S2:37 | Rethinking Sundays: Why House Church Fits the Needs of Next Gen Campus Ministry - Part 1 (ft. Alex and Kristen Song)
Episode Description
In this episode of the REACH podcast, we explore how Alex and Kristen Song at the University of Maryland are reimagining the traditional Sunday service for a new generation of college students. Drawing from the history of seeker-sensitive mega churches and the organic Jesus Movement, we trace how the church’s attractional service model flourished in past decades but no longer fits an age marked by mistrust of institutions and a hunger for relational, interactive discipleship. Alex and Kristen unpack what happens in the room on Sundays, why a familial environment with shared meals, kids in the mix, and extended life-on-life discipleship resonates so deeply with mostly freshman students, and how this has led to clear salvation and Lordship decisions as they raise up future student leaders.
