Chris Hargrove
Chris Hargrove joined YM360 in 2024 as the Managing Editor of Youth Pastor Resources. Before joining the YM360 team, Chris served in youth ministry for 15 years in various church sizes, including smaller and multi-site churches. He finds joy in encouraging, equipping, and supporting youth leaders through coaching, writing, speaking, building relationships, and encouraging them as they pour into the next generation. He still loves serving students (especially those wild middle schoolers), challenging them in ping-pong, and helping them discover who God is and who God calls them to be.
Chris holds a Master of Arts in Discipleship and a Master of Divinity in Leadership from Liberty University. You can often find him enjoying a member's only pizza slice combo from the famous Sam's Club with his family throughout the year. Chris is happily married to his wonderful wife, Carrie, who homeschools their two daughters.
