Learning to Reed - Dustin Reed
from Living Stones Unearthed Interviews Hosted by Timothy Murphy
In this week's episode of Living Stones Unearthed Interviews, Dustin Reed, youth and young adult leader at Compelled Church, shares his journey into ministry—from an early sense of calling to choosing ministry over broadcasting—and how family, mentors, and authenticity shaped his path. He outlines practical youth ministry work (Monday services, small groups, camps, and outreach), the challenges teens face today such as social media and comparison, and offers clear advice for volunteers and young leaders: be present, be truthful, and just be yourself.
