Stu and Joel are rejoined by Tim as they chat about the Youth Quake in the 1960s and how it shaped youth ministry in the subsequent decades. They look at the Jesus Movement that created Christian communes and coffees house, their return to the established church and how they changed worship music. To the Brass Tacks/Funnel method, No Guts, No Glory and the institutionalisation of those ideas and how it all lead to what we now call the Shock Absorber.
