In this week's Podcast, Lee & Ric interview 3 recently graduated students who are preparing for college. In this very personal interview they talk about their mindset going through the life of a church while struggling to own their own faith. Ethan, Tenison, and Matt talk about their struggle and crisis of belief and what took place for them to make their faith, their "own." Student ministers can listen to these guys and gain insight into the mind of three guys who grew up in church and didn't just accept what they were told...they had to find it out for themselves. They will learn about what worked for them and what didn't...not to mention a cautionary warning to adults and the power of their influence. This one was brutally honest.
