The life-changing nature of the Covid-19 crisis became clear just as Christians were preparing to mark Holy Week and Easter 2020.

At this time of spiritual and emotional intensity, we invited three of our best presenters to reflect on an angle of the story that had given them pause. And they came up with three different themes: former BBC correspondent Mike Wooldridge reflects on what the African emphasis on our common humanity might teach us in the current crisis; Mark Dowd was struck by the cruelty of many people dying of the virus not seeing a loving face by their bedside; and Jane Little wonders whether coronavirus may provide an opportunity to live in radically new and different ways.
