Reflections Podcast 13.09.2026 – In conversation with Ife Akintunde.

Hello and welcome to this edition of Reflections, the programme from Torch Trust which focuses on faith and disability in today's world.

I'm Marilyn Baker and I'm looking forward to being with you for the next half an hour.

Torch staff and trustees have been contributing articles to Premiere Magazine over the past few months.

You may remember hearing Torch CEO Sarah Dawkins in conversation with our producer Lynn Davies a couple of weeks ago.

Lynn talked about misdirected healing and about how other people's discomfort with disability can sometimes lead them to overstep personal boundaries.

Today we're going to hear from another of the contributors.

Torch trustee Ife Akintunde has written about the ways which God has used blind people throughout the Bible, not simply despite their blindness, but sometimes through their experience of it.

Here he is in conversation with Sarah Dawkins.
