Are you ready to grow the size and health of your youth ministry? Check out
GrowYourYouthMinistry.com *** As a youth pastor, do you ever feel like you are becoming just a program director? This question haunted me early in youth ministry, especially as our youth group grew. What I discovered transformed our approach—program isn't the goal, but rather the vehicle that creates community, which in turn facilitates genuine discipleship and Christ-centered transformation.
In this episode, we unpack five practical strategies that have revolutionized our ministry's impact. Youth ministry should never be measured by attendance numbers or entertainment value. Success is creating communities where students find belonging and discipleship that sustains their faith journey long after graduation.
