Soul care -- Building a team -- Relationships with kids -- Communicating truth -- Dealing with parents -- Common programming mistakes -- Dealing with authorities -- Money matters -- The moral minefield -- Safety issues -- Getting better.
Abstract: Everyone makes mistakes. But why make the same ones that other youth workers have already learned tough lessons through? Whether you're a youth ministry volunteer or you've just stepped into a full-time youth ministry position, chances are that you don't know everything...not yet anyway. Here you'll find wisdom from seasoned veterans who have "been there and done that" so you can avoid the pitfalls they've found themselves facing. With true stories from real youth workers, you'll get the truth that you just don't learn in your seminary classes or volunteer training meetings. With thought-provoking questions, relevant Scripture, and practical applications, you'll learn from some of the commmon, but avoidable, blunders of youth ministry veterans such as: soul care slip-ups, team building terrors, relationship regrets, parent problems (or is it problem parents?!), programming pitfalls, budget blunders, moral minefields, authority ailments, and crisis-control choas.
