In a month in which we lost our longest-serving monarch, it's only fitting that we start our 'At The Foot of The Cross' podcast by discussing the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Regular studio guest, Canon Christopher Thomas, offers his personal reflections on a much-loved sovereign and a woman of faith and longevity. He also discusses the continental phase of the synodal process and looks forward to the jubilee year of 2025 and how the preceding two years will be spent leading up to it.
We also have a message from Lead Bishop for Migrants and Refugees, Bishop Paul McAleenan, for the World Day of Migrants and Refugees plus an interview with Bishop John Arnold, who has our environment brief, discussing our environmental work and the Bishops' updated teaching document on the subject - the soon to be released 'Call of Creation'.
