Youthworker Journal Article: Managing the God-High

The phrase "God-high" didn't exist when I was in a high school youth group, though the concept was there for sure. Students talk about it now quite a bit. Is it good or bad? Discussed here.

Youthworker Journal Article: Grace for the "Older Brother"

It's oten easy for pastors to show grace to the "younger brother" types as depicted in Jesus' story in Luke 15. It's sometimes harder to show that same grace to the "older brother." Discussed here. 

Youthworker Journal Article: Managing Bedtimes

Very practical stuff in this one. Hope it's helpful to some sleep-deprived retreat-leading youth workers!

My latest Youthworker Journal article: Are you a Youth Ministry Lifer?

This is my latest article, from Youthworker Journal's March/April edition: is youth ministry a stepping stone to adult ministry? Is that a bad thing?

My latest Youthworker Journal article, regarding Fraggle Rock and Youth Ministry

This one didn't make it into the print edition (it was inadvertently left out, even though it was listed in the Table of Contents) and it's one I'm pretty proud of. If you don't know what Fraggle Rock is, do some YouTubeing. Doozers are the best.
