Piecing it Together

Parts Unknown

Guest writer David Blower interviews Dr. Marianne Rozario from Theos Think Tank, about their research into views on death, dying and the afterlife in modern Britain. What do people really believe? What is a ‘good’ death? And has faith lost its voice?

Listening When it Counts

Sharing the experiences of a number of Christians who have taken high-risk decisions­—facing jailtime, and putting safety, security and livelihoods on the line­—in order to live up to what they believe the Spirit of God is saying. What does that dynamic heart feel like, when it counts?
