We have real concerns and fears for the kids we love. More than anything we want to see younger generations follow Jesus with conviction and compassion. Steve welcomes authors Mike Handler and Sam Luce to discuss their book Forming Faith: Discipling the Next Generation in a Post-Christian Culture.  Mike serves as the Chief Innovation Officer for Awana. Prior to Awana, Mike was a pastor, a church planter as well as the principle of a creative agency. Mike is a coauthor of Resilient and the cofounder of the Child Discipleship Forum.
