Posts From Other Awesome People

We search the Internet to bring you relevant information to help you be a better youth worker. Here are some links from posts we thought were pretty great.

Fav Read Of The Week:

• Changing the Perspective of Your Adult Volunteers by Doug Franklin. Loved this post from Doug. I could immediately picture those volunteers in our church's ministry who have pigeonholed themselves in their self-defined roles. Love what Doug says here: "If you want to help your volunteers become more intentional, you need to challenge the perspective of your volunteers." Good stuff. 

The Rest Of The Best:

• Adam McLane, The Machine & The Magician: What you need to know about distraction
• Brad Griffin, How well do you know young peopleâs stress?
• Bryan Young, 4 Calls to Action Your Church Website Should Have
• Doug Fields, The Youth Ministry Garage moves toward show #200
• John Alexander, Stay Focused On The Main Thing
• Mark Oestreicher, the parenting pendulum
• Mike Kupferer, Loners, Losers, and Wallflowers: A Response
• Paul Turner, Accepting Your Youth Ministry As They Are, Small and All
