Morris 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.
