I've just found crossrhythms radio station on broadband. What a shame its not available nationwide on the radio1 Fabulous to hear a balanced mix of great music from a christian perspective. We must keep praying that God opens up more opportunities for christian radio stations to broadcast on media that everyone has access to.

I would love to have a Christian radio station to listen to on the way to work in the car. Even more importantly something for my children (teenagers) to listen to instead of the worldy chit chat on some of the local and national radio stations available in our area. I have heard some very rude & sexist comments on stations aimed at young people. Some of the lyrics of the music played are also encouraging a negative youth culture. I am confused as to the logic of allowing this type broadcasting and not allowing Christian broadcasting. We will pray about this. Is there anything else we can do ?

I stopped having the radio on when my young girls started singing the lyrics "I'm a sex bomb" and "I'm just a teenage dirtbag" Some stations can have such freedom to ridicule, gossip, make sexist remarks, airwave lyrics that are depressing and sexual! I want to hear decent wholesome talk and uplifting and encouraging music which will feed me spiritually. There is fantastic Christian music out now that will appeal to many. The worldly music industry is no doubt in fear of losing the edge on their market.....I know that Christian Radio will make a difference to peoples lives.

I was just browsing to see if there were any Christian Radio stations that could
be listened to on FM/AM/MW. I had no idea of the ridiculous legislation until I read your article. Has there been any progress since it was written? I will pray about this from now on.
