Show Notes
For our final episode of 2020, Michelle and Mairead have put together an incredibly moving podcast with the Reverend David Latimer (retd) to hear about his time as Minister of The First Presbyterian Church of Derry and the parish of Monreagh, and how he forged a friendship with leading Irish Republican Martin McGuinness.
The podcast centers around war, peace, and forgiveness in the context of the Troubles in Northern Ireland and ask questions like: Have things changed? Do grudges still exist? How can we move forward?
