    How to Keep Your Youth Ministry's "Camp High" Momentum Going!

    How to Keep Your Youth Ministry's "Camp High" Momentum Going!

    Summer camp is such an excellent time for building those relationships with our youth group students and helping them grow in their love and knowledge of Jesus!  It's a time when great messages are preached, awesome moments of worship are had, fun games are played and the quality time spent out in nature to unwind and focus on God is unmatched...the camp high is definitely real in student ministry, but how do we keep that momentum going?  Today we look at some ways to make sure that all that momentum isn't lost when we get back from camp and back into our regular youth group program.

    We love hearing from you all and we do our best to provide powerful and insightful content on a weekly basis to be that coach and mentor you may not have, but desperately need.

    Getting Parents Involved in Youth Ministry

    Getting Parents Involved in Youth Ministry

    How do we get parents more involved and connected to our youth ministry?  Sometimes parents seem like strangers in a car that drop off and pick up their students for youth group.  Are you are looking to just increase communication and ministry awareness with parents?  Are you trying to get parents to be more actively involved in helping with your youth ministry on a Sunday or a midweek program day? Or maybe, as a youth director, are you are just flat out afraid of parents?? 

    Today, we take a look at 8 different ways that we can increase the engagement of parents in student ministry.  Some of the topics we cover in this episode are: Having parents as small group leaders, communication with parents, having parents drive for you to events, security - medical - parking teams, donation sign ups, the golden hour of youth group and church and hosting events.  Having parental support in your ministry is game changing, so making sure that parents are actively involved in our ministry can take student participation to the next level.  Don't neglect parents - youth pastors don't just minister to youth, they should be ministering to the whole family!
