Also, an outspoken Ukrainian cleric on church and state in Russia, and the cost of resistance.

In a world of conflict, how do we recognise and combat antisemitism? Also, a look at what celibacy means in Christian faith, and the strange Easter paradox of forgiveness and atonement.

Medieval Christians weaving lurid folk tales of ghosts and spirits into their religious belief; an increasing number of countries around the globe rejecting liberal democratic values; a challenge for the new Archbishop of Canterbury posed by the rise of Christian nationalism.
