I am the living bread that came down from heaven.
Anyone who eats this bread will live forever...

The one factor that distinguishes Christianity from all other religions on the planet is Grace. All other religions promote works as the way to heaven, peace, nirvana…whatever.
Christianity is unique in that we are sinners “saved by grace through faith, and it is not our own doing, it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” - Ephesians 2:8
So what is grace? How does Christianity define it? How do we receive grace? Is there some ‘work’ we still need to do? Is there a limit to God’s grace?
This Sunday on ‘In Conversation’ the Rev. Ian Powell looks at all these questions and more as we delve into the defining feature of the world’s largest religion and through it encounter a God more loving and forgiving than we could possibly imagine.
Amazing Grace, In Conversation’s discussion topic this Sunday at 6pm on 1WAY FM.

Heroes of the Faith this week is talking about the life of Cam Townsend. Cam had a huge impact on the translation of the Bible into many languages and dialects.

OK so you might have missed the 1st coming but no matter....The 2nd coming is upon us...
Tonight on '33&1/3' you will have the unrivalled pleasure once more of hearing Ben and Alex delve into ‘The Reckoning’, Needtobreathe’s fourth studio album.
Described variously as a Southern Rock/Alternative/Country/Folk outfit the South Carolina quartet have produced half a dozen albums but perhaps none as ambitious as The Reckoning.
Embracing both sides of the band by emphasising brothers Bear and Bo Rinehart's emotional songwriting while trying out new sounds and musical approaches, The Reckoning evokes themes of wandering and longing in a timeless sound.
A somewhat eclectic record with an ability to effortlessly merge aspects of classic rock, blues, folk, pop, Springsteen inspired Americana, bluegrass, and country, The Reckoning has been described by various critics as, “a delightful hodge-podge of rootsy folk and crunching alternative rock”, “genre busting”, “a mix of heartland rock & roll and chest-thumping, rafter-reaching uplift” and “grandiose pop”.
It has, however, also been labeled “bombastic and corny”, “over sentimental stadium schlock” consisting of “vast gospel choirs and gaudy lyrics”, skating dangerously close to “Meatloaf/Josh Groban territory of puffery”.
So is this their magnum opus, a flawed masterpiece or merely an enjoyable blip on the Needtobreathe artistic timeline?
What do Ben and Alex reckon of The Reckoning? Join them for ’33&1/3’ Tonight at 8pm on 91.9 & 94.3 1WAY FM and find out.
