Help and encouragement for Christian Youth Leaders |

New Sunday School lesson added this week The Bible. |

This website is specifically designed for Christian Sunday School teachers, youth group leaders, and youth pastors. I have posted many of my unique Sunday School Lesson Plans for you to download free. Each lesson plan is surrounded by the resources used to create the lesson and lead the class. I update with new posts, Sunday School lessons, and resources every week so keep coming back. Yes, this may be just a home-built website, not as flashy as those professional ones, but it's loaded with great stuff -one of the best collections of resources for junior high and high school ministry on the web. My goal is not to re-invent the wheel but to become the leading source for Christian youth group resources. The small commissions I make from referrals helps defray hosting expenses. Whether you're twenty-six or sixty-two, a Christian youth leader makes an eternal difference in the lives of kids. Keep teaching at every opportunity. Sunday School or youth group, the kids come for the Bible lesson. |

I got a lot of ideas from other website's myself, but I never found a curriculum or a Sunday School lesson that was just what I wanted so I always wrote my own. The kids seemed to like them. After awhile they would prefer to skip my lame games, just sit down and get into the lesson. Sweet. The links and products featured on the site are all things I use in the Junior High Ministry. Buying these items thru the links provides our ministry with a small commission and offers you the lowest price and a safe source to get it from. You'll find a better book selection and lower prices than any bookstore, specifically tailored to your interests. Churches around the globe are experiencing a sharp lack of volunteer Sunday School teachers. It does require a high degree of commitment and can also be a little scary for a new volunteer to contemplate being in charge of a group of junior high age kids for more than an hour. My greatest fear in the beginning was, "What if my brain freezes up in the middle of a lesson, I lose my train of thought?" So every Sunday I came in with a Sunday School lesson plan guaranteed to keep me on track. Click here to discover how these lesson plans can help you too. |

Oh boy! Summer. Here we go! |

For those of us in the Northern hemisphere it's becoming summer. The end of the school year, longer days, warmer temperatures. This initiates some changes and creates opportunities in the way we do youth ministry. Think of summer not as an ending of this school year but as the beginning of the new year. I'm sure your head is filled with opportunities for the kids now that the weather is nice.The schedule can get packed fast. However, when you are planning, make sure you add some time for your own spiritual renewal. While some churches and leaders recommend taking the summer off from any Sunday School or youth activities I disagree. Summer has always been a time of growth. Stopping your ministry will mean restarting from ground zero next fall. Hopefully, you have developed many volunteer leaders who are sharing the responsibilities of the ministry so it's OK for you to take some days off (make sure they do too). Plan a few spiritual retreats for yourself. My favorite activity is camping. I go by myself to a favorite spot. Two nights is enough for me. That allows one whole day for prayer, reflection, and relaxation. The prayers are frequently "listening" prayers. The hikes, fishing, reading, napping are things I do for refreshment feeling that God is doing them with me. It's great to be surrounded by things God created. My wife, however, usually has her spiritual retreats in a condo she gets through a travel club for just $99.00 a week (e-mail me and I will refer you to this club). That's cheaper than camping.. It gets her away from the distractions of home. She also feels safer than being in the wilderness. Plus, it gives her the opportunity to go in bad weather or the winter. She takes her favorite music, devotionals, and easy food. She goes for a week at a time, comes home really refreshed. Whatever you can do plan to do it before a hectic schedule crowds it out.
