Scott Schimmel started The You School several years ago to help kids make the transition into adulthood. He and his team help students, families, and others who are in times of transition work through five key questions:

• What do you believe in?
• Who are you becoming?
• What’s your mission?
• How are you going to contribute?
• Who do you belong to?

This is a process of identity formation, which, when it comes down to it, is also a process of spiritual formation.

In this episode, Scott Schimmel shares about how The YouSchool is helping not only kids, but all kinds of people (including veterans) make challenging transitions that ultimately lead to a life of purpose and fulfillment.
