What do you want your entrance to say about you?
Boxing champion Katie Taylor made her final walk into the ring at Croke Park in front of 83,000 people. But instead of a high-energy boxing anthem, she chose the worship song "All Hail King Jesus".
Graham Daniels from Christians in Sport joined Esther to reflect on her final fight and living out faith in the spotlight.

Could AI be screening out "older" women?
A group of high-profile women in their 50s say they’re being screened out of jobs despite years of experience, with AI picking up on age, language and career gaps linked to childcare. Job 12:12 says: “Wisdom belongs to the aged.” So how do we make sure older women’s wisdom is valued in church and the workplace? Menopause coach Jo Ibbot joined Esther to share where she’s seen women in midlife starting to fade away.
Local churches are doing WAY more than you think across the UK
The Gather Movement brings churches, Christians, local councils and civic leaders together to mobilise communities and respond to local needs.

Tina Amadi, a local councillor and Parliamentary Liaison for Christian Solidarity Worldwide, joins Esther to unpack the complex situation in Nigeria and ask whether ‘genocide’ is an accurate descriptor for what Christians are facing — plus, why we need to get more specific in our prayers for the country by learning the names of places and people.
