Episode 67 -  Morris Dirks - 1980's Youth Group CultureJan 26, 2022 - Host: Dr. Gregory HallMorris Dirks is well known in the Pacific Northwest corner of the United States. He was the head pastor at two large churches (in Oregon and Washington) and is the founding Director of Soul Formation, a non-profit that ministers to leaders in the church. But before all that, Morris was my youth pastor. In this episode we look back on the 1980's Evangelical Youth Group Culture and identify lots of good, some of the bad, but mostly just the crazy fun we had. Resources Referenced and/or Read:Hall, Gregory D.

Part 7 from the series, "Naming Your Stage of Apprenticeship", as part of Practicing the Way. America is a first half of life culture. As a result, most of our spirituality focuses on the first half and very little is offered about how to navigate the shifts that occur during the second half of life. In this teaching with Morris Dirks we highlight the spiritual challenges as well as the opportunities as we climb the “second mountain.”  It’s never to early to ask the question, “What kind of an old person do I want to be?”  If we want to go the distance Jesus calls us to move from the “identity journey” to “wisdom journey”.  Listen in to learn more about following Jesus in the second half of life.
