Team Talk Podcast
A podcast brought to you by North East Youth for Christ.
Team Talk is a short, practical and faith-filled podcast for youth leaders, volunteers, schools workers, pastors and anyone investing in the next generation.
What is Team Talk about?
Team Talk sits in the space between leadership and youth ministry.
It’s not a podcast about games, events or keeping young people entertained.
It’s about becoming the leader God has called you to be.
Every episode is designed to be listened to on a walk, in the car, on the way to school or church, or during a short break in your day.
The heart behind the podcast
At North East Youth for Christ, our vision is to see every young person live out their God-given identity and purpose.
“It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for.”
— Ephesians 1:11 (The Message)
We believe leadership is not primarily about building platforms. It’s about helping people discover Jesus, understand who they are, and step into the purpose God has prepared for them.
Watch/Listen to Episodes
Every Young Person Is a Leader Somewhere
In this episode, we are talking about how every young person is a leader somewhere, and we have a responsibility to help them discover the influence they already have.
How Do I Lead From Overflow Instead of Empty?
In this episode, we are talking about leading from overflow, rather than from empty — exploring intimacy with God, healthy rhythms and changing the atmosphere.
What Kind of Culture Am I Creating?
This week we unpack the question ~ What kind of culture am I creating every time I show up? Culture is 'the way we do things around here.' But are the young people actually experiencing the culture you want?

Becoming the Leader Who Raises Leaders

How to get the most out of Team Talk
Don’t just listen for information. Listen for formation.
1. Listen with a notebook
Write down the one sentence, question or idea that stays with you.
2. Reflect before you act
Ask not only, “What should I do?” but also, “Who is God inviting me to become?”
3. Apply one thing this week
Choose one practical step. It could be a conversation, an encouragement, a delegated responsibility, or a new rhythm.
Transformation rarely happens through information alone.
