engaging with radio 1
I’m listening to radio 1 more. Pulses with energy. Cutting edge, new music at the fore. And reading ‘the gospel according to chris moyles‘. A big ego but talented, successful, 'powerful'. We believe in the resurrection, awesome power. The greatest radio station in the world. Gospels: who is the greatest? The least. How should the faith be lived out in a high-powered, competitive environment? ‘In new music we trust‘. Why not in God we trust? Why is God sidelined by popular culture? Or is he? Is it just the christian sub-culture, its sound and image, that parts of ‘the world’ including radio 1 reject? (they never played christian band delerious…) I’ve had a couple of mildly funny lines read out on jo whiley’s show. It feels like part of the way forward for engaging with popular culture: meeting the show where it’s at, joining the conversation, riding the wave.

You get songs of praise and the big questions dont you? you get thought for the day and religious columns in news papers, so just what exactly do you want?
BTW, Radio 1 plays some awful music and innane DJs. At least now, if someone asks me to say something good about radio 1, I can now say they don't play delerious.
BTW, I doubt they play dear Jesus by Jesse James much either.
