In this episode Dr. Richard Ross joins us to talk about maturing as a youth pastor.

Our primary aim is to help you as a youth pastor stay in youth ministry for the longer haul.  To do this means navigating maturing as a youth pastor.

And when it comes to this topic, there's no one better to bring wisdom than Dr. Richard Ross.  He's the real deal and you'll quickly tell that he has forgotten more about working with teens than most of us will ever learn.

So sit back and enjoy the ride today kids, because Dr. Ross is taking us to school.
