OK ok ok, we know it has been some time since we have recorded a new episode of the DYM Podcast. After a year of pandemic navigating, we wanted to come on and share some learnings and encouragement for our youth ministry community.

In this special episode of the podcast (featuring YM Hacks hosts from the DYM Podcast Network) Justin and Matthew sat down some some of our friends at Samaritan's Purse who run Operation Christmas Child to talk about how youth groups can have an easy way to serve those around the world without leaving their church. We are always looking for great ways to help students realize there is more outside themselves and this is a great way to do that.
