Sarah has rowed for Oxford in the Boat Race for the last three years and is a high-performance athlete training 12 times a week. We spoke to her about what it means to be a Christian in her sport, how she balances wins and losses and where identity lies when sport doesn't go her way.

Have you ever wondered why your friend tries to talk to you about their faith? Maybe you respect it, but you don't think it's for you and you don't want to hear about it? We chatted to Grace McMorrow about why she thinks people want to talk about Jesus and being a Christian with their friends and ask whether it really matters. We also talk about our own experiences of sharing our faith and some ways we think help to do it.

We're back after a brief break with Sophie, who became a Christian when she was 20 after looking into the claims of Christianity for herself.
