Climbing and Reconciliation
On 13 November Sunday Worship on BBC Radio 4 broadcasts the last of four programmes from high peaks across the nations of the United Kingdom marking the centenary of the BBC.
In the final episode, the Rector of Ballyholme, Canon Simon Doogan, and Father Martin Magill tackle Northern Ireland’s highest peak, Slieve Donard in the Mourne Mountains.
This Remembrance Sunday, they consider the theme of reconciliation and how the search for it can be similar to climbing and reflect on the story of Jacob and Esau, two brothers whose relationship was seriously ruptured but later were reconciled.
