Tonight was the restart of our small groups after our winter break for Encounter High School Ministry. I had a great night with my guys and really enjoyed reconnecting with them. While we’re still a long way from perfect and even have a “let’s revamp some stuff” meeting on Sunday, there is some stuff that I’m learning that is worth sharing.
Here’s a video that shows 4 small things that seem to be working for us. It was recorded at Youth Specialties in San Diego this last fall.
If you’re interested in the books I mentioned at the end, check out this blog post called “pick a numba” where I outline this principle and link to some resources.
If you’re interested in the small group talk sheets, check out these links. They deviate from the style we use when teaching a series. But each of these should be pretty easy to use and still follow a simple format that requires little to no prep on the part of the leader.
- here’s one on a new year’s resolution tied to 1 Cor 16:14
- here’s one on dealing with discouragement.
- a set of 5 more I mentioned in the video above download youth ministry soon.
