* Pavel Cerny: I try to speak only when I need to (interview)
How to lead the church in changing times and how to resist the pressures of liberalism? Is there a limit to unity and cooperation with other Christians? Pavel Černý recalls not only his encounters with the Pope and representatives of other churches, but also his father and grandfather, who were an example of faithfulness in the midst of persecution.

* topic: The art of rest
How does the Jewish Sabbath relate to Christian Sunday? What does a day of rest mean to us? Why do we need regeneration? And what if we are afraid of "doing nothing"? Rest through the eyes of theologians, pastors, therapists and physiologist (Jiří Bukovský, Lukáš Sztefek, Kateřina Vávrová, Petr Nešpor and Marek Bužga).
Missionary Jiří Dohnal shares his experience with burnout syndrome and caring for preachers.
