Christmas Hope: child abandoned finds kindness transforming & when sadness strikes how to find hope

from Good News paper review · host Colin Johnson

Join Colin and Mark to hear their take on two of the good news stories from the Christmas edition of the Good News paper. Colin's focus is on the front page story. This is the true story of a baby thrown away in the rubbish who grew up to become a successful businessman after his life changed at Christmas. Mark looks at the article Colin wrote about the sadness a lot of people can feel during holidays and other 'happy' events, including Christmas. This may be because they have lost a loved one at that time of year. They may feel isolated or left out and an anniversary of public holiday could be a trigger for sadness. This is very common.
