The mission of this podcast is to highlight the beauty and diversity of God’s Church – both in Chattanooga and the Church at large.
Although Jason Leonard never planned on a college ministry career, he’s become a seasoned mentor for students during his fourteen-plus years of work at The House. In this episode, Jason shares some of his insights as he and Adam delve into the world of college ministry.
Jason moved to Chattanooga from Seattle in 2005 to work for The House, a ministry for college students at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. As the Executive Director of this nonprofit, Jason not only tends to his “congregation” of students – he also works with the churches, foundations, and donors that fund The House. But fundraising isn’t Jason’s only challenge. In a ministry with a high turnover rate, Jason and his team have to be careful in how the steward their relationships with college kids while walking with them through some of life’s toughest moments.
Listen in to this episode to hear more about Jason’s story and the beginning of Adam and Jason’s discussion of technology and social media.
