Is Gen Z more spiritually curious than other generations? Why are young adults going to church more? And what does Gen Z need from the Church? 

In this episode of The Quiet Revival Podcast, Andrew and Rhiannon are joined by Michelle and Michael from The Way – a digital ministry reaching young people on social media and on the streets. 

Together, they examine the unexpected rise in church attendance among younger generations – and why this trend isn’t unique to Gen Z. 

Hit play to find out how we can benefit from intergenerational relationships within church, why young Christians are confident to talk about their faith, and how the Church should be a safe space to host difficult conversations about contemporary issues.
