Talking Youth Ministry - A Youthscape Podcast

The team respond to the recent government-commissioned report around young people who are Not in Education, Employment or Training. What are the headlines- and how can Christians and churches support and respond?

Lucy, Rachel and Martin explore two big topics today- the youth culture phenomenon known as ‘maxxing’, and the question of how we best support young people as they navigate exams. Should we be their revision buddies, or their safe space to escape the constant demands of the school system? Martin and Rachel disagree- and Lucy referees!

Rachel and Martin are joined by Jeronne Rudder to debrief this week’s Youthscape & St Mellitus Annual Lecture: Radical Hope. As well as reflecting on the events of the evening, they talk through some of the audience questions that didn’t quite get asked… and after all that highbrow activity, there’s still plenty of space for a totally appropriate round of Organised Fun…

The team discuss the recent local Government election results which saw a surge in support for Reform, and ask what the impact might be on young people. There’s an Ask Us Anything question about how to manage volunteers who also happen to be your friends, and amongst the continued deluge of Night Hike feedback, Rachel and Martin search for Lucy’s long-trailed organised fun spectacular.

Our mailbag runneth over, after what appeared to be a series of utterly uncontroversial discussions on night hikes, 1-to-1 mentoring, and bedtime reading.

Plus: organised, and entirely replicable fun... just not the one that was advertised.
