What do kids really need from the church—and are we giving it to them?

In this episode, Jerry Welch talks with Gretchen Mehan about what it means to truly care well for kids in ministry. From creating environments of safety and belonging to consistently speaking truth into young lives, they unpack the foundational needs every child carries. This conversation is a reminder that kids don’t just need fun—they need stability, connection, and truth they can trust. And when the church shows up consistently, those seeds can shape a lifetime of faith.
