Episode 128: Unapologetic Spiritual Formation in Youth Ministry w/ Anthony Lucarini

In this episode, Sean and Justin sit down with Anthony Lucarini—Next Gen Pastor at Low Country Community Church in South Carolina—to talk about a major shift we’ve been noticing in Gen Z.The hype-driven, attractional model isn’t connecting like it used to. Instead, students today are hungry for something real—unapologetically spiritual environments where they can encounter Jesus, hear truth, and grow deeper in their faith. And surprisingly, even students who don’t go to church seem more curious than ever.We talk through how youth pastors can rethink programming, messages, and culture to reflect this shift—and how to lead ministries that don’t just entertain students but equip them spiritually.It’s a rich and practical convo. We can’t wait for you to hear.Make sure to follow Anthony on IG:https://www.instagram.com/anthonylucarini/
