The Effective Ministry Podcast

Following on from last episode, Dr. Sarah Holmes takes some Q&A about her research on the post-Covid church in the UK.

What was the difference between spiritual health in the home vs. in church programs?
How competent did parents feel about discipling their children?
What does relational discipleship--over and above church programs--actually look like?
How should the pandemic reshape our vision for youth and children's ministry long term?
How did the pandemic affect both the child's and the parent's mental health and how can the church respond?

From Dr Sarah Holmes:
