91Èȱ¬

To mark 100 years since the 91Èȱ¬ first broadcast a service of worship, Pam Rhodes joins a packed congregation at St Martin-in-the-Fields on Trafalgar Square and hears inspiring stories from some of today’s Christian broadcasters.

That groundbreaking first service was held at St Martin-in-the-Fields in 1924, and Pam joins the current vicar, the Rev Dr Sam Wells, to reflect on how it was received – for some it was a thing of wonder, others were outraged!

TV writer and regular contributor to Radio 2’s Pause for Thought, Paul Kerensa, takes Pam to a lesser-known landmark from the early days of religious radio. And radio DJ and presenter of the 91Èȱ¬â€™s Daily Service, Swarzy Macaly, shares how she became a Christian and why she’s passionate about sharing stories of faith on air.
