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.

We talk authenticity, leadership, social media, and the real-life issues the church often avoids—while also asking what responsibility falls on us.
