Join us as we celebrate a major milestone in our journey—our 50th episode of Beyond the Event!
With CIY President Jayson French, we reflect on the last 50 episodes of helping you maintain momentum between the mountaintops. We're also diving into the core of what makes CIY (and youth ministry) thrive: a vibrant organizational culture. Continuous learning and self-education take center stage as we discuss the fine art of choosing resources that truly resonate with your leadership style.
Beyond just knowledge, we talk about creating environments where everyone can flourish, driven by the belief that leadership is about enabling others to reach their full potential. From managing large youth groups to empowering adult leaders, we share strategies that ensure everyone is engaged and thriving.
In a lighter moment, we unwrap a mailbag filled with entertaining tales, including a humorous hunting story with Jayson's daughter. But the cornerstone of our conversation is a discussion around the aging pastoral workforce and the pressing need for strategic mentorship. CIY is launching the Follow Through initiative to help students take the right next steps if they feel God is calling them into vocational ministry.
