What does it really take to reach, engage, and disciple young adults in today's church?
In this episode of Crossed Perspectives, we're joined by a special guest from Dallas, Texas—the Director of Young Adult Ministry at Concord Church, where he helps lead a thriving ministry of over 500 young adults!
We explore the realities of young adult ministry, the opportunities and challenges of serving in a megachurch, and some of the bigger questions surrounding the relationship between young adults and the Church.
Are churches truly listening to the next generation? What does meaningful engagement look like beyond attendance? And how can churches of all sizes create spaces where young adults can connect, grow, and develop as disciples of Christ?
Join us for a conversation about faith, leadership, community, and the future of young adult ministry.
Different Perspectives. Meaningful Conversations. Kingdom Impact.

Ep 8 - Young Adult Realty Check: Staying, Leaving, or Searching
Ep. 8 invites some friends to the table for an honest, unfiltered conversation about why (or why not) young adults are leaving the church and what they’re actually looking for.
This isn’t surface-level conversation. We dive into faith, frustration, expectations, and responsibility from both sides. We talk authenticity, leadership, social media, and the real-life issues the church often avoids—while also asking what responsibility falls on us.
If you’ve ever questioned church, felt disconnected, or wondered what’s next for this generation—this conversation is for you.
No clichés. No easy answers. Just real conversation.
