Christianity and the Roman Empire
Radio National Breakfast
How kindness and music can improve your health, Christianity and empire, and the icon painters of Bethlehem. And a farewell to Rachael Kohn
On RN Breakfast with Rachael Kohn
For the final hour of RN Breakfast on Christmas Day, we’ll hear about a project introducing music into hospitals and hospices around Australia.
As well, we’ll explore family values in the Gospels; examine early Christianity and its relationship to imperial power; and meet a group of Palestinian Christians rediscovering an almost-lost part of their spiritual heritage.
And we bid farewell to broadcaster and author Rachael Kohn.
