Right on the heels of yesterday’s post on, “Ideas for using txt messaging in youth ministry,” comes a great FREE resource.

North Park University and the people in the Department of Christian Formation in the Evangelical Covenant denomination have partnered to bring you FREE txt devotions you can send to your youth group kids every day using a service like Txtsignal.com.

Right now there are 3 months available, each addressing a different topic:

• Risk
• Loving God
• Loving Others

Each devotional includes a scripture reference and a couple reflection questions. For example:

Luke 7:36-50 What prompted this woman’s extravagant actions? Has God’s forgiveness caused you to love him extravagantly? How? If not, what’s holding you back?

These txt devotions are available for download from the Evangelical Covenant’s website:

3 months of free txt devotions to send to your teens

CONTRIBUTE TO FREEBIE FRIDAY: If you’ve benefited from others who have freely shared their youth ministry resources online, consider giving back to the community by sharing your own materials here. Send me your donations for review and if I publish them in a Freebie Friday, you’ll receive full credit, a link, lots of gratitude and a warm feeling inside that comes from sharing with others.
