EPISODE 5: Eric Liddell
Stories are the essential building block of empathy and human connection.
Since the beginning of time, storytelling has been used to connect, engage, inspire, heal and create a brighter future.
We are convinced that it is stories that change our world. We have seen hearts change and opinions soften when real people and real stories are heard.
Beth received a church prize book called "Ten Girls that Changed the World" when she was a child and it is this book that inspired this all-new series from At the Table Podcast by Faversham Salvation Army.
You may know the stories of Christians like Martin Luther King jr, Florence Nightingale and maybe that of the Salvation Army's founders William & Catherine Booth but this series, we are hearing the stories that changed the world from people you may not have heard of.
As we almost reach the end of our latest series, we are looking at a capped rugby player, gold medalist, stadium-builder, teacher and missionary (to name a few of the accolades...); a man called Eric Liddell.
Eric is inspirational - not only for his sporting feats - but also the way he was compassionate, loving, caring and devoted during a dark period in our history. There is also a film which depicts his life which - to our surprise - is a huge popular blockbuster!
