Is Anyone Watching? (Aug 28, 2008 at 7:43 PM) - Use this for yourself or your teens.
How is God Working in Your Life and Ministry? (Apr 17, 2008 at 8:23 PM) - Do you feel as though God is working in your life and your ministry? Do you feel as though God is working in the lives of your teens? God is so awesome, turn Him loose and let Him work.
How Am I Really Doing? (Feb 14, 2008 at 9:07 PM) - The process you are about to go through will take time and thought. However, it is our belief that you will benefit greatly if you take it seriously and focus on your teens and how you are ministering to them as you work through each area.
Guidelines from God (Jan 29, 2008 at 9:43 PM) - Do you feel as though you are becoming spiritually stagnant? Have you ever thought how nice it would be if God would just give you a short set of guidelines to help get you back on track?
It's a New Year! (Dec 19, 2007 at 6:17 AM) - One of the great things about the New Year is that it gives us the opportunity to make changes in ourselves, families and ministries. We all know that we could make changes anytime but the New Year just seems the right time so let’s take full advantage of it.
Dawn 'til Dusk (Nov 29, 2007 at 9:10 PM) - As we close out 2007 we need to look back and see how we as youth workers and our ministries have grown spiritually. We will look at different areas of our lives and ministries and try to pinpoint our growth.
Let's Get Practical (Oct 16, 2007 at 9:00 PM) - Today’s D2 is one that is so practical that you might think I don’t even need to deal with this. Just hang with us, it may be practical and seem elementary but the areas we will cover are areas that are needed in all youth ministries.
Living and Loving Life (Jul 12, 2007 at 7:53 PM) - Do you know what the Bible says is most important in the life of a Christian? Do you think its how much money we make or how many material possessions we posses?
Multiply Yourself (May 4, 2007 at 3:12 AM) - It has been said by youth ministers for years, “I really need to multiply my ministry.” It has also been said that the best way to multiply your ministry is to begin by multiplying yourself.
GOD, I WANT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION (Apr 25, 2007 at 5:54 AM) - At some point in time in my ministry I have wanted to ask God a few questions. Why did Pete have to die with aids? Why did Janet leave the church after we worked so hard to lead her to you? Why did that car crash have to claim Oney’s life? Why are people hungry in our city? Why? Why? Why?
Just a Thought (Mar 14, 2007 at 5:08 AM) - I was recently asked by one of my student’s if I would answer a few questions for Bible class credit at her school? I agreed and so the process began. As I read through the questions my first thoughts were, “this is going to be a piece of cake” or “I think I can do this pretty quick.”
What Does the Lord Require of You? (Feb 21, 2007 at 5:48 AM) - If we are going to be serious about youth ministry we must ask ourselves, “What does the Lord require of me?”
The Choice is Yours (Jan 24, 2007 at 7:14 AM) - Just like any other profession, as youth ministers we make a lot of important choices. We decide what needs to be taught from one quarter to the next. We decide which events will help our group grow closer to God and follow the example of His Son. We also make decisions that will make an impact on our lives as youth ministers.
How's Your Knee-Mail? (Dec 26, 2006 at 4:33 PM) - How is your prayer life? Are you growing closer to God through prayer? Is your youth group growing closer to God through prayer? If not, what can you do to change things? What can you do to improve your relationship with God?

Taking Care of the Needy (Dec 24, 2006 at 1:27 PM) - What are you and your youth group doing to help the needy? There has never been a time when God was not caring for the needy. From the beginning He has had a great desire for us as Christians to take care of those less fortunate that we are.
Personal Responsibility (Dec 24, 2006 at 1:23 PM) - Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles, wrote to the Romans, “For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem; they were pleased to do it, and indeed they are in debt to them, for if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings” (Romans 15:26-27).
