Episode 78: Leveraging Dysfunction

Whether the source is a teacher, pastor, counselor, social researcher, story plot, or just plain personal experience...most of us realize that chronic difficulty and dysfunction growing up goes on to negatively affect us later in life. But can we leverage that dysfunction to actually (perhaps ironically) thrive? Moreover, can we teach our students how to do that? Dr. Ike Miller joins Jeff to discuss what that perspective looks like, and how to employ it from a general pastoral sense AND a youth ministry sense in the local church.
