Shane Lynch has coined a word for his bad boy years: “Shaneanigans”. The Boyzone singer spent much of his 20s – between concerts and autograph signings – drinking, swearing and getting into scraps. Around that time, he also became fascinated by the occult, the evidence of which is still visible in the tattoos etched on his skin. This “anti-God, anti-Christ” season became a problem when Lynch later became a Christian, so he added more ink to alter the meanings. In this interview with Premier Christianity's Megan Cornwell, Shane shares the full story.

It's one of the best-known megachurches in America, producing worship songs that are sung by congregations around the world, but, according to Jenn Johnson, when it comes to the body of Christ, Bethel is probably akin to an armpit.

She says this in jest, of course, but if you’re looking for an up-close-and-personal account of the ministry, Johnson is your go-to. The 41-year-old has been leading worship in Redding, California, with her husband, Brian, since she was 18.

During that time, she has seen “crazy” supernatural phenomena, including the much-discussed gold dust that reportedly fell for hours during one church worship service. In this in depth interview with Premier Christianity's deputy editor Megan Cornwell, Jenn shares the full story of her life, faith and ministry.

God is shaking things up! That's according to the general secretary of Churches Together in England. Bishop Mike Royal was selected to pray for King Charles at the coronation and has been dubbed a “Christian man of influence”, but he's far more concerned with how the Church works together for the good of society than how others see him. Moreover, he's worried there's "too much cult of personality in the Church". In this interview with Premier Christianity's Emma Fowle, Bishop Mike talks about his pioneering work with Christian charities Transforming Lives for Good (TLG) and the Cinnamon Network, hits back at the false dichotomy between sharing the gospel with words and actions, and predicts what the Church might look like in 2033.
