   Parenting in a Broken World: Youth Pastor Tim Wadsworth on Faith, Family & Today's Challenges

   In this episode of Russell Jones Speaks, I sit down with Tim Wadsworth,  Pastor of Student Ministries at North Hills Church in Taylors, SC. With  17 years in vocational ministry, Tim shares powerful insights on the  real challenges facing kids ages 10–17 — both in Christian homes and  non-religious families — and how parents can walk with them through it. ### Key Topics: • Why many kids in Christian homes say marriage and following Jesus  don't look appealing • The relatively young history of modern youth ministry and its evolving  role in the church • Practical ways to model radical Christianity and healthy marriage at  home • Building faith conversations into everyday life (not just formal  devotionals) • Reaching students from non-Christian backgrounds with authenticity and  generosity • Helping teens find purpose, navigate doubt, and experience real  discipleship • Fun family practices like "Treasure Hunts" to teach listening to the  Holy Spirit and sharing Jesus Tim also opens up about his own journey — from professional drummer  (with stories of mohawks, Red Tie Records, and Atlanta Braves fandom) to  husband, father of two boys, and now church elder. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, or someone who cares about the  next generation, this conversation is full of hope, honesty, and  actionable wisdom grounded in the gospel. 👉 Share this with a parent who needs encouragement!
