"Are we, in our efforts to avoid serving up boredom, inadvertently training kids to be passive consumers of well-marketed religious experiences rather than active pursuers of the untamed God of the universe? ...Maybe the healthiest thing we can do to equip young people with durable faith is to create more boring ministries. --Mark DeVries, Group, July/August 2012

How Much Can You Disagree Theologically With Your Church and Still Work There?
"Unfortunately, the topic usually comes up only after a youth pastor is already at a job at a church, either because the leadership of the church changes or because the youth pastor fails to ask some important questions regarding the views of the church he's about to serve at. In addition, I don't think it's all that uncommon for a young youth pastor to take a position at a church and only later discover that he holds some theological views that differ from the leadership of the church."

Who is Brenda?
Brenda is a brave one. She stutters yet is a national speaker. She loves teaching so much she’s been a substitute teacher for over 20 years. She’s brave enough to enter any classroom at a middle school. She also simply loves teaching groups, whether they are teens or adults. You could say she was created for this, stuttering and all. She has been in youth ministry for 34 years and has no plans to “grow up” and be a real pastor. She bravely loves teenagers, especially that middle school age. She has served in her church, New Covenant Fellowship of Manassas, Virginia, since 1990 and they will probably bury her there.
