God can mend all of the social problems afflicting Britain, but it might not necessarily happen in the way some people expect, says the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Speaking to around 50 young people at the Solace pub church in Cardiff at the weekend, Dr Rowan Williams said God’s way to mend Broken Britain “is through us”.

“God doesn’t step down out of the sky, shooting thunderbolts out of his fingers. He comes down at a human level and says ‘You are going to do this, I trust you’,” he was quoted as saying by the South Wales Echo.

“That’s how God mends – through you and me.” the rest
