10 ways to entertain young children for $1 or less without the TV (Funny, all of them will entertain me for hours, too!)

Things to look for in youth ministry volunteers (Ken forgot to mention that they have to be young and cool… oh wait, no they don’t.)

5 things youth ministers don’t want you to know (My own addition: I secretly laugh on the inside when your middle school kid publicly, but innocently, says something embarrassing about you and your family.)

Overwork and Youth Ministry (Not just another “burnout” post, this one talks about overworking volunteers and rethinking our approach youth group activities.)

Tim, having my kids say something embarrassing about my family is what scares me about my boys growing up. :) I’m so glad their only 3 and 1 right now – I’ve got at least a few years before they start telling people stuff they shouldn’t.

Tim,
Got here from Bobby Williams’ blog. Thanks for the links. I especially liked the one about not overworking your volunteers. I’m a big Kurt Johnson fan.

About me: I am married to my beautiful wife, Dana, and together we live in Minnesota where I serve as the youth pastor at our local church. The opinions expressed here are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of my church. More about me...
