Show Notes
We decided at the beginning of this year to feature several folks this year who are truly experts in effectively reaching youth for Christ. We're excited that one of the voices we're hearing from is Dr. Ken Castor. I (Pastor John) have known Ken for nearly 10 years. He has had a profound impact on my own family because of his timely investment in my son Josiah (you can hear Josiah's testimony and about his ministry in episodes from January of this year).
After decades of youth ministry, Dr. Ken Castor may be bald in his hairline, but he is bold in his faith. He founded NEXT Ministry Conferences, teaches at Crown College (MN), helped edit the award-winning Jesus-Centered Bible, and has authored several books like Grow Down and Make a Difference. Ken enjoys living in Minnesota with his brilliantly-witty and slightly-freezing family.
In today's episode, Ken explains why our local churches need to takes some real, calculated risks in giving our youth leadership opportunities.
