This episode of Culture Tuesday, Helena marked the feast day of St Clare of Assisi and asked what it really means to let God guide you. St Clare left behind wealth and comfort to follow a path she could not fully see. Most of us will never be asked to do anything so dramatic. But we are asked, again and again, to trust a way that is not our own. Helena brings that thought back down to earth with a story from this summer's family holiday to Devon. The smartphone stayed hidden away for the week and a trucker's road atlas took its place, spread out across laps and squinted at around every roundabout. No recalculating voice. No blue dot. Just a family working out the way together, one page at a time.What happens when you swap instant direction for something slower? What do you notice when you actually have to look? Join Helena as she connects St Clare's radical trust with a week of wrong turns, family bickering over map pages and the small everyday grace of finding your way home.Tune in to Culture Tuesday for faith, culture and a reminder that sometimes the best guidance is the kind you have to work for.

In this programme, we speak with Dr Krish Kandiah OBE about his powerful new book, God is Stranger—and a life spent answering that question in action. Dr Kandiah is the founder of The Sanctuary Foundation, a charity dedicated to helping refugees find welcome, work and stable housing across the UK. For decades, he's been at the frontline of refugee resettlement, child welfare reform and civil society mobilisation. He's mobilised churches and community groups to respond to crisis arrivals from Hong Kong, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Gaza and Sudan. He's advised government on how we care for vulnerable children. He's trained thousands to love well. His work is grounded in a single conviction: that we are called to see Christ in the stranger. That welcome isn't sentiment. It's action. It's transformation. In this episode, Dr Kandiah shares what happens when faith communities actually answer that call—and what his book God is Stranger reveals about who we are called to become.Please consider supporting us with a one-off or monthly donation.
