2010-02-07 Planet of Praise: Spiritual Songs in the 21st Century
Author: ABC Radio National
Sun, Feb 07, 2010
Religion and music have always walked hand in hand. However these days sacred music isnīt what it used to be. In the 20th century, religion went pop. From gospel to soul music, onto rock and rap, a river of spiritual song began to flow whose source was sacred, but whose expression was definitely secular. In this program weīll follow that river of spiritual song into the new century, where religion and popular music have come together in unexpected ways: where Muslim hip hop is a growing force and Africans testify for Jesus through rap; where Praise & Worship rocks the house, and electronic hymns pulse through the ether; where Buddhist masters give wisdom teachings to the beat of a drum sequencer. Itīs a global phenomenon and itīs coming to a religion near you.

2010-01-17 The labourers are few
Author: ABC Radio National
Sun, Jan 17, 2010
Catholic priests in Australia are overworked and in increasingly short supply, and this has prompted some dioceses to recruit clergy from overseas. But how ethical is it to take priests from countries such as India, where they may be needed? Is it time for the Church to look at more radical solutions?
