How to take control of your Image

Podcast Icon

Andre Agassi, the very popular tennis player in the 90s, used to do a commercial for Canon cameras where he would say, “Image is everything“. In the same way, image is everything when it comes to a student minister as well. How student ministers present themselves to others is very important.

That is why Christopher Wesley is back on the podcast. He joins Tom to discuss a recent blog post he did entitled, “How To Be Taken Seriously As A Youth Minister“.  In today’s podcast Tom and Chris talk about…

  1. What Chris has been working on lately.
  2. 3 of the 5 points Chris makes about being taken seriously as a Youth Minister
  3. What is happening with Marathon Youth Ministry.
