Could it be revival? The surprising UK youth culture shift towards Jesus - with Glen Scrivener
For decades, the trend across Western countries seemed one-way: away from faith in Jesus Christ. But could the tide be turning?
Evangelist and author Glen Scrivener outlines signs of a "quiet revival" emerging, particularly among young people in the United Kingdom (and how things are different in Australia).
Drawing on new research from the UK Bible Society and reflecting on wider cultural shifts, Glen discusses why the story of secularisation may not be as inevitable as once thought — and why a surprising number of young adults are returning to church.
We also reflect on influences like Jordan Peterson, the role of community in a hyper-individualistic culture, and the opportunities — and challenges — now facing churches in both the UK and Australia.
Is this the beginning of a new movement towards Christ?
