While lying in the bath on Friday morning I listened to an interesting report from Egypt about conversions between Christianity and Islam. It included interviews with Dr William Hanna from the Coptic Church in Egypt. If you are quick you can also listen again to the report from Friday 24th August - it comes about 10 minutes in on the 6.30-7.00 slot
You can also read more about the case that triggered the report here.
