Talk, Read, Play offers a basic guide to help steer the best way through raising children. In this book, Cristina outlines a strategy that involves total concentration, in 25-minute bursts, across three areas of engagement: talk, read and play. This method gives us the opportunity to make the greatest impact in the time we spend parenting. It seeks to free the full-time parents to take regular breaks and the full-time working parent from the guilt that hangs over them when they are not engaging with their child.

In this short essay, Christina Odone explores whether God is no longer welcome in the West and whether religious followers have been silenced in our newly secular society.
