Bp. Ceirion Dewar - From Cultural Christianity to the Power of Baptism & Transformative Discipleship

Bishop Ceirion H. Dewar - From Cultural Christianity to the Power of Baptism and Transformative Discipleship

This episode Peter sits down with Bishop Dewar—missionary bishop in the Confessing Anglican Church, podcaster, and vocal voice on faith and culture—for a raw and riveting conversation. From his full-circle journey through high-church Anglicanism, Pentecostal fire, and back to liturgical roots, Bishop Dewar unpacks the transformative "watery grave of redemption" in baptism, sharing stories of recent seaside immersions that have sparked spiritual excitement across the UK. He critiques the Church of England's slide into cultural appeasement, laments the rise of secularism and incompatible ideologies, and celebrates the messy rumblings of revival—from million-strong prayers at the Unite the Kingdom rally to a Gen Z hunger for authentic Christ-following amid societal chaos. If you've sensed a shift in Britain's soul, this is your wake-up call.

Bishop Ceirion Dewar serves as Missionary Bishop in the Confessing Anglican Church's UK Diocese, championing revival and authentic discipleship. Raised in high-church Anglo-Catholicism, he experienced a Pentecostal shift at 14, leading to evangelical ordination as deacon at 19 and priest by 22. He became the sole non-U.S. member of the Association of Independent Christian Churches, consecrated as Bishop of International Affairs at 28.
At 49, this married father promotes public baptisms as the "watery grave of redemption," critiquing cultural Christianity's decline amid secularism. A podcaster (CDTV), TV contributor, author, and speaker, he calls for a militant, Spirit-filled British church: "There's got to be more" in Christ.
