Thank you for signing up for the ten-part audio series Churchill’s Other Lives by Sir David Cannadine.

Episode 10 – Religion

Churchill once admitted he did not support the Church from the inside like a ‘pillar’ but from the outside more like a ‘flying buttress’. His relationship with God blew hot and cold and yet he had a sense of himself as a man gifted by fate with a higher purpose, as he called it, a ‘glow worm’. In the last programme in the series, historian Sir David Cannadine explores Churchill’s faith and his powerful and driving sense of destiny.
