Ever the "football" enthusiast, the chat begins with some soccer talk (priorities, after all!).

Listen for Glyn's and his campus pastor Mark Foster's strategy to help stop Englanders from being "over-churched".

Episode #16: Lee Fields - Let's Talk About Millennials Oct 23, 2018

Show notes

Millennials... it seems that everyone has an opinion about this very unique demographic, even (especially!) the Church. But what if we have it all wrong? What if Church leaders pulled a "Paul & Timothy" approach; so rather than mining for what's wrong with Millennials, and instead started focusing on how to understand them, resulting in embracing, encouraging, and equipping this emerging generation of leaders? CJ and Brad welcome in a "typical" Millennial (if that's such a thing!), Bayside Church's Production Pastor Lee Fields, for a stimulating and enlightening conversation about America's most populace age group. (((We apologize for the weird audio during the interview, pesky gear issues...)))
