Gareth Wallace: As the South Sudan crisis spirals, here’s how World Vision is saving lives

I left feeling proud that as a UK taxpayer my money is being put to such good use, but we mustn’t pat ourselves on the back just yet. Our work is not done.

Kieron O’Hara: How liberalism can undermine the foundations on which it is built

Put harshly, it can be the ideology of the free-rider, the citizen who neglects the demands of citizenship.

Farron’s sideswipe at the ethos of the party he led was truly remarkable

You may not agree with his views on gay sex and abortion – or what were his views – but they should not be marginalised as illegitimate.

“To be a political leader…and to live as a committed Christian…has felt impossible for me.” Farron’s resignation statement in full.

“Our Shepherd is departed, the fount of living water,/At whose passing the sun was darkened…Today the gates of death and their bars as well our Saviour has destroyed.”

Music for Good Friday: Tenebrae Factae Sunt

“There was darkness over the earth.”

The triumph of the Cross

Reports of the Church’s decline ignore worldwide growth, even in such apparently unlikely places as Iran, and throughout much of the Muslim-majority world.

Music for Maundy Thursday: Ubi caritas et amor

“Where charity and love are, there God is.”

James Frayne: How should the church respond to the decline of Christianity in Britain?

As observant Christians approach minority status, public figures might become more willing to highlight the plight of believers abroad.

David Waddington RIP

The loyal Home Secretary with a sharp wit who did great service to the Conservative Party and the nation.

Chris Whitehouse: Pharmacy workers – and a new threat to religious freedom from equality laws meant to protect it

Careers in the profession could be closed to people of faith if the General Pharmaceutical Council gets it way.
