Every youth minister strives to help students develop a faith that sticks with them for life. At this year’s retreat, youth ministers will get practical insight on this crucial aspect of ministry from Brad Griffin, co-author of the youth worker edition of "Sticky Faith."

He also leads workshops, consults with youth workers and manages FYI’s online presence. The co-author of Sticky Faith (Youth Worker Edition) and Deep Justice Journeys, Griffin is a prolific contributor to the FYI E-Journal, Journal of Student Ministries and YouthWorker Journal. He holds a Master of Divinity with a concentration in youth, family and culture from Fuller Seminary. He also has an undergraduate degree in psychology from Asbury College in Wilmore.
