Kristi, Todd, and Travis Walker, children of the late Mel Walker, recently joined us on Wake Up Right to honor their father and his life of faithful ministry, as well as to share about Mel's final book, Youth Ministry Questions: Lessons from a Life-Long Youth Worker. Mel's joy was investing his life into the next generation, and it's clear from our conversation that he did that beginning with his own family, as each of Mel's grown kids is in ministry and shares their dad's passion for discipleship. 

Mel Walker was a youth pastor, taught youth and family ministry courses and served in various administrative roles at Faith Baptist Bible College in Ankeny, Iowa, and then at Baptist Bible College & Seminary in Clarks Summit, PA. Mel was a frequent speaker at youth, church leadership, family life, and parenting conferences, and authored fourteen books.
