What Student Leader Resources Do You Use?
We have a monthly Youth Pastors lunch and someone posed this question to the group. I was stumped and embarrassed because I don't use ANY persay. I do leadership training for my volunteers but nothing for the students.
He on the other hand has a Summer Intern program for middle and high school students grooming them as Christian leaders.
He and I are meeting tomorrow to discuss further but I wanted to pose the question to this community: Do you do any student leadership? If so what resources, do you use?

I'm thinking through this right now as well. My method has been trying to share the responsibilities of the ministry with youth, trying to match up their gifts with something that needs to happen. This has worked well, in that some youth don't every follow through with anything, and some do extremely well with certain things. |

We try to develop our teens by getting them involved in ministry. I don't do any set intern plans, but we get the teen to work alongside an adult in an area they choose. For example, we have teens who are learning to lead Sunday school classes by partnering with the existing teacher, and slowly take on more responsibility. This has the benefit in helping the teens feel part of the whole church, and helps the adults to see things from a teen's perspective. |
