Life and Faith examines the way that whenever we eat, we are eating with other people. Ruth Dearnley, World Vision Australia's campaign leader for child protection and trafficking, discusses how the food we but in the supermarket can be the result of child trafficking and exploitation and what we can do to to combat this. Ruth Padilla DeBorst, World Vision International's director of Christian Formation and Leadership Development, shares her thoughts about what it means to eat in community and why Christians should seek to eat with those who are different.

Life and Faith: The Turning

The Turning is a unique cinema event. Seventeen Australian directors from diverse artistic disciplines each create one of the stories from Tim Winton's collection. The linking and overlapping stories explore the extraordinary turning points in ordinary people’s lives in a stunning portrait of a small coastal community.
Simon Smart, who is a big fan of Winton's writing, watched the film and he joined Justine Toh to discuss it with a focus on one story in particular: a brutal, unsentimental but life-affirming account of a woman coming to faith.
