In a time when many churches are facing decline, especially among younger generations, discipleship leaders are being called to think differently, lead intentionally, and rely fully on the power of the Holy Spirit. Church revitalization isn’t about returning to old models—it’s about making space for God to move in new and powerful ways through transformed lives and authentic community.

In today's episode, host Brian Daniel welcomes Sarah Jackson to discuss her work with the Church Revitalization Trust (CRT) and their mission to renew and revitalize churches across the UK and beyond. Sarah shares honest insights into the challenges churches face today - particularly in engaging Gen Z—and offers a hopeful vision of what’s possible when churches create transformational environments that are both Spirit-led and deeply rooted in relational discipleship.

The conversation explores the impact of the Alpha course in helping people explore faith in a welcoming and accessible way, as well as the critical need for churches to engage their communities, foster discipleship, and equip leaders to shepherd spiritual renewal. Sarah also highlights the exciting movement among young people encountering Jesus, and what church leaders can do to nurture these moments into lasting transformation.

If you’re a small group leader or pastor longing to see your church come alive again, this episode will reignite your hope and offer practical steps toward Spirit-empowered revitalization.

If this episode encouraged you, please take a moment to rate, review, and share it with someone else passionate about church renewal and disciple-making.
