Sunday - Church of England Stalking Case; Global Religion Study; Faith at Glastonbury
Download Church of England Stalking Case; Global Religion Study; Faith at Glastonbury
The Church of England is facing serious criticism from a stalking victim for failing to keep him safe. The victim was a male volunteer church warden, the stalker a woman lay preacher. He says he reported what was happening to the Church authorities - including Martyn Snow, the Bishop of Leicester. Ed Stourton is joined by the BBC's Religion Editor, Aleem Maqbool, who has helped uncover this story.
The American Pew foundation has just published the results of one of its most ambitious projects - plotting How the Global Religious Landscape has changed over the past decade. They sifted through some 2,700 new sources of data - for the results we spoke to the lead author, Conrad Hackett.
It’s Glastonbury weekend and we’re exploring faith on the farm. We hear from Chris North at the festival’s church tent where he’s planning Sunday’s service.
