We've been challenging Switch students to spend time in silence & solitude as they pursue Jesus. During that time our students may find themselves juggling questions about their faith. In this episode James and Josh discuss why that's okay. 

Are you so busy that it feels like there's not enough time in the day...any day...ever? Do you tend to set goals and just not get around to reaching them? If you'd like to know how to find more margin in your life for the things you love most, this is the episode for you as we hear from our special guest and Life.Church Campus Pastor, Ronnie Brumley. 

We love to periodically spend some time on the podcast covering questions from Switch Leaders. In this episode, Josh Baldwin and Gavin Espinoza talk through some great questions submitted by listeners. Check it out for some light hearted conversation and hopefully some fresh perspective. 

You own your car, you own your house, maybe you own a business, but do you own your church? On this episode, we get to hear from the leader of Switch, Vince Parker, as he shares with us what it really means to be an OWNER. In addition to that, Vince shares his heart behind this year's focus of “More Jesus."

When we signed up for youth ministry we figured it wouldn’t always be easy, but dang, we also didn’t know that sometimes it would be so challenging! With that said, are there students who we actually can’t reach? Are there students we aren’t equipped for? Or are we supposed to reach them all? Josh talks though it all with Switch Support expert, Heather Brower.

Is it more important for Switch messages to connect with students who are mature in their faith, or students who aren't even sure if they believe? 

Whether you've served in Switch for 10 years or 10 days, you'll want to listen to this episode to understand the heart behind the new messages our students will be hearing this year. 

Christmas was great and New Years was fun, but we're so glad to be back IRL and can't wait to kick off a new semester of Switch! Josh and James sit down to laugh a little, and talk through some practical ways to win as a Switch Leader during the spring semester. 

Kaitlyn Caffrey and Josh Baldwin have a conversation about the challenges of loving student's who sometime's may actually be hard to even like! Can I say that? Was that too far? Too late! We know they need Jesus just as much as the rest of us, but how do we show His love to a student who wants us to think they don't even care? Hopefully this podcast can challenge your perspective and soften your heart as you go to battle everyday on behalf of the student's in our church. 

This is part 2 of a 2 part series about Global Youth Culture. Josh talks with Noemi Monnerville from an organization called One Hope, about the data they have gathered after doing extensive research on Gen Z. Their research brings so much valuable insight to the table as we work to better understand the students we are working to reach.
