This week on the show

MON 14 MAY: John's guest to kick off the week is none-other-than the Bishop of Newcastle, the Rt Rev Martin Wharton. As Premier launches its new North East office to help reach out to those in the region, Bishop Martin will be giving an insight into the challenges facing the area and how the church has been getting involved. Plus we'll be getting a peek into the man behind the cassock and finding out what he gets up to on his days off.

TUES 15 MAY: It's Topical Tuesday as John picks another story hitting the headlines for you to get your teeth into to debate. We'll also be looking at the lighter side of the news with another fun Headline Challenge.

WEDS 16 MAY: With the Olympic Torch set to hit the UK at the weekend, More Than Gold's Sarah-Jane Alley is live in the studio to share the exciting events that are taking place around the forthcoming Torch Relay leading up to the London 2012 Games. Plus Herman Beetage will be sharing how we can help support the families of those competing in the Olympics with the latest news on More Than Gold's Athletes' Homestay Programme.

THUR 17 MAY: It's Film Thursday: our resident film buff Rev Simon Carver returns to review the latest big screen releases and identify the surprise Biblical parallels to get us thinking. In the meantime, if you're stuck for a film to watch, check out some of Simon's past reviews here.

FRI 18 MAY: It's Give Thanks Friday as we celebrate God's goodness together, so get ready to share your good news stories and testimonies from the week as an encouragement to others. Plus we'll be playing more of your Inspirational Anthems - so standby with the feel-good or inspirational songs that you'd love to hear to wrap up your week.
