    Cliff and Michelle talk with Maggie Johnson, Director of Youth at Shallowford Presbyterian Church about Small Groups Top 5 Go to Program Ideas 5) Backwards Book Club Choose a Book. When youth arrive at youth group, they get the book and a few highlighters. During youth group, go through a few key stories, passages and let them highlight, talk about the book. It is “backwards” because then they can take the book home and have it on their shelf. Favorites: Anne Lamott, Help, Thanks, Wow. 4) LIFE-SKILLS Cooking, changing a tire, etiquette. Learn some skills you need for life. Make a devotion out of feasting together, considering who the feeding of the 5000 and what it means when Jesus says- you feed them. Look at the faith journey and learn to change a tire. What are the lessons from the road. 3) Grocery Store Challenge Meet at a grocery store, take the church van.
