Your church might have a great youth ministry, great volunteers, and great programming—but there are teenagers in your community who may never walk through your doors. In this episode of Youth Ministry Answers, we’re talking about how to build meaningful partnerships with local schools and expand our understanding of where ministry can happen. Brooklyn and Damean share practical ways to serve schools well, build trust over time, and show up consistently for teenagers where they already are.
