Teens want and need a spiritual mentor. I don’t think youth ministries have that kind of capacity for one-on-one discipleship, but the church does.
Dr. Anthony Bradley teaches theology at Kings’ College, and in this episode of the Rooted Youth Ministry podcast he speaks with Cameron Cole about what he hears from the college freshmen he teaches. Tune in to hear what Bradley’s students have to say about Biblical literacy and intergenerational integration. You’ll also want to listen for what teenagers really think about hanging out with adults (hint: you might learn something unexpected).
