| American Idol, Tasha Layton and Worship Pastors |

I had a chance to ask Tasha Layton, worship pastor from California, a few questions about what was her decision in deciding to try out for American Idol. I believe God gives each one of us a platform to which we can share who God is in our lives. Some people have a platform that can reach many and some have a platform that reaches a few. However, neither one is less important. Sometimes God stretches us and gives us more of an influence through opportunities and circumstances that comes our way. Tasha in her obedience to follow God’s leading was giving this opportunity, here are her thoughts. |

Youth Ministry Tip #5: Don’t do ministry tasks that you can get leaders/volunteer’s to do. Invest your time in growing your volunteers. So many times in ministry we think it is not only easier but more effective if we do tasks ourselves. We know it takes time to teach someone to do something [...] |

We want a discussion about what creative ways you are teaching the Christmas message but still remaining biblically faithful. It is so hard for youth pastors to stay fresh for students yet make sure we don’t water down the significance of the Christmas message. Please leave your thoughts and ideas on what you will be teaching during the Christmas Season. Any catchy and relevant titles would be fun too!

| Grace & Truth in Ministry |

I was watching a DVD with David Nasser teaching. He made a statement that hit me like crazy. It was about Grace and Truth. He was discussing the story of a girl who was trying to show others that Christianity is not about Condemning people but about loving them. He made this statment, "If we only come at people with Truth then we can be too legalistic, and if we come at people with only Grace we can come off as too liberal. We need to find that balance of Grace and Truth."
Think on that and begin applying it in your converstations in ministry with your students and your leaders. |
