Young adult journeys to faith: Implications for church life

For clergy and church leaders, this webinar explores what the changing faith journeys of young adults mean for parish ministry today

THE UNDERSTANDING YOUNG ADULT JOURNEYS to Faith in the Church of England report highlights significant changes in how young adults explore faith, connect with Christian community and engage with church life.

Designed specifically for clergy and church leaders, this webinar moves beyond the findings themselves to focus on what they mean for local churches. It explores how changing cultural realities are reshaping the contexts in which young adults encounter faith, and considers how churches can adapt their ministry in response.

Through discussion with practitioners and young adults, questions include:

  • What do young adults value in a church community?
  • How are digital and in-person experiences shaping faith and belonging?
  • What barriers can prevent young adults from engaging with church life?
  • How can churches create pathways from welcome to participation and discipleship?
  • What practical changes can church leaders make in response to the report’s findings?
