My Favorite TV Show

Duck Dynasty! Why?

It is hilarious. It teaches character. I laugh out loud. The show always finishes with prayer.

My favorite reason is that the Robertson's follow Jesus.

I ran across this video clip of Willie Robertson speaking at Harding University Chapel. I love how he is using the platform of being famous for God. Check it out!

 

Collaboration | The Student Ministry Kind

I am always encouraged when I spend time with other leaders who love Jesus and students.

I've been to numerous conferences and one day trainings in the past 10 years or so (NYWC, Orange, Youth Pastor Summit, conventions, YS one day, pastor conferences). I enjoy conferences and still want to go to them in the future.

But.

I'm learning that building relationships with other leaders is where I have grown the most.

Collaboration is all about... Sharing ideas. Praying for for one another. Praying for each other's family. Keeping each other accountable. Sharing resources. Planning teaching series together. Learning from each other's mistakes. Encouraging each other in our calling.

We spent time visiting LCBC in Harrisburg, PA this past weekend to hang out with friends and learn from a great church. I'm thankful for the chance to learn and that Cassidy and Micah get to travel with me!

What have you learned about conferences? How do you collaborate as a youth worker?

Teaching Video: Small Start to God's Greater Life

I shared a message during Thanksgiving weekend in "big church" for the 3rd week of the "Greater" series.

I love my church!
