Join us for Lewis's yearly update as he reflects on his journey from self-proclaimed atheism to vibrant Christian faith and youth leadership.
Lewis shares how book clubs during Australia's bushfire season led to reading "Silence" and C.S. Lewis's "Mere Christianity" with friends. But intellectual arguments weren't what ultimately convinced him. It was the radical love at Soul Revival Church, where adults genuinely cared for teenagers and his rough friends were welcomed.
We discuss the transformative power of intergenerational church community, why Lewis believes hanging out only with your age group keeps you immature, and how immediately serving in youth ministry shaped his faith. Lewis opens up about experiencing his grandfather's death as a Christian versus his non-Christian family, discovering grace as what "keeps life going," and why he's increasingly convinced Christianity offers something no other religion can provide.
The conversation challenges the assumption that you need a dramatic crisis to come to faith. Lewis reminds us that ultimately, "it's just you and Jesus" and that's enough.
