When the pandemic started, we paused on the episodes we recorded during last year's Rooted in Jesus Conference.

Though some contexts will have certainly changed, there is still much to learn from these conversations with incredible leaders across the Episcopal Church. In this episode, our hosts have a conversation with 2 Campus Ministers about Campus Ministry, what serving t...

How are we doing however many days into the pandemics we currently face? What brings up feelings of self-worth and not-enoughness? Where do we find hope in God?

In this episode, our hosts along with special guest Samantha Clare, take a hard look at where we are and where we are going and share their own insights. T...
Mental Health is an ongoing concern for all people during the pandemic. People are suffering, and it is important that we remember to talk about it.

In the last episode, we shared that we would be releasing some new episodes focused on how we serve as Youth Workers in a pandemic.

The conversation focused on Sunday school and why the current model is broken. It is a hard conversation for churche...
Let's be real about it. Things are challenging right now. We, as Professional Youth Workers that happen to have a Podcast, do not pretend to have any more wisdom than anyone else during these times. What we do know is we are better when we talk about it. And we feel like this episode is an honest conversation about how we are adapting to serve our young people. Let's keep at it. We are all connected together. #Churchisadapting
