Sunday morning religious news and current affairs programme, presented by Edward Stourton.

The Sunday programme this week comes live from St Peter's Square in Rome as the world's Catholics await the inauguration of Pope Francis.
Edward Stourton will be joined by a panel of theologians and commentators who will outline the new pontiff's prospects ...and hear how he's regarded back home in Argentina.
We will also examine the significance of his chosen Papal name..Francis..with a special report from Assisi.
The announcement of a new Pope comes in the same week as the head of the Anglican church prepares to be enthroned...we have the third in our letters to new Archbishop from Rt Revd Dr Solomon Tilewa Johnson in West Africa, have been on the road with the Archbishop in Coventry..and have a special extended interview with Archbishop Justin Welby.
