Pastor John interviews Dan Boal, Director of Alliance Youth for the Christian & Missionary Alliance. Dan is preparing to transition back to local church ministry and the conversation covers many great topics on both youth ministry and Pastor John's passion: Disciple Making.
In this week's episode, John and Dan discuss the reasons the American Church has seemingly drifted from real disciple making. And Dan describes the one thing he believes is needed to get us back on track.
