"Good News People"

Send us a text

     Is Northern Ireland a place apart?  More "religious" than Great Britain? 

Here's a remarkable snapshot of current Christian faith in Northern Ireland.  David Smyth, the head of Evangelical Alliance here, joins Kerry and Will to discuss his charity's new report, "Good News People". 

It has some startling findings for an era considered to be increasingly secular, or even post-Christian.  Half the population of NI self-identifies as practising Christians.  A fifth, as Evangelical. And yet almost 60% don't go to church.

Really? Are the findings right?  What even is an Evangelical these days anyway?
