FYI is here, and along with it we are sending you today…
A link to our brand new Urban Youth Ministry Certificate page on our brand new website (can you tell we are excited about all that is “brand new”?). Applications are due on November 15; check it out now!
A link to our brand new (there we go again with “brand new”) Deep Leadership resource, which gives you a school year’s worth of training materials for your entire volunteer team.
The very good news is that from now on, the FYI E-Journal will be coming to you monthly, instead of bimonthly. We look forward to sharing this next FYI chapter with you!
Efrem Smith Interview: Urban-Suburban Blend
Kara Powell talks with Efrem Smith, pastor of Sanctuary Covenant Church in Minneapolis, who helps us bust some of the myths and embrace some of the realities of an emerging urban-suburban blend in culture and our youth ministries.
Recruiting Leaders: New Ideas from Old Pros
If you haven’t asked God to bring you more volunteers, you probably haven’t been in youth ministry very long. We recently asked four youth ministry veterans (with over 70 years of combined experience) to give us glimpses into the good, the bad and the ugly (sometimes the very ugly) of recruiting leaders.
See Jane Deal With Her Body
While adolescence has always been a time of physical (and all kinds of other) changes, the way teenage girls experience those changes is now, in fact, changing. As youth workers hustling to keep up with this shifting landscape, we are grateful for a recent batch of research that helps us keep pace and respond effectively to girls who look in the mirror and aren’t sure how to handle what they see.
