What is Life Explored?

What is life all about?

Is a Christian, just somebody who goes to worship on a Sunday? We believe faith doesn't stay locked up in a building, but actually, it's with us throughout our working lives.

We talk to real Christians, real people - People who you may work with every day. They are from all different backgrounds and we will learn about their faith and how that plays out in the rest of their life.
