The largest statistic on youth ministry in a study done concluded with this advice to youth workers: persevere.
- Sometimes it’s important just to stay.

Two key relationships to longevity in ministry:

The first is spouse
The second is boss

How can you maintain longevity? You have to stay healthy spiritually and physically.

The five main challenges in longevity have to do with time:

Too busy for personal devotional time
Job demands more
Emotional strain
Regret not spending time with youth who’ve stopped coming
Too little time for themselves

Questions to think about:

How are you doing?
Are you spending time with God?
Are you praying?
Are you loving your family with time and energy?
Are you loving your spouse?
Are you honoring your ministry?
Are you a good steward with this ministry?
