Community isn't enough. It never was. The research from Stu's PhD keeps showing that the people who stayed at Soul Revival Youth Community were the ones who became Christians — and the community worked because the gospel was proclaimed clearly every single week.

Joel, Stu and Tim unpack the difference between two kinds of belonging, the commitments group, and why the hip hop night before the Cronulla riots is one of the best illustrations of what gospel-centred community actually produces.

Soul Revival's Year 9-12 leaders are invited to Youthworks' LiT camp this January, where they'll explore Relentless Hope through the prophet Micah and discover what it means to lead with justice, walk with humility, and live with hope. Registration opens Wednesday 3 June.

Manufactured greatness doesn't connect, and it turns out the same is true in church ministry. Stu's PhD research is revealing six themes from the Soul Revival Youth Community, and the one that keeps surfacing above the others is this: relationships were the front door. Not events. Not programs. The relationships.

Habakkuk doesn't open with a polished speech. He opens with a cry. Tim Anderson introduces one of the most honest, most human books in the Bible.

Behind a wedding vow written by ChatGPT, there is no I who says I do. Joel and Tim trace a thread from new creation theology through rally driving, unwrapping CDs and Zoom fatigue — and build a framework for asking the question every church leader and parent should be asking about technology: what exactly have we traded?

Nahum 3 is the kind of passage we instinctively want to put distance between ourselves but that instinct is exactly the problem.

From the $7 meal that structurally builds equality into the community, to teams not tasks as a theological conviction rather than a management technique, to the meeting 25 years ago where they cancelled all the plans and prayed — Joel, Stu and Tim get usefully specific.

Running a church well doesn't mean running it like a business. Stu's concept of organised messiness — and the framework of ministry slide that sits underneath it — offers a way of managing church that has grace structurally built in from the start.

Joel, Stu and Tim work through why efficiency isn't a godly value, and what it actually looks like to hold people and mission together at the same time.

Community Groups are back for Term 2 as we delve into the Old Testament with Nahum and Habakkuk…

Church attendance in the Sutherland Shire has dropped from 11% to around 1% in a generation. Newcomers to churches have more than halved since 2001. And a generation of young people is quietly assuming someone else is handling the faith formation of their kids. Joel, Stu and Tim sit down with the principal of Shire Christian School to ask the question every Christian parent is avoiding.
