Playback speed
New research from the Evangelical Alliance suggests many Christians are becoming more cautious about expressing their faith in public, with some choosing not to disclose their beliefs at all in certain settings. Thrive 26 is a Scotland-wide gathering designed to encourage and equip Christians to live out their faith in the workplace through talks, networking, prayer and shared experiences. Business consultant and Thrive 26 team member Martyn Link joined Esther to share more.

Hundreds of thousands are expected in London this Saturday for the Unite the Kingdom Rally, organised by Tommy Robinson.

Esther spoke to Tommy Sharpe, whose organisation challenges links between the far-right and the Church, and Dom Muir, Christian speaker and author, who will be taking part in the march.
