What if the key to understanding your faith lies in the stories of the past? Join us as we welcome Marty Rind, a passionate youth minister from Western Illinois, who shares his unique journey of faith and leadership inspired by first-century youth ministry. With personal tales of overcoming adversity, from bullying to depression, Marty illustrates how mentorship and transformative experiences, like his unforgettable trip to Israel, have reshaped his approach to engaging with the Bible and inspired him to make ancient teachings relevant for today's youth. Marty’s connection with Heather, a former youth pastor and author of "First Century Youth Ministry," adds depth to his understanding of discipleship and brings a refreshing energy to our conversation.
