In this episode, Josiah and Micah sit down with Pastor Josh Dillon from New Life Church, Colorado, to talk about calling, hidden seasons, and building a healthy, intergenerational young adult ministry. Josh shares his story of walking away from God, encountering Jesus again in late high school, and the 7–8 year journey from sensing a call to finally stepping into pastoral ministry.
Together they unpack how to engage 18–29-year-olds, raise the bar for leadership without losing people, and invite older generations into the discipleship story.

In this conversation, Frank Beeler (Generis; formerly Elevation Church) joins Josiah and Micah Kennealyto talk about what to do when your God-given vision is bigger than your current resources. Frank unpacks a pastoral, theologically rich view of fundraising as ministry, the tension between confidence and humility, and why young adult ministry is absolutely critical in this cultural moment.
Frank also shares defining leadership moments from his own journey, practical fundraising frameworks you can use this year, and a short but powerful prayer for anyone raising support or leading a church/nonprofit.

In this episode of Young Adults Today, Josiah and Micah sit down with Charlie Hedley, Next Gen Pastor at New Beginnings Community Church in Southern California and Young Adult Director for the SoCal Network (AG).
Charlie shares his story of coming to faith at 18, stepping into ministry at a young age, and now championing young adults across a diverse region. Together they unpack why young adult ministry is so critical right now, how to start or relaunch a ministry from scratch, and how churches can move from counting heads to truly discipling hearts.
