What if church wasn’t built on programs, but on real community? In this episode, Josh and Kyle sit down with Ander Chen of Acts 2 Network to unpack how their ministry reaches college students, disciples them intentionally, and raises up lifelong kingdom workers—all without a cookie-cutter system.

They talk about life-on-life discipleship, bivocational ministry, and why college ministry might be the most overlooked but strategic age group in the church today. Whether you're a youth leader, a college student, or just wondering what church could look like, this conversation will challenge you to go deeper than just “doing church.”

• Why college students are often spiritually hungry—and often forgotten
• The power of life-on-life discipleship over flashy programming
• How Acts 2 Network plants ministries by prioritizing relationships
• Challenges of discipling intellectual, searching students
• Preparing high school students for spiritual life in college
• What bivocational ministry looks like in real life
• Why true discipleship starts with faithfulness, not excellence
