Much has changed in the past 10 years since Christianity Today published a cover story by Collin Hansen titled “Young, Restless, Reformed.” At the time, the YRR movement stood in contrast to the Emerging Church movement, which has since largely faded from view. Several of the figures profiled in Hansen’s report have left their ministries, and others have risen to take their place. Ten years later, it’s clear that the article, and Hansen’s book that followed, allowed many young Christians to see that what God had been doing in them personally or in their churches locally was part of a larger movement of God globally.

On this podcast, Justin Taylor interviews Collin Hansen about the roots and fruits of the YRR movement, lessons he and others have learned, and whether YRR can still thrive with the institutionalization that comes as any movement ages and matures. They also discuss how shifts in our cultural conversation have also shifted the issues of concern within the movement.
Free eBook by Rebecca McLaughlin: ‘Jesus Through the Eyes of Women’
If the women who followed Jesus could tell you what he was like, what would they say?
Jesus’s treatment of women was revolutionary. That’s why they flocked to him. Wherever he went, they sought him out. Women sat at his feet and tugged at his robes. They came to him for healing, for forgiveness, and for answers. So what did women see in this first-century Jewish rabbi and what can we learn as we look through their eyes today?
In Jesus Through the Eyes of Women, Rebecca McLaughlin explores the life-changing accounts of women who met the Lord. By entering the stories of the named and unnamed women in the Gospels, this book gives readers a unique lens to see Jesus as these women did and marvel at how he loved them in return.
