Rev Canon Philip Mounstephen is the head of one of the oldest para church organisations in the UK. The Church Mission Society was set up after a group of Christians gathered together to abolish the slave trade. 200 years on, the organisation aims to see people engaged in God's mission all around the world. He talks about his formative years, being raised in the Anglican church; finding God for himself and why he shouldn't have gone into teaching. He shares his views on youth ministry and has a message to church leaders and offers simple advice on how churches can better engage in their local communities.
