Interesting 'Thought For The Day' podcast [4 mins] from BBC Radio 4, by Anglican priest Rev Lucy Winkett. Snippets:
"In my role as an Anglican priest, I meet significant numbers of people who are on the cusp of leaving the church".
"I met an NHS nurse recently who said it was a lot easier admitting she was gay than admitting she was a Christian".
"These findings [in a report conducted by Demos, entitled "Those Who Do God, Do Good"] run counter to a public narrative that often attempts to make faith an entirely private matter."
"Religion - at its best - cultivates trust and wisdom as part of the DNA of communities".
