In this episode, Brent Aiken and David Pruitt explore why endings matter more than we often realize in youth ministry. As the school year wraps up, students are navigating transitions, emotions, and change—whether they can articulate it or not.

This conversation will help you lead students through meaningful reflection, intentional closure, and healthy transitions so they don’t just move on—but move forward with purpose.
