The Youth Room [twelve:thirty]students

Episode 20

We tell our leaders all the time “we could not do student ministry without you” and it its something that we really and truly mean, with all our heart. They aren’t just a vital part of our ministry, they are a true necessity to our ministry.

We literally would not be able to have a student ministry retreat without adult chaperons. We wouldn’t have anyone to lead small groups and we wouldn’t have anyone to help connect with our students.

So once we’ve gotten leaders, how do we work with them to communicate well and help train them? How do we help them feel valued and keep coming back?

Join the guys as they share their tips to working with volunteers…1. Safety First2. Clear Expectations and Clear Communication3. Have a Personal Touch4. Make Them the Hero5. Celebrate What You Want to Replicate

Episode 19

Worship through music! It’s honestly probably one of the harder things to pull off during a worship experience. Especially if you aren’t a musician or don’t have a background in sound or playing an instrument.

At the same time it can feel like an expectation to include a time of worship, and truthfully students do love this part of our services.

So what can we do to start, improve and make the most of our musical worship times in the youth room?

Check out this episode for some thoughts and insights from us!

If you are in ministry for any length of time, and if you are in student ministry for at least a week, YOU WILL MAKE MISTAKES. I like to think of it as “a part of the job.” Besides accepting this, there really are a few practical steps that you can take to ensure these moments are handled well and not wasted.
