Justin and Sean celebrate 100 episodes of helpful hacks in youth ministry! This episode was recorded live on September 8th (so all prizes, competitions and codes were for the live audience only). The guys answered questions that were in the live chat and they even had Josh Griffin and Doug Fields pop in for a little bit!

Justin and Sean sit down with Jay Kim, Pastor of Westgate Church and author of Analog Christian & Analog Church, to chat through how youth workers can think through how to lead and minister in person better and more effectively in a digital world.

Justin and Sean sit down and talk about metrics. Everyone’s favorite topic. Why do numbers have to be weird? Now they don’t talk about specific numbers but they talk about best practices of what to track and why. It’s something every youth pastor should know.

Justin and Sean sit down and talk about hacks on how to practically rest and take time off well. Too many youth workers do not know how to rest well, which then leads to burn out. Some don’t know what to do when they are off. Some don’t know how to set themselves or their teams up for success when they want to take time off. They talk about all of these different things on resting well in this episode.

In his first Q&A, Sean answers a bunch of questions with Justin covering:
- What does online ministry look like now that most are back in person?
- How do I start a band and siciple them?
- What does work/life balance look like with a new baby?
- How do you develop content for your students?
- What does your multi-site model look like?
- How does ministry change as you get bigger?
- How do you cast a compelling vision?

Side note: We know Justin sounds bad in this. We will fix that next episode.

As Sean is starting in his new position and wanting to walk through some change, he talks with Justin about the process of how to do that. Justin has refreshed a few ministries over the last few years and so what started as a conversation between two friends turned into a great episode that was recorded.

Whether you are starting at a new ministry and starting fresh or are looking to refresh your current ministry, this one is for you.
