from Sandy Creek Stirrings · host Joshua Gimenez

What if one of the greatest threat to a youth ministry isn’t culture… What if it's you?Absalom didn’t start with open rebellion. He started with handshakes. Conversations. Sympathy. He built loyalty quietly — and by the time anyone realized what was happening, hearts had already shifted. He wasn't loud. He wasn't dramatic. He was subtle.If you have influence over young people, the Absalom mentality is something you cannot afford to ignore. This episode is a warning to anyone who leads, teaches, or influences young people. Because sometimes the most dangerous rebellion doesn’t look like rebellion at all.
