On this week’s podcast, Adam Becket talk about how Bishops in the Lords have been flexing their muscles on Brexit.

We hear from Hattie Williams about the inspiring story of a former heroin addict in Bolton who is now part of a church-plant that is helping others to overcome addiction.

And our editor Paul Handley talks about 21 for 21, an exciting new initiative to recognise young interfaith ambassadors.
