Share your thoughts and join us tomorrow from 7AM on Inspirational Breakfast.

Chris Martin reportedly grew up in the church and has long written lyrics infused with biblical imagery. Coldplay's new song 'We pray' articulates a spiritual hunger that many resonate with, says Robin Ham. It's time to point them to the one who hears those prayers.

WOULD IT BENEFIT CHRISTIAN STUDENTS IF SCHOOLS WERE MOBILE PHONE FREE ZONES?

With online bullying and p**n addiction, plus distractions from school work, would it be good for Christian parents to get behind encouraging the ban of mobile phone use in schools, or can you see a benefit to them being used during school hours? If parents are called to train a child up in God's ways, would this help protect them?

Airing your thoughts from 10am this morning. Would love to know your thoughts on the advantages and disadvantages of young people using mobile phones in a school environment.
