The Leader Lounge
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.

Ep. 9 - The One Where Jesus Raises Lazarus From The Dead [John 11:1-50]
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode we read John 11:1-50 and discuss the story of Jesus raising his friend Lazarus from the dead. Jesus got word that Lazarus was sick, but he stayed where he was long enough for Lazarus to die. His disciples couldn't believe when he wanted to go back to Judea because the Jewish leaders had already tried to kill him there. When they arrived, Lazarus' sisters, Martha and Mary both approached Jesus separately saying, "If you had been here, my brother would not have died." Jesus knew he was going to raise Lazarus from the dead, and he still entered into his friends' pain, weeping alongside them. Then, in a powerful display of his divinity, Jesus yelled in a loud voice - "Lazarus, come out!" Lazarus walked out of the tomb!
This miracle set the stage for Jesus to be betrayed, arrested, and crucified.
