005 - Heather Quiroz

This week's guest is Heather Quiroz, youth minister and author of "First-Century Youth Ministry". We discuss what she studied to receive her master's degree in Youth Ministry Leadership from Huntington University, retaining youth in ministry past high school and into adulthood, how her life as a stay-at-home mom has influenced her work, her "life verse" and her path to faith and ministry, the potential causes of low self-worth in teenagers & the pitfalls of social media, how a trip to Israel inspired her book, the difficulties of getting youth to see the big picture and think longer-term, the importance of knowing people "by name" and being able to truly listen.
