BBC Radio Ulster - Sunday Sequence, Is there room for dissenters in the 21st Century Church?

How important is it for churches to encourage dissent? Where does it cross the line?

There is a proud tradition of dissent in many churches although often the dissenters are only lauded long after their passing. Should disagreement be given greater encouragement?

From Martin Luther to the present day the role of dissenters has been critical to shaping churches, how they interpret scripture and how they apply it to the modern day - but should dissent be given greater encouragement?

Presenter Elaine McGee is in conversation with the Reverend John Dunlop, Father Iggy O'Donovan and theologian Elaine Storkey.
