We are for the misfits. Those who don't fit at school, those who don't fit in at church, and those who feel they don't fit anywhere. We are misfits, and we are called to be misfits and to be for the misfits.
Intersectionality, and treating the young person as the expert
Isabella Choate has worked and volunteered across several sectors, as a youth consultant, independent advisor, Boorloo Justice, as a co-Chair in many different settings. They share about their wisdom on the intersectionality between mental health, gender and sexual diversity, and disability. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did!

Youth ministry: simple, but not easy.
Sara leads the youth ministry over at Quinns, and has studied a Bachelor of Youth Work with another institution. She loves being on the 'brink' of chaos, and this is a good model for our practice with young people. She boils down youth ministry to a simple art - but it's not easy because it requires getting uncomfortable.

Mental Health, trauma, communities of healing
In this episode I met with Nathan Forster, who is a counsellor at Alta-1 College. He shared about his story of faith, and how he now reflects on his days in youth ministry with fondness, but also with some cringe because of the things that could have gone wrong. Listen to find out what he would have done differently!
