Rather than offering quick fixes, this conversation explores how parents can build trust, create healthy boundaries, and remain a steady influence in their children's lives.

Whether you're a parent, youth pastor, or ministry leader, this episode offers a thoughtful perspective on helping the next generation follow Jesus in a world that often pulls them in the opposite direction.

Corbin Hogue) Fri, 13 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with Corbin Hogue, pastor of One Community Church in Greenville, South Carolina, during a powerful week at Momentum Youth Conference.

Together they talk about what it's been like to witness a genuine move of God as hundreds of students respond to the Gospel, confess sin, and take steps of faith alongside their youth groups. Corbin also shares a preview of the message he's bringing to close out the week, challenging students to live all out for Jesus when they return home.

Corbin opens up about his own journey—from growing up in a broken home, to dancing professionally in the music industry, to the moment God completely redirected his life toward ministry. Today, he and his family are planting and serving in an underserved community in Greenville, bringing the hope of the Gospel directly into their neighborhood.

Eric and Corbin also dive into an honest conversation about accountability, peer support, and why no pastor should lead alone.

If you're a pastor, youth leader, or someone passionate about seeing the next generation follow Jesus, this conversation will encourage you and remind you of what God can do when people fully surrender their lives to Him.

Kevin Butcher) Fri, 06 Mar 2026 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with Kevin Butcher, longtime pastor, author of Free: Rescued from Shame-Based Religion, and founder of Rooted Pastors.

Kevin shares his story of pastoring for more than three decades while quietly carrying the weight of shame, performance, and exhaustion—and the moment that forced him to confront the emptiness behind ministry success. From there, he walks through how God began reshaping his understanding of love, identity, and what it really means to live free in Christ.

Along the way, Eric and Kevin talk about the difference between guilt and shame, why so many pastors feel pressure to perform, and why healing often begins when leaders are finally seen, known, and supported in safe community. If you're a pastor or ministry leader who has ever felt the pressure to have it all together, this conversation offers honest encouragement and a reminder that you don't have to walk through ministry alone.

Knute Larson) Fri, 27 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode, Eric Miller sits down with Newt Larson—longtime pastor, former CE National director (now Momentum Ministry Partners), author, and trusted coach to pastors across the country. Knute reflects on a lifetime of pastoral leadership, including 26 years at The Chapel in Akron, Ohio, and years of ministry in Ashland. 

Together, they talk candidly about what leadership really feels like behind the scenes—making big decisions while still feeling "scared," learning dependence on the Lord, and choosing what's best for the church over what looks impressive.

They also dig into practical, transferable tools for healthy ministry: building and repeating clear core values, leading change with patience and communication, navigating discouragement and comparison, handling criticism with wisdom, and protecting your heart through humility, relationships, and straight talk.

If you're a pastor, church leader, or ministry professional—especially in a season of burnout, transition, or uncertainty—this conversation is full of steady encouragement and real-world guidance for long-haul faithfulness.

Randy helps cut through oversimplified narratives and algorithm-driven opinions, offering a framework for understanding the layers behind modern conflicts while keeping the main thing the main thing: starting with God's Word, not cable news. He challenges pastors to resist stereotypes, avoid partisan traps, and step into hard conversations with humility, compassion, and biblical conviction, like a referee bringing principles to both sides.

The episode closes with practical direction and real hope. Randy shares how to think biblically, pray faithfully, give strategically, and engage wisely without over-spiritualizing or over-politicizing. He also highlights what is encouraging him right now as he sees Scripture, spiritual hunger, and gospel opportunities unfolding in real time.

S5 | Ep 22 - Built to Last | Our 2025 Church of the Year Winner S5 | Ep 22 - Built to Last | Our 2025 Church of the Year Winner Fri, 13 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with Clancy Cruise and Jeremey Bury, the pastors behind Marysville Grace, Momentum's 2025 Church of the Year.


Together, they share the story of Marysville Grace from its early days as a church plant to becoming a thriving, multiplying church rooted in trust, unity, and long-term faithfulness. Clancy reflects on what it looks like to plant a church, raise up leaders from within, and remain on staff with humility after handing off the lead pastor role. Jeremey walks through his unexpected journey from worship pastor to lead pastor, and how God consistently confirmed each step along the way.

This conversation dives deep into healthy leadership transition, the difference between preferences and convictions, and why building trust through humility, repentance, and patience matters more than chasing trends. If you're a pastor or ministry leader navigating succession, developing young leaders, or longing for a church culture built on multiplication rather than ego, this episode offers practical wisdom and real encouragement.

Nick Rotola) Fri, 06 Feb 2026 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode, Eric sits down with Nick (founder of UP) for a conversation that hits right at the center of what so many students, parents, and ministry leaders are feeling: doom scrolling is shaping us more than we realize. Nick shares his unlikely journey—from baseball and high-pressure tech environments to building tools rooted in behavioral science—and the moment he felt God calling him to take what he'd learned and use it for something bigger.

Together, they unpack what's actually happening beneath the surface of our feeds: how algorithms are designed to keep us hooked, how the "scroll" can choke out spiritual growth, and why this isn't just a self-control issue—it's a systems issue. Nick explains the heart behind UP (and the "scroll happy" idea): a platform built to give people what they want without feeding them what they don't need, aiming for mental health and wellbeing over engagement.

S5 | Ep 20 - Behind the Screen: Equipping Parents to Protect Students Online (Feat. Holly Reagan) S5 | Ep 20 - Behind the Screen: Equipping Parents to Protect Students Online (Feat. Holly Reagan) Fri, 30 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric Miller sits down with Holly Regan, Training Coordinator at Rahab Ministries, for a conversation every parent, youth pastor, and ministry leader needs to hear—but may not know how to start. Together, they unpack what sex trafficking actually looks like in the United States today. Holly brings years of frontline experience to help clarify how exploitation frequently begins much closer to home, especially in digital spaces students interact with every day.

This honest and eye-opening discussion explores how social media, pornography, grooming, and sextortion are increasingly connected, and why proactive conversations matter more than reactive ones. Rather than leaning into fear, Holly offers practical, hope-filled insight into how churches and parents can build trust, establish safe relationships, and create environments where students know they are not alone and are never beyond help.

This episode includes mature topics and is best listened to away from young ears. If you work with students, lead in a church, or are trying to navigate technology and boundaries as a parent, this conversation is designed to equip you with clarity, language, and confidence for the road ahead.

Rahab Ministries provides Christ-centered transformational care for adults and minors impacted by sex trafficking throughout Northeast Ohio.

Roland Warren) Fri, 23 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000 Today on the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, we're joined by someone who has been a leading voice in helping the Church think more biblically, more compassionately, and more holistically about the issue of life. Roland Warren is the President and CEO of Care Net—one of the nation's largest networks of pregnancy centers—and a national advocate for what he calls a Pro Abundant Life vision.

In this conversation, Roland shares the personal story that shaped his passion (it starts back at Princeton), the one question he believes every pastor and leader needs to wrestle with, and why the Church can't outsource this issue to politics and call it "mission accomplished." If you've ever felt the tension of wanting to lead with conviction and compassion—but not knowing how to talk about it without it turning into a debate—this episode will give you language, clarity, and practical next steps.

They talk behind-the-scenes of Youth Conference, what it really looks like to pastor students in moments of worship, and why confession, accountability, and peer support matter more than we sometimes admit. Dane also shares a bit of his story with Momentum over the years and gives an honest update on life and ministry as a church planter in Towson, Maryland with Church at the Well.

S5 | Ep 17 - The Changing Role of Youth Ministry (Feat. Walt Mueller) S5 | Ep 17 - The Changing Role of Youth Ministry (Feat. Walt Mueller) Fri, 09 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000 On this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric Miller sits down with longtime youth ministry leader Walt Mueller—founder of the Center for Parent/Youth Understanding (CPYU)—for a laid-back conversation packed with perspective for anyone serving students today.

Listen as the two talk about Walt's decades in student ministry, how CPYU started (and why helping parents understand their kids' world matters more than ever), and the shift from program-driven youth group to relational ministry that actually goes deep. Walt also shares encouragement for youth workers who feel the pressure—how to keep learning, take a hit, stay rooted in God's Word, and navigate technology and cultural change with wisdom instead of panic. And toward the end, Walt tells a story that brings it all home—one that challenges priorities and reminds leaders why family, rest, and a filled-up spiritual "well" aren't optional.

We're so excited for you to tune in and be part of this conversation!

Norman Schrock) Fri, 02 Jan 2026 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric Miller sits down with retired pastor and missionary Norman Schrock. Norman has worn a lot of hats (pastor, missionary, teacher, interim leader… even a few you wouldn't expect), and he shares the kind of perspective you only get through years of faithful ministry, hard seasons, and God's steady refinement.

Together they talk about how pastoring and ministry have shifted over the years—what's changed, what hasn't, and what young pastors need to watch out for in today's church culture. Norman also gets incredibly practical about staying rooted, staying healthy, and staying in it for the long haul (including some wisdom on marriage, accountability, and not letting ministry become your identity). 

If you're a pastor, leader, or just someone trying to stay fresh and faithful in your calling, this one will strengthen you. Press play and let Norm's stories remind you that God is still shaping His servants, no matter what season you're in.

S5 | Ep 14 - Generation Echo (Feat. David Wood) S5 | Ep 14 - Generation Echo (Feat. David Wood) Fri, 19 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with David Wood — pastor, magician, and founder of Generation Echo — for a conversation that's equal parts inspiring, honest, and challenging. Recorded in sunny Southern California, this episode dives into David's unique journey into ministry, how magic unexpectedly became part of his calling, and how God has been weaving together every chapter of his story for something bigger than he imagined.

David shares the heart behind Generation Echo and the moment a single statistic stopped him in his tracks — a number so big it's hard to ignore, yet paired with a solution that suddenly feels possible. From youth ministry to missions, from discernment to obedience, this conversation explores what it really looks like to listen for God's voice, take the next faithful step, and walk alongside the next generation as they wrestle with calling, purpose, and the Great Commission.

If you're a student wondering if God could really use you, a youth pastor longing to see students activated, or a leader passionate about missions but unsure where to start, this episode is for you. David doesn't offer a quick fix — he offers a pathway. One rooted in prayer, community, obedience, and trusting God with the steps you can't see yet. You won't want to miss this conversation.

S5 | Ep 13 - From Pain to Purpose: A Story of Joy in God's Word ( Feat. Anita Keagy) S5 | Ep 13 - From Pain to Purpose: A Story of Joy in God's Word ( Feat. Anita Keagy) Fri, 12 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode, Eric sits down with Anita for an honest, moving conversation that weaves together faith, family, loss, and the relentless grace of God. What begins as a story about growing up in a Christian home quickly unfolds into something much deeper—moments of youthful confidence, quiet compromise, and a life-altering turning point that forced Anita to wrestle with shame, fear, and trust in God's voice. Through it all, she reflects on the powerful role of grace, especially the kind that shows up when you expect judgment but instead receive love.

As the conversation continues, Anita shares how God met her in the aftermath of painful decisions and long seasons of waiting, slowly revealing His heart in unexpected ways. From unanswered questions to surprising connections, her story highlights what it looks like to seek God even when the path forward feels unclear. It's a reminder that faith isn't just built in mountaintop moments, but in the quiet, daily choice to show up.

This episode isn't just about one woman's story—it's an invitation. An invitation to move from being a part-time seeker to someone who genuinely desires to know God, to open His Word not out of obligation but out of hunger. Whether you're walking through joy, uncertainty, or something in between, this conversation will leave you reflecting on what it really means to seek God first—and why it changes everything.

In this episode, Eric sits down with Anita for an honest, moving conversation that weaves together faith, family, loss, and the relentless grace of God. What begins as a story about growing up in a Christian home quickly unfolds into something much deeper—moments of youthful confidence, quiet compromise, and a life-altering turning point that forced Anita to wrestle with shame, fear, and trust in God's voice. Through it all, she reflects on the powerful role of grace, especially the kind that shows up when you expect judgment but instead receive love.

S5 | Ep 12 - Holy Sexuality in a TikTok World (Feat. Christopher Yuan) S5 | Ep 12 - Holy Sexuality in a TikTok World (Feat. Christopher Yuan) Fri, 05 Dec 2025 05:00:00 +0000 In this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down at Momentum Youth Conference with speaker, author, and professor Christopher Yuan—someone whose story, teaching, and clarity on biblical identity have had a deep impact on students year after year. Christopher had just finished speaking in the main session and leading a packed Power Track when he joined us for this conversation, and the energy of what God was doing in the room is still fresh as they dive in.

Together, Eric and Christopher explore questions that pastors, parents, and students are wrestling with right now—how to navigate a culture overflowing with opinions, how to root identity in something deeper than emotion, and what it really means to pursue holiness in a world that often celebrates the opposite. Christopher also shares powerful pieces of his own journey, from unexpected places of brokenness to discovering a life fully transformed by Christ, and what led him to develop the concept of "holy sexuality."

If you've ever wondered how to speak truth with grace, how to disciple the next generation in a digital world, or how to think biblically about conversations surrounding identity, this episode gives you a thoughtful and hopeful place to begin. There's so much wisdom here you won't want to miss—but we'll let Christopher tell the rest. Tune in to hear more.

Tim Lansing) Fri, 28 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000 On this episode of the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with longtime friend and teammate Timothy Lansing for a heartfelt conversation about growing up in ministry, discovering calling, and the surprising ways God uses ordinary moments to shape extraordinary stories. Both Eric and Tim share pieces of their journey—from their earliest encounters with Momentum to the life-changing experiences that eventually led them into full-time ministry. But what were the turning points? Who were the people who nudged them forward? And how did God use those moments to form the leaders they are today?

Throughout the episode, they talk about the impact of faithful volunteers, prayer partners, youth pastors, and donors—the people behind the scenes who make life change possible. They also reflect on what they're seeing right now in churches and students across the country, and why they believe the next generation is stepping into something powerful. What stories are coming out of our Urban Centers? Why are students taking bold steps of faith? And what does it look like when a simple invitation or conversation changes someone's trajectory? 

If you're curious about the heart behind Momentum, the stories you don't always get to hear, or how God continues to raise up young leaders, you won't want to miss this one. Tune in for encouragement, gratitude, and a reminder that God is working, often long before we realize it.

In this special episode recorded live at Momentum Youth Conference, Eric sits down with three students who are living proof that God uses willing hearts at any age. You'll meet Nick, Ariana, and Nathan—each with a story that makes you ask, What could God do through me if I took just one bold step?

Nick kicks things off by sharing how a podcast he started as a junior unexpectedly turned into a school-wide ministry—complete with basement prayer nights, student testimonies, and even a surprise visit from an NFL player. But here's the real question: What happens when a student surrenders their plans, prays consistently, and lets God build something far bigger than they imagined? And what could that look like in your school, your youth group, or your friend circle?

Then you'll hear from Ariana, whose quiet faithfulness in leading a student prayer group is reshaping her entire youth ministry, and from Nathan, whose creativity is opening doors for conversations about faith through podcasting and storytelling. Their stories beg the question—What gift do you already have that God might be waiting for you to use? And if these students can shape culture in their schools and churches, imagine what could happen if more students stepped in with that same courage.

Greg Stier) Fri, 14 Nov 2025 05:00:00 +0000 What happens when you take more than 30 years of student-ministry experience, a nationwide research project, and a passion for seeing teenagers boldly share the gospel—and put it all into one conversation?

In today's episode, Eric sits down with Greg Stier, founder of Dare 2 Share, to talk about why students are uniquely positioned to reach their peers and how youth pastors can build ministries that truly advance the gospel. Are we accidentally building youth ministries without the engine? And what actually changes when students start praying, caring, and sharing every week?

Greg shares the behind-the-scenes story of Dare 2 Share, what the newest research reveals about effective youth ministry, and why today's teens are more spiritually open than ever before. If you've ever wondered how to help students own their faith, how to shift from "come and see" to "go and rescue," or how to spark real gospel movement in your church—this episode is for you.

Listen in, be encouraged, and get ready to rethink what's possible in your student ministry.

In this episode, Eric sits down with Travis Deans, the visionary behind Nine Month Mission Trip, for a conversation full of passion, purpose, and practical steps any student can take to live on mission. From the simple "pray, care, share" framework to the reminder that there's no junior Holy Spirit, Travis shares how God is moving through students across the country—and how youth leaders and parents can champion that calling.

What does it actually look like to equip students with confidence? Could their school be the mission trip God already paid for? And how can small acts of obedience spark big stories of life change?

Kadi Cole) Fri, 17 Oct 2025 04:00:00 +0000 Ministry isn't "his lane" or "her lane"—it's our lane. Here's how churches can equip both genders to lead well.

In this episode, Kadi Cole joins Eric for a powerful conversation on how ministry leaders—regardless of gender—can effectively disciple both male and female students.

What does it look like to build trust across gender lines, avoid awkwardness, and lead with gospel-centered confidence? Listen as we unpack practical ways to cultivate a balanced ministry, empower student leaders of both genders, and navigate today's cultural challenges without compromise.

They also unpack how Momentum Marketplace helps students and mentors discover how faith connects to every career path — and why the next generation needs leaders who know how to model godly collaboration.

Ministry isn't "his lane" or "her lane"—it's our lane. Here's how churches can equip both genders to lead well.

In this episode, Kadi Cole joins Eric for a powerful conversation on how ministry leaders—regardless of gender—can effectively disciple both male and female students.

What does it look like to build trust across gender lines, avoid awkwardness, and lead with gospel-centered confidence? Listen as we unpack practical ways to cultivate a balanced ministry, empower student leaders of both genders, and navigate today's cultural challenges without compromise.

They also unpack how Momentum Marketplace helps students and mentors discover how faith connects to every career path — and why the next generation needs leaders who know how to model godly collaboration.

S5 | Ep 3 - What Pastors Need Most (Feat. Gary Underwood) S5 | Ep 3 - What Pastors Need Most (Feat. Gary Underwood) Fri, 03 Oct 2025 04:00:00 +0000 In honor of Pastor Appreciation Month, Eric sits down with longtime pastor and Love Pastors founder Gary Underwood for a candid, hope-filled conversation about what truly encourages church leaders—far beyond a once-a-year card. From the "Monday email" reality to the hidden burdens that can leave pastors feeling unseen, listen as we unpack why personalized care matters more than generic gifts, how elders and staff can "have their pastor's back," and why peer friendships, counseling, and healthy rhythms are essential. Anchored in identity in Christ, this episode invites churches to turn appreciation into a year-round culture of one-anothering.

You'll hear practical ideas you can act on this week—thoughtful notes tied to real moments, and tailored gifts that show you truly see your pastor.

From heartbreaking loss to the moment God lifted the heaviness of grief, Brad shares how leaders can walk honestly through trauma while still modeling faith for their people.

Host Eric Miller sits down with President Jeff Bogue and new Vice President Donny Varney to remember our roots, honor those who laid our foundations & discipleship DNA, and unpack why our heartbeat is to serve—not compete with—the local church.

But how do you carry forward a leader's legacy without just copying it? What did Barna's research reveal that kept Jeff awake at night? And what made a 14-year-old say Momentum Youth Conference challenged her more than a mission trip?

In this episode, we tackle those questions—and hint at what's coming next for Momentum's future.
