Soon I'll be in the DC area. Northern Virginia to be exact to be with the good people of St. Matthew's. I'll be leading a Parent's Night Out. I'll be talking about the new way of doing youth ministry the church has been working on for about 9 months. It's an exciting group of people leading the ministry there and it is always good to spend time with them.
On of the things I'll be talking about is "What every Youth Pastor wishes Parent's understood." I've put the finishing touches on my time with them this morning.
I'm curious..
If you are a youth worker or pastor, what do you wish parents understood?
I wish the concept of a family ministry approach was a shared value and not just the youth pastor beating that drum. If it ever was a true partnership in humility as both sides discerned what was the best way to serve and help each other, it would be a beautiful thing.
