Join Michael Comyn on Friday evening on RTE Radio 1 for The Leap of Faith. In a programme for people of many faiths and none, Michael talks with those whose life experiences cause them to call on their beliefs, as he seeks to discover what religion does for people… and occasionally to them.

This week: Former Munster and Irish Rugby player Damien Varley, was faced with the devastating news earlier this year that his professional rugby career was over following an injury sustained during training. On The Leap of Faith, Damien talks with Michael Comyn about how his deep faith sustained him during this time. In a frank discussion he outlines the origins of his belief, his disagreement with some of the teachings of the Catholic faith and his plans for the future…

With regular updates too, from across the worlds faiths and those that hold them, this will be a thought-provoking 30 minutes of radio.
