Welcome to our weekly guide to Radio Netherlands Worldwide's English Service - a list of the new programs coming up on Radio Netherlands Worldwide this week, beginning on Saturday.
SATURDAY 3 APRIL
*** The State We're In ***
Courtroom dramatics: Rob Fransman's parents were murdered in Sobibor prison camp during WWII. John Demjanjuk is on trial for being a prison guard at the camp. Rob explains what attending the trial in person means, and doesn't mean, in his personal quest for justice.
Chrislam: Nigeria has seen a lot of bloody conflict between Christians and Muslims, especially recently. But in one community, the two faiths have melded together in what's called "Chrislam". We hear from Christians and Muslims who worship together, including a Christian pastor and his Muslim wife.
House churches: Christianity in China is being persecuted as it grows in popularity. Underground churches are being demolished and their leaders thrown into labour camps. The vast network of government informants and enforcers are ensuring that underground churches remain there: underground.
