Olympic Faith
As the Paris 2024 Olympic Games begin, Laura Wright is in Edinburgh to celebrate the faith of Olympians and Paralympians past and present. And she speaks to HRH the Princess Royal to reflect on the legacy of Scottish sporting hero and Christian missionary Eric Liddell.\n \nAt St Giles’ Cathedral, Laura joins a special service commemorating Eric, 100 years after he dramatically won gold at the Paris 1924 Olympics. The story of Eric’s 400m triumph was later made famous in the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire, and Eric’s eldest daughter tells Laura about her father’s great faith and shares the story of him choosing not to run in his favoured 100m as the heats fell on a Sunday. And the Princess Royal, Patron of the Eric Liddell 100 initiative, reflects on Eric’s achievements and values, and what they can teach young people today.\n \nWe revisit the time Paralympian Kadeena Cox spoke to Radzi Chinyanganya about relying on God through tragedy and triumph. And there’s another chance to see Team GB swimmer Daniel Jervis sharing his testimony with Katherine Jenkins.\n \nFeaturing the following hymns and songs from Edinburgh and beyond.\n\n1.\tLet All The World In Every Corner Sing - Stockbridge Church, Edinburgh\n2.\tBe Still My Soul - St George's Church, Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne\n3.\tJesus Is The Name We Honour - Pontio Arts Centre, Bangor\n4.\tJust Be - Maurillia Simpson and Laura Wright\n5.\tCalon Lân – Luke Evans\n6.\tLord For The Years – Canongate Kirk, Edinburgh
