0:00:06 > 0:00:09It's Father's Day and many dads will have received one of these
0:00:09 > 0:00:12if they're lucky because there are still only
0:00:12 > 0:00:14half as many of these sold as there are Mother's Day cards.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16So, on today's Songs Of Praise
0:00:16 > 0:00:19we raise a cheer for fathers everywhere.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21I meet the Jordan family to share their thoughts
0:00:21 > 0:00:23on food, faith and fatherhood.
0:00:23 > 0:00:27My dad is good because he gets my clothes ready.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30He likes to make jokes a lot.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33He fixes light bulbs when he doesn't even know when they're on.
0:00:33 > 0:00:37He is still alive. He's OK.
0:00:37 > 0:00:41We hear how one father is helping his young son reach new heights.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45I think he's the best daddy who's ever walked this earth.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48And 40 years after the death of Agatha Christie,
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Richard Taylor visits her home on the trail of a church mystery.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03For our music today,
0:01:03 > 0:01:06we have a great performance from gospel singer Lorraine Cato
0:01:06 > 0:01:09and our hymns reflect the love, guidance and strength
0:01:09 > 0:01:13we receive from the greatest father of them all, God the Father.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I grew up without one and now I am one
0:03:22 > 0:03:25and I consider it the most important job I've got.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28But being a dad is not always easy, especially if, like me,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30you don't have a role model.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34These days, more and more people are turning to the internet for advice.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Like EuGene Jordan.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40He's gone a step further and set up his own video blog
0:03:40 > 0:03:44following his traumatic experience of becoming a father.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49It was a bit of a difficult experience for us
0:03:49 > 0:03:52because a few hours after my daughter was born,
0:03:52 > 0:03:55we noticed that she was having a seizure
0:03:55 > 0:03:57and down one side of her body was just shaking.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00It was really traumatic to witness because,
0:04:00 > 0:04:03being a first-time parent, we didn't know what was going on.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08The seizures were caused because of two blood clots in her brain
0:04:08 > 0:04:10and, you know, we were prepared for the worst.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14We were told that this might have a negative impact on her,
0:04:14 > 0:04:17be it a learning disability or perhaps even walking.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22And, being a family of faith, we spoke to our parents,
0:04:22 > 0:04:25we spoke to our friends and our churches all prayed
0:04:25 > 0:04:26and within a matter of days,
0:04:26 > 0:04:29the report came back from the doctor and she said,
0:04:29 > 0:04:33"Well, we don't know where they've gone, but the blood clots are no longer there."
0:04:34 > 0:04:35So, for me,
0:04:35 > 0:04:39it was an incredible time where I witnessed my first-ever miracle.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42We hear about miracles in the Bible, but I've never seen one myself.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46And that kind of gave me a new desire and a new...
0:04:46 > 0:04:47More faith in God.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51I think, if that never happened,
0:04:51 > 0:04:56I would have been just a parent who just kind of winged it.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58My daughter and I, we do loads of things together.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01We go to church as a family, she sits next to me
0:05:01 > 0:05:05whilst I'm playing the drums and she has her own little pad.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06# Holy spirit... #
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Although I come from a big family,
0:05:09 > 0:05:11and I've got my dad and my four brothers,
0:05:11 > 0:05:15nobody close to me had been through the experience I'd been through.
0:05:15 > 0:05:16I kind of closed myself off a bit
0:05:16 > 0:05:19because I didn't have anybody to talk to about it.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21But then I really wanted to make sure that fathers who have
0:05:21 > 0:05:23gone through a similar experience that I have,
0:05:23 > 0:05:26that they know that they're not alone.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29So I decided to share my story and my journey online
0:05:29 > 0:05:32and I posted a YouTube video.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34What Father's Day message should I say?
0:05:34 > 0:05:38Hi, I'm EuGene Jordan and we're here to talk about...
0:05:38 > 0:05:40With technical assistance from his wife, Keisha,
0:05:40 > 0:05:44and their daughter, EuGene has created a Men and Marriage site.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Hi, I'm EuGene and this is... - Geneva.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49And you're watching the fatherhood series.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51What's been the response to the blog?
0:05:51 > 0:05:55Um, it's been bigger than I actually would have imagined.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59I never thought I would get guys sharing their story back with me.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Usually, guys talk about facts and statistics
0:06:02 > 0:06:06and here I am sharing my feelings.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10He's now enlisted the help of his dad and four brothers.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13If you provide everything in the quantity and quality
0:06:13 > 0:06:17and the love that you're supposed to, you cannot help
0:06:17 > 0:06:19but be seen as a Superman, you cannot.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Any time I flick on the TV, I genuinely see some bozo
0:06:22 > 0:06:24not really paying attention to his child.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27I know, those fathers I've connected with,
0:06:27 > 0:06:30who actually play a significant part in their children's life...
0:06:30 > 0:06:32We need to shine some light on those kind of guys
0:06:32 > 0:06:36because that's really going to help other new dads or other fathers
0:06:36 > 0:06:39who thought, actually, this job is really difficult.
0:06:39 > 0:06:44So, what does a blog about fathering do on Father's Day?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47I guess what any son should do, go and see their dad.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51At EuGene's parents' home, known as Jordan HQ,
0:06:51 > 0:06:57the whole family regularly descend for Sunday dinner, all 24 of them.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01- This is my family. This is my mum. - Hi, Mum.- Hello.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03- Hi, David.- Hiya.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- Where's your dad?- Well, he's in the kitchen.- I need to meet him.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Mr Jordan!- Ah! - Father of the family.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Good to see a man in the kitchen. I love cooking, myself.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Listen, can I help you while we have our next hymn?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Give that a stir.- Great. It's Good, Good Father.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41CHILDREN'S LAUGHTER
0:09:44 > 0:09:47For many dads, a kick-about in the garden with the kids
0:09:47 > 0:09:49is what the weekend's all about.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51That's certainly the case for one father and son,
0:09:51 > 0:09:53even if the ball does need a little adapting.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Football with Jackson is a little trickier
0:09:59 > 0:10:01than football with anyone else.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05The special balls I've got has bells inside it, so when I jingle it,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07it goes ding-a-ling.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Jackson was diagnosed with LCA,
0:10:10 > 0:10:14which is Leber's congenital amaurosis, at three months old.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16From what we've been told,
0:10:16 > 0:10:20it's like the equivalent of looking through five net curtains.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23So, that's only about a metre of vision.
0:10:23 > 0:10:28I think he's the best daddy who has ever walked this earth.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32As a father... Well, to begin with, I was completely devastated.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36Sadly, most people will turn to faith when tragedy strikes
0:10:36 > 0:10:38and, for us, at that time, it was tragic.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41You know, we'd just introduced this beautiful baby boy
0:10:41 > 0:10:43into the world, and then to find out that, actually,
0:10:43 > 0:10:46there was something that wasn't quite right.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50And our faith is what got us through the early stages.
0:10:50 > 0:10:55I think if there's something that I'd deeply, most deeply desire,
0:10:55 > 0:10:58it's to just be the same as everybody else.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02They have said that within his lifetime there should be a cure.
0:11:03 > 0:11:08Kevin's got a mountain to climb to raise money to make this possible.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11So, the next task is climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15It's a little bit nerve-racking.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18There's a lot of training to be done beforehand,
0:11:18 > 0:11:22so over the next few months I will be training on Snowdon
0:11:22 > 0:11:24to make sure that I'm trained as much as I can be.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Climbing Snowdon, Britain's second-highest mountain,
0:11:28 > 0:11:31will be a challenge in itself, so in preparation,
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Kevin and Jackson are leaving Mum behind
0:11:33 > 0:11:38and going for a boy's day out, taking the train part of the way up.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40You know, it will be an amazing experience for him
0:11:40 > 0:11:44and I can't wait to get him up to the top of that mountain.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45I'm really, really excited
0:11:45 > 0:11:49because it's my first time ever on a mountain.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWS
0:11:53 > 0:11:55So, this is the train. How cool is it?
0:11:55 > 0:11:59- # Just the two of us... - A big step up.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- # We can make it if we try... - Well done. Good work!
0:12:02 > 0:12:04# Just the two of us... #
0:12:04 > 0:12:06It's an hour-long journey to the top.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07Off we go!
0:12:11 > 0:12:13WHISTLE BLOWS
0:12:13 > 0:12:16So, Jacks, I can now see all the way up the track
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- for about 200 or 300 yards.- Yeah. - And it's all going uphill,
0:12:19 > 0:12:21- really, really steep.- Wow!
0:12:21 > 0:12:25You're going to start hearing the engine roaring in a minute.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28And you'll feel yourself tipping back into your seat.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30- Are you ready for it?- Yeah.
0:12:30 > 0:12:35- OK, Jackson, there's a really big drop to our left-hand side.- Wow!
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Come on, train! You can do it!
0:12:42 > 0:12:45The train has taken them as far as it can.
0:12:45 > 0:12:50It's down to Jackson now to get to the summit at 3,560 feet.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- Can you feel that wind?- Yeah, I can. - It's because we're so high up.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02- This way. - Hey! That was a huge rock.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Right, a really uneven surface now.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- There we go. - There we are. We're at the top.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- How does it feel? - We're on the summit!
0:13:18 > 0:13:20- Well done, mate. - We're on the peak!
0:13:20 > 0:13:21Good work. Well done!
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- A Snowdon cheer! - Well done, buddy boy!
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- A summit cheer! - Well done.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- We are at the top.- Yay!
0:13:29 > 0:13:30Yay, we're at the top!
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- You're the highest boy in Wales right now.- Am I?
0:13:33 > 0:13:35- Yep.- Wow!- It's official!
0:13:46 > 0:13:52# As the Father has loved me
0:13:52 > 0:13:55# So have I loved you
0:13:55 > 0:14:00# Remain in my love
0:14:01 > 0:14:09# Remain in my love
0:14:11 > 0:14:15# This is my commandment
0:14:15 > 0:14:19# That you love one another
0:14:19 > 0:14:25# As I have loved you
0:14:32 > 0:14:40# God is love and those who live in love...
0:14:40 > 0:14:45# Live in God and God lives in them
0:14:45 > 0:14:50- # God is love - God is love
0:14:50 > 0:14:57- # God is love - God is love
0:15:13 > 0:15:18# If you keep my commandment
0:15:18 > 0:15:21# You will remain in my love
0:15:21 > 0:15:28- # Love one another - As I have loved you
0:15:29 > 0:15:37- # Then your joy is complete - Then your joy is complete
0:15:37 > 0:15:41# If you keep my commandment
0:15:41 > 0:15:46# And you love one another
0:15:46 > 0:15:54# Your joy will be complete #
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Time now for a little family mystery.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Our church detective, Richard Taylor,
0:16:11 > 0:16:13has been investigating a personal secret
0:16:13 > 0:16:18of one of our best-loved crime writers who died 40 years ago.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Agatha Christie, the Queen of Crime,
0:16:23 > 0:16:26the best-selling author of the 20th century,
0:16:26 > 0:16:30the creator of Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple,
0:16:30 > 0:16:32The Queen Of Crime...
0:16:32 > 0:16:35was also a devout churchgoer
0:16:35 > 0:16:40and it turns out that this intensely private lady
0:16:40 > 0:16:43had a few church secrets of her own.
0:16:43 > 0:16:48I've come to her home, Greenways, in South Devon, to find out more.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55The house is now owned by the National Trust
0:16:55 > 0:17:00and it's been preserved exactly as it was in Christie's day.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05It's full of her things, some of them are little spine tingling.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09And this is her drawing room,
0:17:09 > 0:17:11the place where the writer of classics
0:17:11 > 0:17:15like Death On The Nile, Murder On The Orient Express
0:17:15 > 0:17:19and The Mousetrap would come to escape.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22She wrote at this desk, but, above all,
0:17:22 > 0:17:26this place was about home and it was about family.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Christie would attend services at St Mary's Church
0:17:31 > 0:17:33in the nearby village of Churston Ferrers.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37I'm going to St Mary's to meet with Agatha Christie's grandson,
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Matthew Prichard.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42She was always very happy in this church
0:17:42 > 0:17:47and I think she felt closer to God here than in most places.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50And she was obviously a very devout person.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54Even when I was younger I worked that out.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56She was a very private person.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59She has a great reputation of being shy, which she was,
0:17:59 > 0:18:02and she was quite shy about her spirituality as well.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Sad to say, I think we probably learned more about her spirituality
0:18:06 > 0:18:12after she died than we knew when she was alive.
0:18:12 > 0:18:13Earlier in her life,
0:18:13 > 0:18:17when she got married in the middle of the First World War
0:18:17 > 0:18:20to, obviously my grandfather, Archie,
0:18:20 > 0:18:23we found a picture of Archie
0:18:23 > 0:18:28who was quite a handsome young man.
0:18:28 > 0:18:29He was, wasn't he?
0:18:29 > 0:18:33But, interestingly, on the back there is some handwritten script
0:18:33 > 0:18:39which comes, I believe, from Psalm 91, and this was in the form
0:18:39 > 0:18:44of a prayer that she would get him back safe and sound after the war.
0:18:44 > 0:18:50"Thou art my hope and my stronghold, my God. In him will I trust."
0:18:51 > 0:18:52That is lovely.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57As a member of the family, strangely enough I still miss her.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00She was a terrific person and I learnt a lot from her
0:19:00 > 0:19:04and I think, even in the 21st century, we still gain
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- a huge amount of enjoyment from the work that she did.- Mm.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14Christie gave the church a secret gift which is still there.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16It was only after her death that people discovered
0:19:16 > 0:19:20that Agatha Christie had donated this window to the church.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23The story was that, as she sat here in services
0:19:23 > 0:19:29when the glass was plain, she just felt that something was missing.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31So she commissioned an artist, telling him
0:19:31 > 0:19:35that she wanted something that would appeal to children,
0:19:35 > 0:19:36like her grandson, Matthew.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42The window is coloured with the most beautiful pinks and purples.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45In the centre, you have Christ, the Good Shepherd.
0:19:45 > 0:19:46On the left is the Nativity
0:19:46 > 0:19:51with the shepherds visiting baby Jesus in the stable.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54And on the right, you have Jesus walking on water
0:19:54 > 0:19:55and fishermen at their nets.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00When she was at home in Devon, either growing up or later
0:20:00 > 0:20:05at Greenways, Agatha Christie spent time overlooking water
0:20:05 > 0:20:09and fields and that's exactly what you see here.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11This is local, this is Devonshire.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Fishermen and fish, sheep and shepherds
0:20:14 > 0:20:18and Christ the Good Shepherd in the centre watching over everything.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22I love it that this window is so personal to Agatha Christie,
0:20:22 > 0:20:25one of the world's great writers
0:20:25 > 0:20:30expressing her quiet devotion and West Country pride.
0:22:44 > 0:22:49# I will lift up mine eyes to the hills... #
0:22:49 > 0:22:53I'm joining the Jordan family for Sunday dinner.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57They love to sing, and if you are a fan of gospel music too,
0:22:57 > 0:23:01there's a great opportunity to come and join us in London
0:23:01 > 0:23:04at the Hackney Empire for our Gospel Weekend.
0:23:04 > 0:23:09Tickets are free, so to book yours, go to the website...
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Last year, singer Lurine Cato wowed the Hackney audience.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20Here she is for us singing the gospel classic Going Up Yonder.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27# If you want to know
0:23:28 > 0:23:32# Where I'm going
0:23:33 > 0:23:40# Where I am going soon
0:23:42 > 0:23:45# If anybody asks you
0:23:47 > 0:23:50# Where I'm going
0:23:50 > 0:23:58# Where I am going soon
0:23:59 > 0:24:03# I'm going up yonder
0:24:04 > 0:24:08# I'm going up yonder
0:24:08 > 0:24:12# I'm going up yonder
0:24:12 > 0:24:16# To be with my Lord
0:24:16 > 0:24:17# Oh-oh-oh-oh
0:24:17 > 0:24:21# I'm going up yonder
0:24:21 > 0:24:25# I'm going up yonder
0:24:25 > 0:24:29# I'm going up yonder
0:24:29 > 0:24:33# To be with my Lord
0:24:33 > 0:24:35# Oh-oh-oh
0:24:35 > 0:24:38# I can't stand the pain
0:24:39 > 0:24:43# The heartache it brings
0:24:44 > 0:24:48# The comfort in knowing
0:24:48 > 0:24:51# I'll soon be gone
0:24:51 > 0:24:53# Oh-oh-oh-oh
0:24:53 > 0:24:56# And God gives me grace
0:24:56 > 0:25:01# To run this race
0:25:01 > 0:25:08# I know I'll see my Saviour face to face
0:25:08 > 0:25:10# Yeah...
0:25:10 > 0:25:13# I'm going up yonder
0:25:13 > 0:25:15# Going up yonder
0:25:15 > 0:25:18# I'm going up yonder
0:25:18 > 0:25:20# Going up yonder
0:25:20 > 0:25:22# I'm going up yonder
0:25:22 > 0:25:26# To be with my Lord
0:25:26 > 0:25:28# Yes, I am! Yes, I am!
0:25:28 > 0:25:30# Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
0:25:30 > 0:25:32# I'm going up yonder
0:25:32 > 0:25:35# I'm going up yonder
0:25:35 > 0:25:36# Going up yonder
0:25:36 > 0:25:42# I'm going up yonder, yeah
0:25:42 > 0:25:44# Hah!
0:25:44 > 0:25:46# To be...
0:25:46 > 0:25:55- # Be with my... - ..with her...
0:25:55 > 0:26:04- # ..Lord... - ..Lord... #
0:26:07 > 0:26:10The Jordans are a talented family.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13Back in the '90s, they toured the UK.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Now the eight siblings are grown up, but they still regularly gather
0:26:17 > 0:26:20at their parents' home, along with their own children.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23I'm here with all the men of the Jordan family,
0:26:23 > 0:26:25and they are all fathers.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Clint, what do you think is the role of a father?
0:26:28 > 0:26:33I think the three P's would probably sum it up -
0:26:33 > 0:26:36provide, protect and persevere.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Your child is not always going to do what you want them to do,
0:26:39 > 0:26:43but you should always be the voice whispering in their ear.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45It's no secret amongst the entire family
0:26:45 > 0:26:48that I would be considered a handful.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53And I am reminded of the prodigal son,
0:26:53 > 0:26:57and being the one who ventured out of the faith and, you know,
0:26:57 > 0:27:00seeing what the world had to offer, and my father,
0:27:00 > 0:27:02he still opened the door and he still said,
0:27:02 > 0:27:05"Here's where you belong."
0:27:05 > 0:27:07He has always been there.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11He may have been disappointed, he may have been angry,
0:27:11 > 0:27:15but he has always shown us this window of forgiveness,
0:27:15 > 0:27:17and we can always look in.
0:27:17 > 0:27:23- ALL:- # Thank you, Lord. #
0:27:23 > 0:27:27How much of your fathering has been influenced by God as a father?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29A very interesting question.
0:27:29 > 0:27:33God, throughout the Bible, he's just like an ordinary bloke,
0:27:33 > 0:27:36saying, "Listen to me and you'll do all right," but they don't.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38And he keeps forgiving them and saying,
0:27:38 > 0:27:40"Come back, come back, come back."
0:27:40 > 0:27:43If God forgives me for so many things that I've done,
0:27:43 > 0:27:46then how can I not forgive my own flesh and blood?
0:27:46 > 0:27:48I wasn't brought up by my father,
0:27:48 > 0:27:51and when my wife was pregnant, I felt terrified.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Do you feel the way that your father has brought you up
0:27:54 > 0:27:56has equipped you for fatherhood?
0:27:56 > 0:27:59100%. I think it really hit home when I did have my child,
0:27:59 > 0:28:02and I can hear it in my head now. My dad used to say,
0:28:02 > 0:28:06"Yeah, you're going to understand when you get your own child."
0:28:06 > 0:28:09I've learnt how valuable we are to him.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12My dad told a story. I was young, I wanted to keep going out
0:28:12 > 0:28:15of the house, and I would say, "Why can't you let me go?"
0:28:15 > 0:28:17He said, "Imagine you're a jeweller
0:28:17 > 0:28:19"and you have a diamond, and your diamond had feet.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22"Would you like that diamond go out on the street
0:28:22 > 0:28:24"where everybody can take it and steal it?" "No."
0:28:24 > 0:28:27"So why would I let you go out on the street
0:28:27 > 0:28:30"where someone can take you away from me?"
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Can I have that drink, please?
0:28:32 > 0:28:34Love.
0:28:34 > 0:28:39You really know that a father's love is just such a great thing.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42I always tell my dad that I love him and, even to this day,
0:28:42 > 0:28:44I just kiss him and say, "Daddy, I love you.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47"How are you doing?" and stuff like that.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18- Thank you, Chef. The food is fantastic.- You're welcome.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20That's almost it for this week.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Next week, Sally visits the Somme to commemorate the 100th anniversary
0:31:23 > 0:31:27of the bloodiest day in the history of the British Army,
0:31:27 > 0:31:31and retraces the experiences of devout Christian young men
0:31:31 > 0:31:33who heard the call of duty.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36We end with a hymn that acknowledges
0:31:36 > 0:31:38that we don't always get things right,
0:31:38 > 0:31:40but that when we go wrong,
0:31:40 > 0:31:42there's a Heavenly Father there for all of us.
