Episode 14: Don't Squash the Punks with Alyssa Trutter

Ministry Leaders Anonymous

In this largely youth minister-focused episode of the show, Alyssa Trutter from Ablaze Ministries joins Matt to talk about being merciful in ministry, specifically restraining the urge to just squash those punks. Alyssa & Matt both have a lot of experience in middle school ministry, which of course is the battleground to become the alpha-punk. But constantly chastising them can have long-term effects on the salvation of those punks. Listen to Alyssa & Matt share their stories. You can also hear Alyssa on Everyday Catholics with Fr. Ryan Higdon. Thanks to ALOB for letting us use his song, Strong God, from the album No Match for Love!
