Date de diffusion: Sept 08, 2019

Katherine Jenkins explores 'heavenly designs' 350 years after Christopher Wren’s began work on his masterpiece, St Paul’s Cathedral. She meets Christian architect Niall McLauglin, who specialises in sacred buildings and explains why Wren remains such an inspiration to him. The Dean of St Paul's describes the time the cathedral nearly lost its iconic dome, and jewellery designer Ruth Mary Chipperfield explains how her faith informs her work. Josie d’Arby meets the Christian modern art collective Morphé Arts, which supports young artists embarking upon their careers. And Christian couple Rev. Dr Giles and Kate Kendall show how the faith-inspired design of their zero-carbon vicarage is leading the way in sustainability. Hymns and songs come from across the UK and include Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation and Cornerstone.
