It’s the most important ministry within the church, and yet it’s oftentimes the most overlooked. In this episode we sit down for a conversation with Pastor and NextGen Denominational Leader, Tami Jones, on ministry to the Next Generation (NextGen). Tami unpacks for us trends in NextGen Ministry, best practices for NextGen Leaders, wisdom in leading NextGen Leaders on your team, and of course, how to escape from a blender if you were suddenly a No. 2 pencil. Let's GOOO!

For more than 30 years, she has been serving and leading in various capacities in NextGen ministries.

Her role involves bringing connection, collaboration, celebration, and care to kids, youth, and young adult ministry pastors and leaders within those 17 states.
