The April edition of Reform asks what we can learn from the Church in Africa, and wonders why African Christians ‘seem much more ready to give the reason for the hope they have than Western Christians’.
In the month that we mark Easter, Trevor Jamison overcomes a Jesus allergy, and Rosalind Selby asks whether Jesus had anything to say about environmental issues. And in our featured interview, we hear from the Revd Mark Coleman on why he decided to stand as an independent candidate in the recent Rochdale by-election.
Two new columns also get underway in this issue. Mark Robinson is the first contributor to Soul Stories, in which individuals share key moments in their journey of faith. Plus our expanded Review section includes not only a focus on the upcoming film Kidnapped by resident Reform critic Jeremy Clarke, but also introduces TV reviews. This month: Michael Sheen’s directorial debut, The Way. Missed it? You’ll want to catch up with it after reading Oliver Tomkins’ thoughtful assessment.
