How far would your go for your faith? A court in Ghana has charged a father of neglect, after he refused to allow his son to receive a blood transfusion, which might have saved his life.
The man has pleaded not guilty to charges of negligence, arguing that his faith prohibits blood transfusions.
In a separate development, the leader of the Anglican church in Nigeria,Bishop Peter Akinola, has asked the country's many Christian polygamists to give up their extra wives, as the issue could "make a mockery" of the church.
Until now converts to Christianity have been allowed to keep their polygamous relationships.
How much would you sacrifice for your faith?Are the beliefs of your faith non-negotiable? Or do you feel your faith give you values to aim for but which you struggle to meet all the time? Should there be a limit to how much faith dictates your lifestyle?
