Global Doctrine, Local Stewardship: A Roger Mitchell Reflection
November 1, 2025·0 comments·zg
I keep seeing headlines about how young people are returning to church faster than at any point in recent memory. Not for God necessarily. For meaning. For reset. For the feeling of coming home. Roger Mitchell knows exactly why - he spelled it out to Grant Williams and Demetri Kofinas last week.
He said it plainly, in terms of his experience and what this feeling offers:
When I go to the church, the house of those parables, I feel very welcome. It's my moment on a Sunday to reset to have a pit stop to think about some of the things I've done wrong, some of the things I've done because life puts you in a frame of mind that you get your armor on. Sunday is a moment where you're allowed to just take it off and say, 'Am I sure I'm still on the right track?'

Roger knows that church-going experience doesn’t exclusively belong to him. So he’s not surprised at all why younger people are fast discovering church. In the most Roger way, he boils it down to how the ancient religions have been focus-grouped longer, better, and more tightly than any product available on the internet's infinite shelves.
