Toccoa Falls, Ga. (December 24, 2024) – Toccoa Falls College is excited to congratulate Dr. Rich Griffith on the release of his new book, Discipleship is Leadership: Stages of Generational Development. As a single dad to three sons who has worked with teens and families for over 30 years, Dr. Griffith has an undeniable passion to help young people and those who disciple them. TFC is proud to recognize our Associate Professor of Youth Ministries, Dr. Rich Griffith! 

In his new book, Dr. Griffith combines his experience as a professor and parent to bring readers a rare read that complements his previous book, Voices: Helping Our Children and Youth Listen to Wise Counsel. Practical and insightful, this work helps parents, grandparents, teachers, and youth workers discover how to make discipleship applicable. Through real-life stories, experiences, and inspiring biblical examples, leadership and discipleship are woven together amidst the backdrop of Erik Erikson’s developmental stages. This book will help readers nurture young minds by understanding how they grow and develop, even through those challenging teenage years. 

In addition to his role as author and professor, Dr. Griffith also serves as a part-time pastor, contributes to various academic journals, and is featured on several podcasts. Toccoa Falls College thanks Dr. Griffith for his Kingdom impact and for sharing this resource for families across the world!
