Preachers' College Podcast

Religion & Spirituality


In today's episode we have Pastor Jonathan Pokluda on the podcast as our guest. Pastor Jonathan led one of the largest young adults ministries on planet earth for many years in Dallas, Texas. Now he's the Lead Pastor of Harris Creek Baptist Church. In today's episode we spend a ton of time discussing what it's like to lead young adults, minister to young adults, and preach to young adults. It's a hot topic because Millennials are leaving the urban context and flooding the suburbs. Careers and families will do that to you. If you have any intention of preaching The Gospel and leading a church over the course of the next two decades you have to pay attention to the emerging generation. They are flooding our churches as they age. We also spend time talking about what it's like to sit under seasoned leadership and learn. It's a great episode to take a ton of notes and I can't encourage you enough to pick up Pastor Jonathan's new book as well.
