Freebie Friday #120: Excellent “stuff I can use” in youth ministry

Posted on April 09, 2009 by Tim Schmoyer | Print This Post

Free youth ministry resources every Friday There are tons of youth ministry resource websites out there, some of them helpful, some of them not. But when I was recently turned on to StuffICanUse.com, I instantly bookmarked it. The site is run by some guys from a church in Louisville, KY, who have the same heart I do for resourcing leaders. In fact, their story is exactly the same as mine that prompted me to start Freebie Friday: they put a lot of work into creating a lesson series, used it once, and then just watched it collect digital dust on a hard drive somewhere. Although there are similarities in our hearts for you guys, they definitely out-do me on the web design edge. Their site looks so slick! I love it!

StuffICanUse.com Best of all, though, is that their materials are all very high-quality, useful and looks amazingly professional. You usually won’t get a transcript or an outline of the actual lessons, but after you see all the graphics and promo tools they provide, you almost don’t even care. For each series, they usually include things like high-res posters, postcards, flyers, count-down timers, PowerPoint background, movie loops, Photoshop files, promo videos, and more.

Great stuff! I came across the site back in August when it was vineresources.com and have been using their material ever since. It's way better than anything I could ever produce, plus I don't have to take time making stuff! There is so much material available and just about any topic can be taught using their graphics and resources. Awesome shout-out Tim!
