Phoebe Turner - St Nic’s Durham - Gen Z Faith
In this episode of the P3 Hub Podcast, Lance Peppler sits down with Phoebe Turner, a Student Worker at St Nic’s Durham and the Young Adult Mission Enabler for the Durham Diocese.
Phoebe shares her powerful testimony of encountering God at age 17 after growing up without faith, simply by whispering a desperate prayer. She discusses her current work on the frontlines of student ministry, offering a firsthand perspective on the "Quiet Revival" happening among Gen Z.
From the importance of "lingering" in prayer to the research behind how young adults find spiritual role models in an influencer culture, this conversation is packed with encouragement and insight for anyone interested in the future of the church.
Topics Discussed
Phoebe’s Testimony: How a moment of desperation at age 17 led to a life-changing encounter with the Holy Spirit and baptism as a student.
Student Ministry Today: A look inside the weekly rhythm at St Nic’s Durham, from student nights to Alpha courses.
The "Quiet Revival": Is it real? Phoebe confirms the trends of young adults - especially men - walking into church seeking stability and a firm foundation in a "shaky" world.
Seeds Sown: The connection between current student revival and the fruits of children’s ministry years ago.
Church of England Initiatives: The record intake for the Ministry Experience Scheme and the push for young adult representation at General Synod.
Prayer & The Holy Spirit: Phoebe’s advice on how to hear God by slowing down, not rushing away from His presence, and trusting "gut feelings" as spiritual nudges.
