The Redeemed Man
Who’s Informing You—and Forming You? with Terry Parkman
Where is the church headed, and who will lead it? As a pastor himself, founder of Next Generation Leader, and author of the thoroughly researched book Future Church, Terry Parkman has thought a lot about those questions. In searching for the answers, he’s discovered that what Gen Z wants from life, culture, and faith differs in some surprising ways from what previous generations wanted—and what many churches currently provide. In this week’s episode of The Redeemed Man, Terry talks with Nate Dewberry about the future of the church and how church leaders can adapt to the changing needs of newer generations. They also cover a wide range of topics that will resonate with today’s men, from overcoming self-doubt to re-centering ourselves so that the ways we seek freedom and individuality don’t end up becoming a prison.
