The good news--you don't have to be someone you're not to grow a thriving student ministry. In this breakout, we'll explore how to lead authentically, build meaningful relationships, and create a ministry culture where students connect--not because of a persona, but because of real, intentional discipleship. Discover how to lean into your strengths, engage students effectively, and grow your ministry without sacrificing who God made you to be. \nLEADER: Ryan Appling, Ministry of Students, Flat Creek Baptist, Fayetteville, GA\n\nThis podcast brings you the very best of Conclave—breakout sessions, main-stage talks, and practical training content straight from our annual gathering in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Each year, youth pastors, ministry volunteers, and leaders from across Southern Baptist cooperating states gather for three powerful days of encouragement, equipping, and sharpening as we focus on reaching the next generation for Christ. Now, you don’t have to wait until the next event to benefit from that experience. Through this podcast, you’ll hear trusted voices from youth ministry sharing biblical insight, practical tools, and real-world encouragement to help you lead students, week in and week out. Whether you’re a seasoned youth pastor or a faithful volunteer, these episodes are designed to strengthen your leadership, renew your calling, and sharpen your ministry.
