Episode 2: Kids These Days
In this episode Lief and Jimmy ask the question, “What’s up with kids these days?” Students are more stressed, anxious, and lonely than ever, and that means the way we do youth ministry might have to adapt. As we consider how we might better understand and respond to this new generation, we dive into two recently published books, iGen by Jean Twenge https://www.amazon.com/iGen-Super-Connected-Rebellious-Happy-Adulthood/dp/1501151983 , and Youth Ministry 2027 by Brock Morgan https://theyouthcartel.com/product/youth-ministry-2027/ , and interview a number of different youth pastors from around the country about ways they think we can shape our ministries to better reach and love students.
0:45-16:06 – Introduction and Preview of the Youth Leader Conference
16:35-22:50 – Coffee Break: Your stories of how God is working in the ministries.
23:12-33:05 – Training Intro and Summary of iGen
33:30-56:50 – Transition to YM 2027 and Interviews with Youth Pastors
