For years, Christian radio stations in the United Kingdom were prevented from airing nationally, but now two Christian broadcasting groups are doing just that. United Christian Broadcasters operates on nearly every continent to make Christian radio and television available even in closed countries. At the end of last year the group finally realized a 23-year vision to bring national Christian radio across the UK.
Almost simultaneously Premier Radio - that had been operating as a local station in London since 1990 - was granted a national digital license to broadcast throughout Britain. This has been an historic victory after facing major challenges since the long journey first began. UCB’s Ian Mackie said there were many times when he was ready to give up on the vision, but a significant word from the Lord kept him going.
After 23 years, Mackie’s persistence has finally paid off when he was told by Ofcom, the British radio authority, that he’d finally been granted a national digital radio license to begin Dec. 1. His story acts as an inspiration to many of what one man’s perseverance to fulfill God’s vision for his life can achieve.

PRAISE: God that these two Christian groups have the privilege of broadcasting the Gospel message throughout Britain. Pray that they may exercise great wisdom so as to speak to the whole nation.
