Switch Leader Podcast

Switch Leaders close out "The God Revealed in Jesus" with the Gospel of John, tackling a question every student wrestles with: how do you know someone is who they say they are? Josh and Kaitlyn walk through John 11's account of Lazarus's resurrection, showing how Jesus's words and actions consistently matched — proving He is exactly who He claimed to be. Leaders will get three powerful small group questions to carry students toward real, honest reflection: what pain are you hiding from Jesus, what limitations have you placed on His power, and who have you written off as too far gone? Plus, a challenge to stay locked in and lead well through a jam-packed, high-momentum month ahead.

This week, Switch Leaders dig into the Gospel of Luke and its bold claim: Jesus is the fulfillment of every promise God has made. Josh and Caitlin unpack Luke's introduction and Jesus' own introduction of Himself in Luke 4, where He reads a Messianic prophecy and declares, "Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing" — then challenge leaders to set aside their own expectations of who Jesus should be so students can encounter who He really is. Leaders will walk away with a three-step framework for helping students investigate Jesus with confidence, plus a fresh challenge to keep setting the tone and holding the line in small group.

In this episode, Josh Baldwin and Kaitlyn Caffrey continue "The God Revealed in Jesus" with the Gospel of Mark, unpacking how Jesus is the Son of God and rightful King who is both all-powerful and perfectly loving. They explore why we can't have the kingdom without the King, and challenge leaders to help students wrestle with what it really means to deny themselves and follow Him. A practical conversation on submission, obedience, and pointing students toward the significant invitation Jesus extends to each of us.

In this episode, Josh Baldwin and Kaitlyn Caffrey kick off The God Revealed in Jesus by exploring the Gospel of Matthew and the good news that Jesus is the promised Messiah who brings the Kingdom of Heaven to earth. They unpack common misconceptions about following Jesus and challenge leaders to help students see that faith isn’t just about eternity—it’s about experiencing the life and mission of Jesus right now. A practical conversation about setting the tone for a new semester and inviting students to follow Jesus more fully.
