Now is the time to grow a healthy, thriving youth ministry...if you'd like to work with us, check out GrowYourYouthMinistry.com *** Getting the right youth ministry volunteers is step one...but how do you retain them? Volunteer retention might be the most overlooked youth pastor leadership skill in student ministry today. While we pour energy into recruiting and training new team members, keeping them engaged for the long haul requires an entirely different approach. In this episode, we share battle-tested strategies for volunteer longevity.
This episode will challenge youth ministry leaders to view volunteer retention not as a checkbox to complete but as an ongoing commitment requiring intentionality and care. Learn how to transform your leadership approach from merely managing volunteers to cultivating a thriving community where leaders stay engaged not just because they believe in the mission, but because they've found a place they belong.
People join for the team, not the task!
