In case you missed it, here’s the recording of our March 2022 webinar on teenagers and loneliness. Rooted Steering Committee members Skyler Flowers and Kendal Conner and Rooted’s Editor-in-Chief, Anna Meade Harris talk about how we can minister the gospel to hurting teenagers following two years of COVID isolation.

He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!] (Hebrews 13:5b, Amplified Bible)
