Welcome to YouthChurch.com!

Our goal is to make this a safe place to collaborate with other youth leaders...sort of a digital "Third Place" where ideas and insights are batted around freely and generously. Of course, we know that everyone will approach this community differently. But whatever level of involvement you choose is cool. All we ask is that you help us maintain an environment that's fun, supportive and responsive to the needs and interests of others.

K.I.S.S.

I heard someone say to me one time "Keep It Simple Stupid"! I can't help but wonder if God is sitting in heaven wanting to say the same thing to us. We have over complicated this being a Christian thing. As believers we get rapped up in this world of "christian talk" and speak in terms and phrases that we only use on Sundays, you know what I mean! We quickly forget where we came from...also we kind of put a doormat at the door and say you have to clean up your life before we let you in. This is… Continue

Are you in relationship with God or with the church?

I remember when I started out in youth ministry, I was on fire for God. We would stay up all night having prayer meetings and never missed a time to worship or hear teaching on the word. I remember a few buddies and myself telling people we were "Jesus Freaks", yep "Jesus Freaks". That was around the time DC Talk had released that song.

REV GEN 08 IS DONE, REV GEN 09 HERE I COME!

Who's heard of revelation generation? It's an intense festival where many mainstream artists are brought and share their faith and rock out. Artists like Leeland, Kutless, Chris Tomlin, The Devil Wears Prada, Skillet, As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red and more go and play there on 3 stages!

Hopefully I get to go. I would love to but at the hardcore stage poeple go crazy and start throwing soda cans, posters, "no moshing zone" signs all over the place.
