Tony Blair Faith Foundation
The Tony Blair Faith Foundation aims to promote respect and understanding about the world's major religions and show how faith is a powerful force for good in the modern world. Faith is vitally important to hundreds of millions of people. It underpins systems of thought and of behaviour. It underpins many of the world's great movements for change or reform, including many charities.
And the values of respect, justice and compassion that our great religions share have never been more relevant or important to bring people together to build a better world.
A panel of guests, including an Anglican vicar and a Muslim imam, join Sir David Frost to discuss the role of religion today and whether it has been responsible for many of the world's problems.
Peter Owen Jones has been a vicar in the Church of England for 15 years. He started out as a farm labourer and ran a mobile disco on the side then moved into advertising, before hearing the 'call' to become a vicar. Peter is interested in the role of the church today and how it can be made more relevant to people's lives. One of the things I'm considering at the moment is how to be a priest, and what exactly is a priest in the 21st century. You can pay priests for weddings, baptisms and funerals but the rest of the time I think that priests ought to earn a living if they have a skill.

Around The World In 80 Faiths
Peter Owen Jones presents the definitive guide to faith on earth by going off to witness eighty rituals of faith and belief across six continents in the space of a year.
The big six world religions are only part of the story. Faith is belief in the sacred, and it’s expressed in a rich diversity of rituals, in denominations, sects, cults, tribal faiths and new religious movements. Pete’s mission is to witness and take part in rites rarely filmed before, to take the religious pulse of the planet and to understand the depth of humanity’s fascination with the divine. As an Anglican priest, Pete will be confronting cultures that will challenge his values and prejudices – he’ll be surprised, even offended, but also enlightened. - See BBC Videos

What you are watching happened right in front of me at the Bay of the Holy Spirit Revival on August 27, 2010. Many of us here in Mobile, AL have known Bishop Levy Knox and his wife Delia for many years. Delia was injured in a car accident on Christmas Day, 1987, and was paralyzed from the waist down. She has had absolutely no feeling in her legs for 23 years. Until now. If you have never seen Jesus make the lame to walk... get ready. Pastor Mark
