Sam is joined by Ross Johnston and Cole Clark for an episode packed with youth-group chaos, questionable leadership decisions, and one high-speed love story that absolutely steals the show. From a late-night ride in Costa Rica that turns out to be much sketchier than anyone realized, to a campfire stunt that sends a show-off straight to the ER, to a leader who may or may not have facilitated some highway flirting, the disasters only escalate. Sam relives becoming that intern who roasted the wrong students, a nursing-home visit that turned into a full-blown sprint-for-your-life moment, and a camp prize that pushed one teenager’s heart rate into uncharted territory. Toss in Ross’s satanist saga and a missing kid secretly living at church, and this episode proves—yet again—that youth ministry might be the most unpredictable job on earth.

Sam is joined by Buddy Jenkins and John Scarborough for an episode loaded with unhinged youth ministry chaos—headlined by the story of a group of teens who were convinced they’d discovered a discarded mall mannequin deep in the woods, only to learn it was something far more real. From camp relay games gone horribly wrong, to sermons that nosedived at the worst possible moments, to a prayer circle where the only thing holier than the moment was the uncomfortable amount of hand-kissing involved, this one is stacked with stories you’ll wish you weren’t imagining. If you’ve ever worked with students, buckle up—this episode proves that even the most normal youth group day can turn into a legend…
