Episode 80: Trauma in Youth Ministry

Coming out of COVID, bringing in a new screen-saturated generation, and dealing with polarization at an all-time high has made the already tumultuous season of adolescence even more unstable for many. Also for many, a major element within that rocky season is trauma. Several of our students are walking through our church doors with it each week...do we notice and adapt our ministry approaches accordingly? Jane Lewis joins Jeff to talk about some signs we can look for, things to keep in mind, and methods to utilize as we minister to students living in the aftermath of trauma and/or tragedy.
