Pilgrim’s Podcast #28: Dave Miers, Youth Ministry, Humble Orthodoxy & Snoring on Trains

PPlogo2Warning: This was one rowdy podcast!

Steve and I sat down and chewed the fat with Dave Miers.  Hailing from the Central Coast (home of the Bears NRL team coming in 2012), Dave currently studies theology with Steve and myself at Moore Theological College.  He’s got a whole lot of youth ministry under his belt from working at CCEC, and is a keen thinker and passionate guy who loves Jesus.  In fact, if you’re up at Katoomba Youth Convention (KYCK) this year you’ll see and hear him as he preached the Word to us.  He’s a top bloke, and a fella who I’m glad to be spending eternity with.

In this cracker of an episode, we have a whole lot of banter.  That’s a given.  But Dave talks to us about his story in becoming a Christian, and he tells us a little about his passion for youth ministry.  What’s the highlight (in my opinion!) of this episode that Dave shares with us what he thinks about Humble Orthodoxy.  Not being arrogant jerks who have the truth.  Nor being softies who love anything, except the truth.  It’s both: humble orthodoxy.

Get into it. It’s a great podcast!

as much as i’m a dave miers fan, i’m not sure you can claim him as your first international speaker on the podcast. i’m sure you’ve had a few already – Dr Null springs to mind!

sorry Dave! ;-)

Great stuff, interesting stuff about humble orthodoxy. Good to hear for a “young punk” like myself. Humility is something we can all hear.

And liked the reflections on youth ministry, I hope we have more youth ministers that stay in the game for a long time.

Cheers all! Well Dave, you can be the first international australian speaker on the pod! …

Calum, good thoughts mate. I hope we can have more youth ministers like that too!
