    StudentCAST 14 - Fuge Giveaway

    Every year tens of thousands of students and student leaders travel to Fuge camp locations all over the country. Centrifuge alone has had the privilege of impacting over 1,000,000 students over the course of its history. This year students and leaders were able to participate in 'Dill or No Dill' a game-show atmosphere based on the popular TV series. Top prizes included a $100 iTunes gift card, an Xbox 360 game system, an 8-volume Fuel DVD collection, and a big screen TV. Contestants were able to play for a chance to win one of these top prizes for their youth ministry, with winners to be chosen at the end of the summer in a random drawing by the Fuge staff. Recently, some of the Fuge team here at LifeWay got together to conduct this drawing and call the winners 'live' via StudentCAST.

    StudentCAST 15 - Biblical Illiteracy

    You labor for hours, days, and sometimes even weeks on what you'll be helping your students learn about God and their faith. But when the time comes, many times all you see in front of you are blank stares from students who seem to know less and less about their faith and about God's Word. The truth probably comes as no surprise: students we work with are becoming more and more Biblically illiterate. Where does the problem lie and where do we begin to address this spiritual epidemic? In this episode Paul Turner, National Student Ministry Leader, sits down with Lynn Pryor, Biblical and Instructional Specialist for LifeWay Student MInistry, to talk about this important issue.

    StudentCAST 16 - Avoiding Ineffective Student Ministry

    None of us want to have a student ministry that is ineffective. It's not something that is going to make its way onto anyone's new years resolutions list. And yet, if we are not careful, we can find ourselves down the line having to readjust and learn things the hard way because of mistakes that we make today. How can we learn to avoid potential miscues without having to learn everything through the school of hard knocks? What steps can we take now to insure that we are laying the foundation for an effective and life-impacting student ministry? In this episode we sit down with several members of our student ministry team here at LifeWay to discuss common ailments that can lead to ineffective ministry and things that we can do now to avoid these pitfalls.
