Print version

A recent British government report says that people, especially the young, are using digital media on average 5 hours a day - but squeezing that into 2 hours through multi-tasking.

Is this an exciting new way to learn and get things done, or a recipe for mind-numbing distraction and lower productivity?

Mal Fletcher discusses the issues in this segment with the BBC Breakfast TV team. BBC Breakfast is British TV's highest rating morning news programme, known and loved by people across the nation.

In the UK in 2008, the Church does not seem to do well on broadcast media. Yet it has important things to say. I want to thank you Mal for your forward-looking approach to sorting this out.

Thanks so much for visiting Speak The Word Church International (Minneapolis). I am a baby boomer who sat with a GenXer - we both knew that what you said was right on. It made me think. I like that.

Mal Fletcher, I would just like to take this opportunity to say thankyou for the inspiration you are. I was at Rock Nations and found your ministry incredibly refreshing especially when you spoke on Celebrity and what happens when that creeps into the church.
