Nomad, Christian community, mission and the future of the church.

This month, we're joined by Nigel Pimlet, who will be giving us some food for our thinking in the area of

youth work particularly in relation to mission and new forms of church so you've got all of this

free of charge from the kindness of our hearts on nomad podcast delighted to welcome to my podcast this month, Nigel Pimlet.

We're going to chat to Nigel.

All about youth work and post-Christendom and mission and church and all that kind of stuff.

Nigel, welcome to the show.

Hi, thank you.

Can you tell us a bit about yourself?

Yes, I'm in my 40s. I've been working with young people for 20 odd years. I currently work for Frontier Youth Trust as the Deputy Chief

Executive Officer. I live in Birmingham and most of my time spent training youth workers, researching things around the church,

mission, young people, doing some writing and resourcing.

And I also do a lot of fundraising and PR things for Frontier Youth Trust.

And currently I do some youth work in Birmingham Children's Hospital with those young people who have some

adolescent mental health challenges.

Brilliant.

Tell us a little bit about Frontier Youth Trust.

What's that all about?

Well, it's been going about 40 years.

It's been a charity for about 1415.

Its strep line is a mission with young people at risk.

And I think that is what it is really.
