In episode five of Disciple Making in Community, Ken Braddy talks with Chad Higgins about the vital role student ministry plays in shaping a culture of evangelism. Together, they explore what it looks like to create natural, pressure-free environments where students can encounter the gospel through relationships—not programs.

Chad shares insights on current trends in student ministry, how social media is shaping the way students think and connect, and why modeling evangelism through real, present-day stories matters so much for the next generation. The conversation also highlights the powerful partnership between parents and the church when it comes to discipling teenagers.

You’ll hear Chad talk about his new book, Define the Relationship, and the heart behind helping families and churches work together to guide students toward lasting faith. If you care about reaching students, supporting parents, and building groups that engage the next generation with intention, this episode offers clarity, encouragement, and practical wisdom.
