Confessions of an Average Youth Minister



Creative Worship

Let’s Get Cheesy

While some of my students are really into our story series there are others who are getting a little tired of it. You can just see it in their eyes. So I tried to come up with a way to spice up the story this week. I thought it would be funny to add a bunch of pictures as I told the story, but I couldn’t figure out how to cue my tech person on when to fire them. So instead I just recorded a video of me telling the story and stuck the pictures in.

It isn’t perfect, in fact it is pretty rough, but it worked. The spirit of the lesson improved greatly and more students seemed to be involved in the story and the discussion. Anyway, I thought it would be funny to stick it here for you to see.

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.

    Keep up the good work, i’m sure those kids that are into your series are loving it. the others will come around, even if it’s only in a few years when they thinking back on it.

    thanks for a cool website.

    God Bless
