Student Ministry Connection Steve Cullum

How do we get our students to have faith that so contagious for those they are around? And what kind of an impact could they make if they lived out that type of faith? On this episode of Student Ministry Connection, we talk with Dr. Dave Rahn, who has served for over 50 years, including 41 years with Youth for Christ and 30 years as a youth ministry professor. Dave shares his own amazing story and provides some encouragement on how to help students share their faith and make a huge impact on their community.

Maybe you’re wondering the same thing about your youth group or church? On this episode, we talk about one key element of revivals throughout history and why it’s so important.

Back in the 1970’s, a movement began that led to a revolution, a Jesus Revolution. Time Magazine wrote about it, several books have been written about it, and now we have a movie depicting it. On this episode of Student Ministry Connection, we talk with Brent McCorkle, the co-director of Jesus Revolution, to hear his story, learn why you should see the movie, understand why it’s important students see this movie, and more! 
Brent also co-wrote, co-edited, directed 2nd unit, and composed the original score for I Can Only Imagine. He also worked on Woodlawn, Unconditional, and Steve McQueen: American Idol. And today, he joins us to talk about Jesus Revolution, a historical retelling of The Jesus Movement that swept the United States in the late 60’s and early 70s, which stars Kelsey Grammer (Fraiser), Joel Courtney (The Kissing Booth), Jonathan Roumie (The Chosen), Kimberly Williams Paisley (Father of the Bride), and Anna Grace Barlow (Supernatural) and releases in theaters across the United States on February 24, 2023.

Video games have been a growing influence our culture for a while now. Ever since the 1970s, kids have been jumping into virtual worlds to compete with others, go on adventures, solve puzzles, and more. And while there are many positives about games, there are also many negatives. So how do we navigate that with the students in our youth group and how to we help parents navigate it with their kids? Our guest on this episode is Drew Dixon, author of the book, Know Thy Gamer: A Parent's Guide to Video Games. Drew is an avid gamer himself, is a father of gamers, co-founder of Love Thy Nerd, and has a history of serving in student ministry. In addition to sharing about his book, he provides some valuable tips for helping you and the parents in your ministry.
