Where are all the men in church?
A church survey has found a ratio of two men to three women in our congregations, with most UK churches having double the number of single women to men. So why is church less appealing to men? And what are some of the creative ways we can reach out to those put off by our Sunday services? Esther Higham spoke to Gareth Thompson from Kingdom Wrestling and Tristan Lury, the founder of Bridge The Gap Football.
'Administration is a spiritual gift'
If you work or live with young people, you might be used to them avoiding phone calls. A USwitch survey has found a quarter of those aged 18-34 never answer their phone. So, why are young people so averse to calls? And how do we help them toughen up on their soft skills? James Brumwell is the Head of Ops at Gas Street Church. He spoke to Esther Higham about his love of voice notes, the church undervaluing "the spiritual gift of administration", and spreadsheets being vital for building the kingdom.
