This is the episode that changes everything. Shaping Student Ministry (SSM) and Youth Pastor Central (YPC) have merged into one unified network. Why? Because student pastors need more than content—they need connection, coaching, and community. And now, you’ll get it all in one place. In this episode, John, Ian, and Christopher walk through: • Why we’re merging: What brought SSM and YPC together • What changes for you (and what doesn’t): Access, content, cohorts, and more • The new platform: A first look at our all-in-one coaching and resource ecosystem • What’s coming next: Podcast expansions, resource drops, regional meetups, and a packed fall lineup. Whether you’ve followed SSM for years or you’re a longtime member of YPC, this is the beginning of something brand new for all of us. What you’ll get: • A redesigned member experience • One subscription that includes everything (yes, including Games on Games) • National and regional cohorts • A growing podcast network • Access to exclusive curriculum and tools We’re not just joining forces. We’re building the future of student ministry leadership together.
