This week, it's nearly Mothering Sunday. Since the Middle Ages, it's been the day when people have journeyed to their mother church - the place where they were baptised.
Today, we'll hear one of the readings that may be read in church for Mothering Sunday. It comes from a conversation between Mary, Jesus' mother, and Simeon. It can be found in Luke 2:33-35.
There's also the answers to last weeks' Brain of the Week and a new question for next week.
