Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How can the Church mentor and disciple Gen Z? With The Way UK
Q: How does The Way approach Bible study for young people?
The Way splits content into 101 and 202 tracks, offering accessible Bible study that starts with basic questions about Jesus and prayer, then tackles tougher topics like slavery, sexuality, and dating, all delivered through short-form and long-form video to engage youth where they are.
How can the Church mentor and disciple Gen Z? With The Way UK
Q: What's going on with Gen Z and religion?
Gen Z is showing more spiritual openness and Bible engagement than previous cohorts, with lots of curiosity and confidence to explore faith, often sparked by visible faith among public figures and a broader digital culture that makes scripture more accessible.
Encountering God through creation: Wild Church and pilgrimage
Q: How do you balance experiential outdoor activities with solid biblical grounding?
Experiences are the entry point, but each activity is anchored in scripture; after the walk, people are invited to sit, discuss, and reflect on how what they've encountered relates to God and to biblical narratives, then potentially join Bible studies or church life.
Encountering God through creation: Wild Church and pilgrimage
Q: Give us examples of how you engage people through nature and the Gower Pilgrimage Way.
We use a 50-mile pilgrimage route visiting medieval churches to invite people to pray, share stories of life changes, and experience a secular pathway that reveals there's more to life than just what you're stepping away from or searching for.
Navigating the Bible: How to build your church’s confidence in Scripture
Q: How can we get ready in raising Bible confidence within the congregation?
By focusing on head confidence first—navigation and interpretation—then expanding to heart and hands; use practical resources like the Bible Course, promote regular reading with others, and provide pathways beyond Sunday sermons.
