In this episode, we sit down with Matt Barker to talk about youth ministry in times of transition—those moments when young people face major changes like moving up in school, navigating family challenges, or stepping into adulthood. As an associate professor of communications at Freed-Hardeman University, Radio Station Coordinator for 91.5 WFHU, a father of two teenagers, and a youth deacon at the Henderson church of Christ, Matt brings a unique blend of academic insight, parenting experience, and frontline ministry perspective.
