Sean Fletcher is at Way Church in Wigan, one of the fastest-growing congregations in the UK, to join hundreds in worship and to explore how it’s serving the community through its purpose-built centre.

Sean learns that behind Way Church’s large, ultra-modern building is a hundred-year history of serving the people of Wigan, and young leader Ben Tarbuck explains the church’s mission of helping all people find their way to God.

In one of the community spaces, Sean joins a creative clay class and meets people from different backgrounds who have found faith and friendship there. And in the church’s auditorium, Sean joins internationally acclaimed singer and worship leader Jake Isaac to get to know the man behind the music and how his faith journey brought him from London to Wigan.

With classic hymns and fantastic contemporary worship led by Jake Isaac and his band.
