The most important thing you can do is invest in adult volunteers!

• Volunteers are incredibly valuable to every youth ministry.

Two commitments

• Your commitment to Jesus. Jesus is the center of your work.

  • Students need to see that Jesus is real in your life, more than just on Sundays.

  • Do you want to grow up in Jesus or grow old in Jesus?

    • How can we do this?

      • Be in the Word.
      • Pray.
      • Seek positive accountability and have them speak wisdom in your life.
      • Love the church.
      • Be teachable.

• Your commitment to your family.

  • Give it priority. By doing this, we honor God.

    • How can we do this?

      • Part of your job is to be an ally to parents; parents will always have a bigger impact on the students than the youth worker.
      • Consider the impact your ministry has on families.
      • Money.
