This week, Sam is joined by Sha Racks and George Johnson for an episode full of unforgettable youth ministry moments, headlined by a story that starts with one student waking up in the middle of the night to a cabin experience they definitely never signed up for. Along the way, they react to a youth conference crush confession that goes sideways in front of hundreds of students, a prank 911 text that brings the police to Bible study, a funeral mishap that left youth volunteers struggling to keep a straight face, a camp tradition that ended with someone unexpectedly unconscious, a sledding trip involving a very unfortunate frozen squirrel, a secret nose piercing during youth service, and a fishing trip where one family member took wildlife management into his own hands. It's another hilarious episode packed with the kind of stories that make youth ministry completely unpredictable.
