Radical · Gen Z and God: Is the Church Answering Young People's Prayers? (Lamorna Ash) · 30 Jul 2026 podcast

What do you think that movement got wrong or failed to account for?

Why have the dreams of my 16-year-old self not come true?

We have to say that Richard Dawkins isn't here and he might push back on that.

But I do think there is a general point that maybe secular society has failed to provide answers to things like meaning and community and the non-rational side of life.

And do you think there was just a bit of a void there that young people, and perhaps especially in a time that feels like turbulent and lonely...

new answers were needed or maybe the old answers had to come back?

And do you think there's much of a response from young people to what the Pope said about AI?

And if people are turning to Christianity for human connection or meaning, why does it have to be Christianity?

Why couldn't people go to a sports club or join a political party?

Why is that the solution?

I'm so interested in this phenomenon of Christian influences.

I've heard people say that, or Christians would say, the traditional media is very secular.

If you want to get your message out, it's quite hard.

Whereas on social media, there's suddenly a level playing field.

And if you are a Christian, you can start a TikTok or you can go onto Twitter and you can reach people that way.

How big was this phenomenon of Christian influences and how, I mean, were they driving conversions that you saw?

Is there an identity thing, too?

Do you think people are looking for an identity in the world and a label or something that they can say, this is who I am, this is what I believe?

Do you think that's a part of the appeal?

I hope you're enjoying my conversation with Lamorna Ash.
