What’s Youth Hacks?

Youth Hacks is an internet talk show for youth workers. This show is created by a group of friends, most of whom met through Mount Paran Church of God in Atlanta. Regular contributors include Josh CookJoel DiazSara LiebrossLoyd and Christy Harp and David Grant. Past guests include Andrew MarinAdam McLane from Youth SpecialtiesTim SchmoyerJay Bakker, and Jeff Berg from Ministry Centered.

Our theme music was created by Matt Wright.

We post new episodes about once a month, with the occasional interview thrown in for good measure.

Joel Diaz gets paid to hang out with middle and high school students (which he thinks is crazy because he would do it for free), works with a team of paid and volunteer staff to create unique worship environments, enjoys leading worship when given the opportunity, and loves to network with fellow youth workers in the Southwest Georgia region.

Sara Liebross(aka “SaraLee” since no teenager in Roswell can pronounce her last name) is the Student Ministries Serve Director at Fellowship Bible Church. She likes to paint. and write. and laugh. and hang out with students like it’s her job. She hates this picture that Josh put on the website just to spite her. She embraces awkwardness. She also really wants a puppy. REALLY. Sara is also working on her best idea from 2010: “Fireproof: The Musical” She’s currently waiting to hear back from Kirk.
