The Leader Lounge Podcast helps youth leaders and parents bring the stories of Jesus to life so they can communicate the Gospel with kids in a way that is clear, compelling, and true.


Co-hosts Emily and Chris Storms are Young Life and WyldLife leaders who love Scripture and enjoy helping others grow in biblical literacy, curiosity, and confidence as they share Jesus with teenagers.


Each week, in about 20 minutes, they read a Gospel story, talk through honest questions and observations, and model how to retell that story in everyday language your kids can actually understand and remember.​


Whether you are a high school or college-age ministry leader or a parent who wants more natural Gospel conversations at home, you will walk away from every episode with a clearer picture of Jesus and practical ideas for your next Club talk, Bible study, or bedtime conversation. New episodes release every Tuesday morning, offering a light, fun, and inspirational space to deepen your love for Scripture and become a better communicator of the Gospel.
