What does it take to be a Premier League chaplain? Do you need to dribble through your team's needs like they do on the pitch? Save shots as you try to save souls? Chris Roe sat down with Lydia Bennett to discuss his faith journey, life in football, and supporting others five years after the UK’s COVID-19 lockdown. Now serving as Chief Development Officer at Rowland Brothers Foundation, he shares how his experiences in football continue to shape his work and ministry today.
