“It happens predominantly to schoolteachers and youth ministry leaders. I don’t even know if there’s a word for it, but it’s that little lump they feel in the back of their throat triggered at the instant when they flip the calendar to August and suddenly feel the looming pressure as if a deadline is rapidly approaching like a college term paper.”
Check out this great article by Jonathan McKee, posted on the Youth Specialities website. McKee gives youth leaders some practical advice on how to gear up for the start of youth group in the fall. Whether you’ve been in ministry for 20 years or are just starting out, this might just help get some ideas flowing. Happy Monday, everyone!
