The Heart of a Youth Leader

Waking Up to God’s Call Again

Thrive Youth Ministries Season 11 Episode 7

In this week’s Heart of a Youth Leader episode, Andy reflects on the story of Jonah — not just his disobedience, but his sleep in the middle of a storm.

It’s a powerful reminder of how easy it can be to drift through ministry on autopilot, doing what we’ve always done, while missing what God is really saying. Andy invites us to stop coasting, to seek the Lord afresh, and to make obedience to Him our top priority once again.

If you’ve lost some of your first love for ministry, this episode is a gentle wake-up call to rest, reconnect, and realign your heart with God’s purpose.
