In this episode of the Rethinking Youth Ministry podcast, we tackle a tricky question from Kendall in Fort Wayne. How can we help students talk to their parents about tough issues when they’re feeling nervous or insecure? Our team shares practical tips on opening up lines of communication, giving teens the confidence to start those conversations, and working with parents to build trust. Tune in for some great advice on bridging the gap and making those important talks a bit easier for everyone involved.

Here are 3 takeaways from this minisode...

1️⃣ Provide Conversation Tools: Teach teens specific ways to bring up tough topics with their parents.

2️⃣ Role-Play Scenarios: Practice different responses with students to build their confidence.

3️⃣ Supportive Presence: Offer to accompany students when they need to have difficult conversations.
