The importance of fostering intergenerational church communities comes to life through insights into why generational connections matter

JOIN MELANIE CAVE, MANAGING DIRECTOR of Roots, as she welcomes Suzi Farrant, co-author of Being an Intergenerational Church and Young People and Young Adults Development Worker for the Church of Scotland, to explore the concept of intergenerational ministry.

This episode addresses common objections and concerns surrounding the shift towards a more intergenerational church community. Suzi shares her journey of discovering the importance of connecting all generations within the church and offers practical insights and compelling theological perspectives on why it’s crucial for the modern church.
