Welcome to the very first episode of ETCH - a podcast designed for the Next Gen Leaders of the church! For us to know how to lead the next generation, we must know who they are! How are they different from the generations before them? What unique challenges do they face? What do they value? On today's show Josh Straub and Chuck Peters dive into those questions and challenge leaders to invest with integrity and authenticity.
