Book Mentioned in this Episode: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni *** Feeling spent in your youth ministry role? Wondering if it's time to call it quits as a youth pastor or stay the course? Today's episode addresses those types questions as we traverse the complicated landscape of student ministry. We'll unpack the three major factors that could be contributing to your restlessness - the potential seasonality of the challenges you're facing, the ever-changing dynamics of the ministry and your fluctuating levels of personal motivation. We’ll share our insights on how these problems can be transient and how your motivation can bounce back.

We also do a deep dive into your potential to serve as a catalyst for change in your church, by being a part of the solution rather than just pointing out the problems. We'll introduce you to the concept of "The Essentials," - a unique practice to recognize successes, pinpoint areas of improvement, and strategize for the future. To wrap things up, we’ll discuss the power of perseverance in the face of adversity, with a little help from the story of Elisha in 2 Kings 13:18.

We love hearing from you all and we do our best to provide powerful and insightful youth ministry content on a weekly basis to be that coach and mentor you may not have, but desperately need.
