My love for the youth keeps me passionate, seeing them have a community of believers. Something I really wish I had as a teen. Seeing them join in services and genuinely grow.
I’m 9 months late! But I am grateful for this video. One thing that keeps me passionate and renewed for youth ministry is Fasting (and prayer).It always puts everything back into perspective for me
What keeps me passionate? Columbine High School shooting back in 1999, the boys who did the shooting. Knowing there are teens out there hurting and broken to shoot up a school to prove they were hurting inside not just from home, but from peers at school. Every teen needs to hear about The One who is the answer to their brokenness. Helping them to turn Jesus before drugs, alcohol, porn, or violence. Equipping our teens to share about Jesus to their peers or anyone.
I’m 39 and want to transition from volunteer to youth pastor full time. It’s been a 2 year stirring in me, wife/momma of 2… but youth ministry continues to call my heart. Love these videos!
I love this guys! Thank you! Also, I’m in the middle of looking at curriculum and I actually came to your channel to see if you had any thoughts on that, and found this. I still have the question though! What are your thoughts on either buying or making a curriculum? Thanks and God Bless!
Hi Raven! Thanks so much for reaching out! We are so glad you found our channel and are finding it helpful! Over the years I've bought curriculum here and there and just always kind of found it fell short. In my opinion, most of the messages intended for students are just a little too shallow. I love using the church resources page on lifechurch.tv. It's 100% free and I can use the sermons and resources as a jumping off point and then fill in the rest in myself. As far as the bigger purchases for curriculum, Grow Curriculum would be one of the best options. I hope this helps!
Blessings to you both, had been a while since i listened in but at a very good time, thanks for the guidance through the scriptures, God has placed it all there for us.. how do i keep passionate? Jesus said in Matthew 28:19-20, to make disciples, and to know that youths are in the age where we some crucial decisions and habits are madefor our lives, why not give them the opportunity to allow Jesus to decide for them and form thier character and personality.
Hi Nathalie!! You are so right! This is an incredibly important time period for youth and their spiritual journeys as they are developing their identities.

what is the difference between youth pastor and youth minister
@steelertalk - I actually don't think there is a difference. I think different churches just call the same job different things.
I believe haggai mentions farting and dodgeball
I am just seeing this comment right now...and I love it 😂👏
