The Student Ministry Podcast

On episode 35 of The Student Ministry Podcast, Steve changes it up a bit and interviews 11 different youth workers. While in attendance at the National Youth Workers Convention in St. Louis this year, Steve did some blogging and posted a ton on Twitter, but he also had the chance to speak with a lot of other youth workers. We want to thank these 11 for lending us a few minutes to talk about some highlights.

On episode 34 of The Student Ministry Podcast, Steve interviews James Sabin, the youth and family pastor at Kingdom Church in Westover, WV. Over the past few years, though, James has been struggling through burnout and all that has come from that. Now, on the other side of it, he shares his story to hopefully help others who are in similar situations or prevent others from going through similar situations.

On this episode of The Student Ministry Podcast, Nick Blevins, Tom Bump, David Maddron, and Tom Pounder join Steve Cullum to talk about their experience at The Orange Conference 2018.  

For those who are regular listeners, you will notice a departure from the regular setup in this episode. These five guys were asked by Orange to blog for the conference, but they all decided to take it a step further this year and discuss their experience in a round-table discussion, which will be published on all five of their podcast feeds.  

We not only cover our general thougts of the conference, but we also discuss some of the biggest themes and our take-aways from OC18. Be sure to also let us know what you think about this type of episode, as we may try it again from time to time here on The Student Ministry Podcast.
