Podcast episode recommendations from the month:
- Social media usage - The Bible Boyz
A helpful discussion on being intentional with our usage of social media, grounded in critical thinking and biblical theology. I linked this to my youth leaders in preparation for our upcoming topical. - Marshall Ballantine-Jones: Helping parents to talk to teens on social media, the internet and porn
I'm not a parent... currently... but I am a youth leader. It is very concerning how the internet is negatively affecting our young people. - Karl Deenick on Am I a Pastoral Person? Finding the 'Right Fit' of Ministry Work, Academic vs Pastoral Ministry - Aspire | Podcast on Spotify↗
We had Karl speak at Catalyst Conference in earlier years (talk recordings are here). He shares on how God grew is pastoral heart (that is, a heart for loving people). And he encouraged us to take every opportunity to keep learning - it won't be wasted down the track!
