Faith and Fatherhood
To celebrate Father’s Day, Aled Jones meets inspirational fathers who are trying to show their paternal love to their children, whatever it takes.\n\nHe visits Liberty Farm in Staffordshire to find out about its work with men who have left prison or who are at risk of going there. MOBO Award-winning Christian rapper Guvna B tells Radzi Chinyanganya how the death of his father affected him emotionally, spiritually and musically, as well as talking about how he tackles being a dad.\n\nWe meet the pastor from Peckham who is going the extra mile to help his teenage daughter achieve her cycling dreams. There is congregational music old and new from across the country, plus a special performance by singer songwriter Steph Macleod of his composition O Perfect Father.
