Kyle, and side kick Josiah Rios, interview author and Children's Pastor Hunter Williams about the importance of teaching theology to children. They discuss the book Hunter co-authored titled How to Teach Kids Theology: Deep Truths for Growing Faith. Hunter offers encouragement for youth leaders and volunteers who want to teach theological truths but feel ill-equipped. They discuss the idea of intelligibility and how to appropriately teach truths to children of different ages. We want to teach children biblical truths in language that they understand, but there are times where we also want them to be blown away by how big God really is even if they Won't fully grasp it. Hunter also emphasizes creating a pathway in your church to accomplish the ministry and discipleship goals that you set.

Kyle invites Dr. Rich Brown of Next Gen Matters to have a discussion about how to equip our students to reach other students. Rich recognizes that students are the ones who are best positioned to reach their peers with the Gospel. To that end he offers great suggestions on how to equip them to do so. We as youth workers can provide support to our students as they work to evangelize and disciple their own peer group!

Kyle invites Teaching Pastor and CPYU Research Fellow Jason Engle to the podcast for our summer series discussing preaching books. Jason discusses the book Why Johnny Can't Preach by T. David Gordon. He encourages us to be first transformed by the Word as we interact with Scripture in order to best communicate the Word to our students. Together, Kyle and Jason tackle sermon prep, multi-tasking, digital tools, and the importance of abiding in Christ.
