Apostolos - From Calling to Certification with Steve Svoboda

In this episode of Apostolos, we sit down with Steve Svoboda, Director of Strategic Partnerships for CALLED with the Assemblies of God, to talk about awakening the call of God in the next generation. Steve shares his passion for equipping high school students who sense a call to ministry—not just inspiring them, but placing the right tools, relationships, and pathways directly into their hands. From early discernment to intentional development, he unpacks how strategic partnerships are helping students move from calling to clarity. We also dive into the vision of HYM: raising up a generation of students who don’t just graduate high school, but graduate certified with the Assemblies of God—prepared, affirmed, and ready to step into ministry with confidence and conviction. If you’re a leader, parent, or student who believes God is calling young people now—not later—this conversation will challenge and inspire you to think bigger about what’s possible.
