How To Know If You're Investing In The Right Student

Ever poured your heart into a student—showed up to their games, grabbed coffee with them, prayed for them like crazy—only to feel like...nothing’s changing? 🙃 It’s honestly one of the most discouraging parts of student ministry. You want to be intentional. You want to make a difference. But how do you know if you’re investing in the right student?   In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to invest in a student and why some of us are feeling drained and frustrated instead of fired up. I’m sharing a super simple (and totally helpful) framework to help you identify the students who are most likely to grow, thrive, and multiply your investment. Plus, a real-life story from my husband Kevin that might make you rethink who you’ve been pouring into.   Let’s talk about how to stop spinning our wheels and start seeing fruit in our ministry!   Wanna learn more about investing in and building relationships with students?
