How do you respond when the news feels overwhelming? Constant headlines, social media arguments and a sense of division can leave us cynical, discouraged or tempted to disengage altogether. But is there a better way to live faithfully in a broken world? Rev Jago Wynne, Rector of Holy Trinity Clapham, has been reflecting on the life of William Wilberforce and the historic Clapham Sect. He joined Esther to share what their example can teach us about hope, perseverance and making a positive difference today.
In an increasingly divided political culture, do churches need to do more to help Christians think biblically about politics? As debate continues over what it means for the UK to be a “Christian nation”, Churches Together in England has launched Kingdom Over Nation, a new resource exploring Christian nationalism, political discipleship and civic engagement. With 1 Peter urging believers to honour governing authorities, how should Christians engage with politics today?

But your voice is powerful. And Premier is here to empower you.
