We tend to focus solely on spiritual aspects of our youth ministry when assessing its health. Those aspects are certainly important, but practically speaking in terms of daily life, the mental and emotional aspects are just as important. How prepared is the average youth worker to handle and accept the various conditions some students have as they walk through our church doors? Cassidy Ford, a business franchising expert who grew up with Jeff in youth ministry, talks about her own experience of mental health in the church and how she currently promotes self-advocacy in the marketplace.
