Direction Magazine - April 2020

It's Friday, but Sunday is coming! We're celebrating the triumph of the Son of God at Easter and sharing the joy of the couple on the road to Emmaus. But we're also dealing with some tough subjects: Malcolm Duncan tells how he's learned to walk slowly with grief, and Laura Edwards unpacks the reality of mental issues and church. Plus, we meet new head of the EA, Gavin Calver, and the man whose life was changed through a car share. Also, the Olympic medallist who's part of Elim Loughborough tells how he fought through. Plus all your favourite regular columns and features.
