If you’re a fan of the Life In Student Ministry Facebook page or if you follow me on Twitter, you saw me mention an open youth ministry round-table Skypecast discussion for Friday afternoon. About eight of you showed up! Despite some initial technical difficulties, the conversation actually went very well for a first-time attempt. In fact, we’re going to try it again this Friday and possibly make it a regular thing. We discussed several issues together that we’re currently facing in our ministries:

• One-on-one discipleship plans
• Handling ministry responsibilities on our day off
• How to answer students’ tough questions about God
• Summer ministry plans
• Some of our favorite youth group games
• And more

It was a fun and energizing time to just hang out, relax and talk about life and ministry. I’m looking forward to the conversation again this Friday at 1:00 PM Central Time. Plus, I’ll have a LIVE video feed running this time, too.

Joining Skypecasts is really quite simple. For details about how this works, visit my new Skypecast page. All you need to listen is a Windows computer and Skype (it’s FREE!). If you’d like to participate in the discussion, you’ll also need a working microphone.

This Friday at 1:00 PM Central Time, login to Skype and hang out with me and other youth workers online. In the meantime, add me to your Skype contacts: rockinyp Oh, and become a fan of my Facebook page so you don’t miss out on opportunities like this again in the future. I’ll be announcing featured guests through the Facebook page who are already lined up to join us in up-coming conversations.
