"Your calling matters too much for you to not take care of yourself."

- Eran Holt

‍

Eran and his wife Julie and their three children, Caleb, Emma, and Ellie currently reside in Poconos, PA.  Eran has over 20 years of Student Ministry experience having most recently served as the Student Ministries Pastor at GT Church, Reading, PA for over 15 years.  During their tenure, the student ministry grew from roughly 30 students to over 400.  Eran’s passionate, creative and relevant preaching has distinguished him as a prophetic voice and communicator.  He speaks at various churches, camps, retreats, conventions and conferences.  Eran’s passion is to inspire adults to become spiritual fathers and mothers who will raise up an army of students to lead their generation.  In 2016 Eran & Julie founded Lead the Generation, a non-profit ministry providing training and inspiration for youth pastors, volunteer youth leaders and student leaders.  Eran equips Youth Pastors from all over the nation through his Coaching Program called Mastermind.

Michael Jordan is famous for saying “Success comes from repetition of the drills.” Whether it is basketball or youth ministry, that principle still rings true. Ryan Latham has done a brilliant job in Prepared for Impact as he walks youth leaders through some of the strategic basics of moving a ministry dream toward a ministry reality. He gives seasoned wisdom on everything from effective planning of vision night, retreats, and much more. I commend this book wholeheartedly for youth leaders who want to move from good to great!
