Rachel and Martin anticipate the end of term by asking if a summer break is the right thing for youth ministry. What’s the right time - and way - to end your youth work year in a manner that doesn’t short-change your young people… or your hard-working team? They’re also on uncertain ground as they debate the question of a north/south divide in youth ministry - and just in case that doesn’t upset everyone… there’s also a game.Do get in touch with us by emailing us podcast@youthscape.co.uk or commenting on individual Spotify episodes.To hear more episodes like this, search for Talking Youth Ministry: A Youthscape Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.For more content from Youthscape, find us on Instagram and Facebook.
