In this episode, we are taking a look at what actually creates an “alive” youth ministry culture, not hype, not personality, not better snacks, but repeatable leadership decisions that build ownership and spiritual momentum.

In this episode, Bobby Bosler speaks honestly about a morning when he felt spiritually dry, empty, and numb even while preparing to preach and serve the Lord. Rather than pretending that surrendered Christians never experience seasons of silence, he reminds young people that even faithful believers can feel worn out, thirsty, and distant from God. Through prayer, worship, and Psalm 42, Bobby explains how the Lord began to turn that emptiness into spiritual refreshment. The episode encourages listeners not to panic when they feel dry, but to seek God, worship Him, and trust His promises even when the feelings do not immediately change. Topics Discussed Serving God while still feeling empty The danger of assuming spiritual people never experience dryness Why silence and numbness do not mean God has left you Depending on God's promises when feelings do not change The connection between spiritual thirst and Psalm 42 Worshiping God in the middle of dryness Seeking God honestly instead of hiding discouragement How God can use spiritual thirst to draw your heart back to Himself Key Takeaways You can be surrendered to God and still have moments where your soul feels dry. Spiritual numbness should not drive you to discouragement, but to deeper dependence on God. God's promises are still true even when your feelings do not immediately confirm them. The answer to spiritual thirst is not pretending, performing, or quitting; it is going to the Lord. Worship can turn your attention away from your emptiness and back to God's worthiness. Psalm 42 reminds us that thirsting for God is not unusual, but it must lead us to seek the living God. Don't stay in the silence. Seek His face, praise Him, and let Him meet the need of your soul.

Send us Fan MailHow do we reach the Next Generation in youth ministry?  Gen Z can spot a fake a mile away, but they respond fast to something rarer: an adult who is fully present. In this episode, we have collaborated with Josh Williams from Beyond the Numbers podcast to talk about what healthy youth ministry looks like when the goal is real discipleship, not just a full room.We dig into the myths that keep churches stuck, what great volunteers look like and then we get concrete about vision, strategy, and program. Adding events can feel productive, but program for program's sake does not fix a discipleship problem. We talk about creating a culture that “drips” the mission into everything, building space for deeper worship experiences, and helping students grow in a relationship with Jesus that outlasts youth group.If you lead a student ministry, coach volunteers, or care about the future of the church, this conversation will give you practical next steps you can use this week.

Boundaries in Love: Discernment, Flattery, and Drawing Near to God Host Shirah Chante welcomes teens, parents, and youth leaders to Teens Draw Near to God and explains the show's purpose of helping teenagers know God through the Bible. Continuing her poem “Fair Love” from her poetry book Jaundiced View, she focuses on the lines about “sweetness of sound,” warning that flattering words can be insincere and used to manipulate, especially when teens feel insecure or rush relationships. She emphasizes discernment, giving relationships time, and honoring restraint through clear boundaries for one's body, mind, and soul, encouraging waiting for marriage and valuing friendship. She shares a personal story from Los Angeles about a night when a man respected her decision not to have sex, illustrating healthy boundaries. She closes with Ephesians 6:14–17, a prayer for teens, and a request for prayer.00:22 Welcome to Teens Draw Near00:56 Why This Podcast Exists01:57 Teen Years and Identity03:22 Why Read the Bible04:07 Introducing Poem Fair Love05:20 Reading the Full Poem07:34 Sweet Words or Flattery12:27 Restraint and Boundaries14:08 LA Story Testing Boundaries18:50 Practical Advice and Wrap Up19:39 Scripture Prayer and GoodbyeSupport the show

In this episode, Dr. Jim walks through the powerful biblical principle of sowing and reaping from Galatians 6. He challenges listeners to recognize that every choice—whether spiritual or fleshly—plants a seed that will eventually produce a harvest. With both warning and encouragement, this episode calls young people to live with eternity in view by sowing to the Spirit and responding rightly when God speaks to their hearts.
