In this powerful conversation, I sit down with my friend John Achord, Kids Pastor of Cross Church, to unpack what it really means to change the method without changing the message. Together we explore how Spirit-led vision and strategy-driven impact must collide if we’re going to reach Gen Z and Gen Alpha with the timeless truth of the Gospel.

John shares fresh insight on how to:

• Speak their language without losing ours
• Create environments kids run toward rather than away from
• Embrace digital discipleship and put ministry right in their pocket
• Empower the next wave of leaders in the church
• And most importantly, keep the fire burning when ministry gets hard

This isn’t just another conversation about trends—it’s a wake-up call for leaders to rise up, lean into the Spirit, and embrace new strategies that will ensure the next generation knows, loves, and follows Jesus.
