<description>&lt;p&gt;Do you have hope for the future? Part of having hope in the future is investing in its people--our kids. Veteran Pastor of Student Ministries Josh Newton joins us today to talk about students, the church, and what we need to know about our kids. Josh is wise, humble, and full of gospel grace for our kids and their families. He deals with misconceptions, gives valuable advice for parents, and discusses some of the bright spots with teens today. He also peels back some of the Bumper Stickers kids (and adults!) like to hide behind, and he paints a vision for how student ministry can thrive in the church today. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Josh is Pastor of Student Ministries at The Orchard Church in the Chicagoland area. He is also a part of Rooted Ministry (&lt;a href="http://www.rootedministry.com"&gt;www.rootedministry.com&lt;/a&gt;).  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;#faith #god #youthministry #studentministry #parents #church&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Follow us on Facebook at: &lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/bumperstickerfaith"&gt;https://www.facebook.com/bumperstickerfaith&lt;/a&gt;  Find us on Instagram @bumperstickerfaith&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Won't you please consider becoming part of the BS Crew?
