37 S3 Ep 6 - The #1 Secret to Effective Teaching – with Dave Rahn

If you instantly want to be more effective as a leader, teacher, or person in ministry, then pay attention to motivation. That’s what Terry talks about with Dave Rahn (Ph.D., Purdue) on this podcast. Dave is the Senior Ministry Advisor for Youth for Christ USA and has had a shaping influence in the field of youth ministry for the last 40+ years.

He is a leader in Yale Divinity School’s The Theology of Joy and the Good Life Project and his recent book publications include Evangelism Remixed: Empowering Students for Courageous and Contagious Faith and Symmetry: Fixing Broken Patterns for Kids in Crisis. More recently, he was a contributing author to the book TEACHING THE NEXT GENERATIONS with a fascinating chapter on motivation and teaching, which comes out October 18th.
