Student Ministry Chat with the Youth Ministry Blog
If you haven't checked out theyouthministryblog.com, I encourage you to subscribe and read. I've enjoyed contributing on the blog to help encourage other youth leaders. I was interviewed on the podcast recently as we talked about building a healthy ministry and how to view events. Here are some highlights of the talk:
- The more time you spend in ministry, the LESS events you want to do.
- Do fewer events and make them higher quality.
- Put more energy & resources into your WEEKLY ministry.
- Don’t Event yourself to death.
- We don’t have to keep our students busy to protect them from the world!
- “Your job is to mobilize students & volunteers to fulfill God’s calling on their life.”
New Series - "Home Improvement"
New Source Student ministry series for November!
Families are not perfect. Every family is weird in their own way. Even with all the weirdness happening, there a few things that everyone still has in common. Each family has disagreements and arguments, and every family struggles to know and understand each other. We all come from a family with some type of need for improvement. We need our family, and this series will unpack the need for home improvement.
Week 1 - Honor your Parents The Word: Ephesians 6:1-3, Luke 2:51-52 Main Thought: Honor opens the door to a healthy relationship with parents.
Week 2 - Communicate and Listen The Word: Ephesians 4:24-29, Proverbs 18:13 Main Thought: The relationship is more important than winning the argument.
Week 3 - Forgive The Word: Ephesians 4:30-5:2, Romans 12:18 Main Thought: Pursue a relationship with your parents no matter what.
