"For God and His Glory Alone"
Diane Holt and Will Leitch are hosting a bit of a reunion this time - as three former members of ECONI, the Evangelical Contribution on Northern lreland, join them at Commission. It's a big day as the gang are allowed into Commission's hallowed Studio 1 because there are so many of them to fit around the table!
Lynda Gould, David Porter, and Stephen Adams tell Diane and Will how they were inspired to act. But they also have serious points to make about what they were trying to do with ECONI in the 1980s and 1990s, and how some other Christians were determined that it was the wrong approach.
What should have been the cry back then? "For God and Ulster"? Or "For God and His Glory Alone"? And what do they think the cry should be now?
