Summary
What is God doing right now in the Church? And are we actually ready for it? In this episode of the Magnified Ministries Podcast , Father Peter sits down with Anglican priest Stephen Foster from Oxford for a powerful and hope-filled conversation about a shift happening across the world. From London to Chicago, something new is emerging. We are moving from a post-Christian culture to a pre-Christian one, and with it comes a surprising openness, especially among Gen Z, to faith, Scripture, and a real relationship with Jesus. Stephen shares firsthand stories of young adults encountering God with little to no prior exposure to Christianity, while Father Peter reflects on what he is seeing at Saint Clement Parish. Together, they explore what it means to minister in a time where people are no longer rejecting the Church, but encountering it for the very first time. They talk about the growing spiritual hunger in a generation that was told they did not need God, the importance of creating space for real encounter, and how the Church can better respond when someone walks in searching. This conversation is both grounding and inspiring, pointing to the reality that something is happening right now and it is worth paying attention to. The question is not whether God is moving. The question is whether we are ready to respond.
