Is the Church aware of the wider culture’s revived interest in faith, especially among young people? And is it ready to meet them where they’re at? In this episode, Andrew and Rhiannon discuss ways of increasing Bible confidence among churchgoers and seekers alike. They look at two of Bible Society’s new resources: the new and improved edition of The Bible Course and Andrew’s new book God’s Story which addresses the current dilemma: young people are interested in the Bible but easily put off by its more challenging aspects.
