Laura Wright is in Cambridge to explore faith outside the pulpit and the pew and meets Christians living out their faith in offices, laboratories and police stations. \n\nAs she explores how faith can flourish on the nine-to-five, Laura meets Ros Loaker, whose organisation facilitates faith-based workplace groups to connect and empower Christians. She then joins one such group in a Cambridge finance company and finds out the benefits of meeting with other Christians in the workplace. Laura then heads out on the beat to find out how faith strengthens and encourages Christians in the police force. \n\nWe also join Christian scientist Dr Sigourney Bonner, whose faith is central to her work in cancer research and in the initiative she co-founded, Black in Cancer. \n\nWith hymns and music which speaks of our unique gifts from God.\n\n1.
