    “Stuck” VS. Waiting | A perspective shift to bring hope for the year

    A lot of us feel stuck right now. Almost slightly betrayed. Like things are supposed to be normal by now. I don’t know about you, but I’ve spent the better majority of my life like my 6-year-old son in the back seat of the car - “are we there yet?” It’s seldom that I actually come to peace with where I’m at in life and trust that God has me exactly where I’m supposed to be. But this morning was one of those moments. So if you’re feeling stuck in winter… stuck in isolation… or for no reason at all, I hope this brings you hope.

    Gen Z Misconceptions: How Parents Can Reach A Misunderstood Generation w/ Jaco Coetzee

    PARENTS! If you struggle to connect with your kids, listen to this! Jaco and I sat down to talk about the struggles that Gen Z kids face, and what we as mentors & parents can do to help those from a very misunderstood generation lead more fulfilling lives. Jaco is a father, husband, Marine, and missionary who spends his time wrenching on bikes with "mobile" or at-risk youth. Through this, he's learned a great deal about how to build influence and meaningful relationships with today's youth. The best part is, it's not complicated.
