League of Our Own” with Roland Jackson( Big Ro).
