Before Gen Z and Gen Alpha will receive instruction, many first need to experience trust.

Too often, churches lead with correction before connection.
But younger generations are deeply relational. They want to know whether leaders genuinely see them, value them, and care about them, not just whether leaders have answers.

Discipleship has always moved at the speed of relationship.

When trust is built first, conversations about faith, accountability, truth, and spiritual growth become far more meaningful and transformative.

In this clip from our recent Lunch & Learn, we discuss why relational ministry is essential when discipling younger generations in today’s culture.

There are podcasts for everything today. But one that we couldn't find was for stories where leaders in ministry were left hurt, disillusioned or struggling and yet endured, even if the story doesn't end all neatly tied up in a bow.

This is the crux of the Ministry & podcast.
