Why is Youth Ministry so freaking hard?
On today’s episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast join us as we dive into the hot topic question of “why is youth ministry so freaking hard?” We have all been there in ministry when it feels like we hit a wall or it all feels so intense. You’re not alone in that feeling, but it’s not a place to stay. Our pastors talk about how they strengthen themselves in The Lord and how to take the pressure off a little bit.
Is Youth Ministry just a season?
On today’s episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast Rory, Mari and Donta discuss the big question: “is youth pastoring just a season?” They address the difference between a season and an assignment. Are we believing the unhealthy narratives of youth ministry and how do we manage our own thoughts and beliefs while in it. We have faith in what we are building and the longevity of it. Tune in to find out why our pastors have been passionately serving in youth ministry for over 10 years.
The pressure of pleasing people!

In this episode our pastors discuss how to navigate and recognize healthy pressure vs. unhealthy pressure. Tune in to find out more!
Redefining Success in Ministry
On today’s episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast Rory, Mari and Donta discuss what successful ministry actually looks like. They begin the honest discussion of what fulfills us in ministry and if that thing actually matters in eternity? Are we celebrating what Jesus Himself is celebrating or are we celebrating something that just “looks good”? Tune in to find out more!
We are Disciples - Part 1
On this episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast, our pastors dive into the topic of what it looks like to be a disciple. They talk through how being discipled shaped their life, how the power of belief breeds identity and changed the trajectory of their life. They enter into the challenging conversation of what it looks like to humble ourselves and let people fully into our life. If we are trying to disciple people, we need to be submitted and be discipled ourselves. Join in on the conversation of what it looks like to be disciples before we make disciples.
We make Disciples - Part 2
On this episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast we jump back into the conversation on discipleship. In episode 5 we started the conversation on the power of being a disciple, but what about making disciples? Join the follow up discussion on the power of discipleship, why is it important and how do you form Jesus in your disciples? We are not just buddies to the students we lead, but our job is to remember who God said they are and help them create a new way to walk in life. Jump into this conversation with us and let us know what you think!
Help! Someone just cussed me out
Ever been cussed out by a teenager in your youth group? Yeah.. us too! On this episode we jump into the conversation of how to handle when a kid is disrespectful in your environment, how to not panic, listen and not take things personal. Are we operating out of compassion and adding water or gas to disrespectful situations? Join us as we let you into real life scenarios on how we’ve dealt with the hard conversations after we’ve been disrespected by a teenager.
Am I exhausted or is it spiritual?
Ever been so excited for your youth night and got to it then realized you couldn’t be more exhausted? Again, we get it! What if it’s more spiritual than what a cup of coffee can handle? On this episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast our conversation is around deciphering if our exhaustion is spiritual or just not getting a good night's sleep. We are not meant to just trudge through the tiredness, but to take authority over the night. We hold the keys and we are the gatekeeper for our youth group, there is grace as the gatekeeper to tap in and overcome the tiredness. We’d love for you to join in on this conversation!
Help! I just took over a Youth Ministry
On this episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast, we talk through how we’ve experienced taking over a youth ministry. The reality is, youth ministry is mostly just handed over to you and there's never a training process of how to handle the ministry. We can be left with the feeling of “ What the heck are we even doing?”. Our pastor’s talk through that exact experience they had. The temptation of taking over can be that you must prove yourself which breeds the belief that we’re in this alone and we end up dying year one. Our goal in this podcast is to reveal those lies and breathe belief into your first year of pastoring. We’d love for you to join in on this conversation!
Staying in the game
On this episode of The Young Saints Leadership Podcast, our leaders discuss how to stay in the game. We’ve all been in the season of life where we feel like giving up if we feel like we’re not succeeding and now all we want to do is run. In this we find out that sometimes if you take a step back and get a bigger perspective, you will realize that there is more going on. In this episode we talk through how to recognize when we feel like we’re running and how to keep our head in the game.
