Confessions of an Average Youth Minister

Daddy Fears

My wife and I went to meet some of her family in Auburn today and we decided to go to Chewacala (the state park there which now costs 3 bucks a person to get into!). Meredith’s family had never been there before so she wanted to take them down this long path to the waterfall and let them climb on the rocks to take pictures.

Well, I was a nervous wreck the whole time. At every root and rock I was sure Meredith was going to fall down and hurt herself and we would have to call a helicopter to airlift her out of there. If being a dad makes me anywhere near as nervous as I am about being the husband of a pregnant woman I am in for a hard time.

I don't have all of the answers and some weeks it feels like I don't have any of the answers. I often find a good word picture or object lesson and build the lesson off of that instead of the other way around. I don't always pray as much as I should and I never study as much as I should. But I love students ministry. I love watching teenagers as they serve God. I love to see them worship and forget about themselves for a while. I love seeing someone wake up to the love of God if only for a little while. I love to see them out serving their community and sharing the love of Christ with others. I love to be a part of their lives and I love seeing the world through their eyes. I am an average youth minister.
