   Gemma Foster: Discipling Young Adults, Gen Z & the Future of the Church

   What does the research actually tell us about discipling young adults and Gen Z and what can the church do differently? In this episode of Grow and Go with Em Tyler, I sit down with the Revd Dr Gemma Foster, newly appointed Archdeacon of Bournemouth, mum of three and researcher who spent ten years exploring the discipleship of young adults aged 18–29 in the Church of England. Rather than starting with the question, “Why are young adults leaving the church?”, Gemma’s research asks a different question: what is actually helping young adults grow in faith? We talk about young adult discipleship, biblical literacy, vocation, community, spiritual formation and the future of the church and discover some surprisingly hopeful findings about what is happening among a generation often described through the lens of decline. We talk about: ✨ Why young adults aren’t the problem and what the research actually shows✨ What a “discipleship habitus” is and why it matters more than any five-point plan✨ Why the Bible is the unexpected front door for a new generation coming to faith✨ How your church’s biblical literacy might be more important than you think✨ What the most effective generation to invest in young adults actually is (and it might surprise you)✨ Why vocation isn’t about having it all figured out ✨ How to be the kind of community that helps people grow, not just show up Is there a young adult in your world right now (at church, in your family, in your neighbourhood) who might just need someone to ask them a good question this week? Leave a comment (%%half_magic_comments_url%%) We are living in a moment of genuine spiritual movement in this nation. This conversation will help you know what to do with it.

   Stasi Eldredge: How to Actually Know God (Not Just Know About Him) on the Grow and Go with Em Tyler Podcast

   What if everything you’ve ever done, everything that’s ever been done to you, and every season you’ve walked through that felt like it disqualified you . . . what if none of it takes you out of the grace of God? This week I sit down with Stasi Eldredge—New York Times bestselling author, co-founder of Wild at Heart, teacher, speaker, and someone whose books have sold nearly three million copies and changed women’s lives all over the world. Her latest book, The Ladder of Love, is out now and it is such a beautiful invitation: not to do more, not to perform better, but to actually know God. Stasi is so honest in this conversation and in the book about the things that keep us from receiving what we already possess. Shame. Hurt. Wrong theology absorbed along the way. She shares her own story with vulnerability in such a way to lead others to freedom. If you have ‘little ears’ around, this may be a conversation best saved for later when you can listen alone. We talk about: ✨ What the ladder metaphor is and why it starts with the firm foundation of who we are in Christ✨ The difference between knowing facts about God and knowing him by experience✨ Why shame is an enemy and what it does to our relationship with God✨ Stasi’s own story and why she shares the parts of it she’d find easiest to hide✨ Why emotional healing and spiritual growth need to happen together✨ How to get back into alignment with the true father heart of God when your theology has been shaped by wounds✨ The rung on the ladder Stasi was least familiar with — and what it taught her about Jesus Is there a way of knowing God — a rung on the ladder — that feels far away or out of reach for you right now? Leave a comment (%%half_magic_comments_url%%) The Ladder of Love by Stasi Eldredge is out now. Go and get yourself a copy — this one is worth it.

   Grow + Go | Every Table an Altar with Pastor Ian Simkins

   What if the most significant mission field you have isn’t somewhere you have to go — it’s somewhere you already are? We live in a world that is more connected than ever and lonelier than ever. And somewhere in the gap between those two things, I think the church (collectively and individually) has a role to play. This week Pastor Ian Simkins is on the Grow and Go with Em Tyler Podcast — pastor, writer, husband, dad, and author of the brand new Every Table an Altar: Reclaiming Connection in a World of Division, Distraction, and Loneliness. Ian has spent over twenty years in pastoral ministry, and what keeps coming up — in his church, in his community, in conversations with people who look like they have it all together — is loneliness. Deep, chronic, surprising loneliness. And he’s convinced that the table is one of God’s most underrated answers to it. We talk about why Jesus sat at far more tables than he ever flipped, what it means for your table to become an altar, and what it looks like to show up for the people already in your life with genuine, unhurried presence. We also talk about what it takes to keep growing personally when your relationship with Jesus is also your job — and Ian shares some of the simple, countercultural practices that are keeping him grounded. We talk about: ✨ The loneliness epidemic✨ How Jesus used the table to reorder power, welcome outsiders, and bring the kingdom close✨ Why you don’t need the gift of hospitality, a beautiful home, or a photo-ready charcuterie board✨ The difference between entertaining and biblical hospitality (and why it matters)✨ One simple prayer that could change how you see every ordinary interaction✨ Why the presence of your phone — even face down — is doing more damage than you realise✨ What it looks like to be truly present with the people already in your life✨ How to keep growing with Jesus when ministry is also your profession Is there one table in your life — literal or metaphorical — where you could show up with a little more kingdom imagination this week? Leave a comment below, or simply reply. I’d love to hear. Is there one table in your life — literal or metaphorical — where you could show up with a little more kingdom imagination this week?
