Working in counseling I’ve learned that there are a lot more things that can rock our world that I never knew existed. Many of those things are hidden struggles that others may never know about — or at least they don’t know about until something comes along and quite literally “opens up a can” of past trauma or hidden struggles.

Check them out here: https://www.threecordshoals.com/ This weekend is one of the most anticipated weekends of the year for me. Nine years ago kenya and I attended the very first Ministering to Youth Conference (M2YConference.com) in Orlando, Florida. My friend, Brian Staron, had invited me to join the board for this new event to encourage anyone who worked with young people in the church. I gladly accepted and it’s been rolling along ever since. We did Orlando one year, Chattanooga one year, Pigeon Forge for 5 years, Knoxville last year and then Heritage Christian in Florence AL for this year’s conference. This year’s theme is “to this day.” Links mentioned in this episode: http://www.benandtravis.com http://www.facebook.com/groups/benandtravis http://www.patreon.com/benandtravis Reframing Hope Book https://www.benandtravis.com/books Helping.
