SEASONAL IDEA

    Hand's-On Service Ideas for Youth Groups
    Authors - Steve Case & Fred Cornforth
    Publisher - Group Publishing
    Price - $12.99

    If we want our youth to grow in their walk with Christ, we need to be actively and regularly teaching them how to serve because youth who learn to serve are much more likely to develop the positive "habit" of being involved in their church and community the rest of their lives.  So, one of the most important things we can do for our youth is to help them learn to serve God for His glory . . . this resource is an excellent tool to help youth leaders do just that!

  • how to work with the gifts God has given your youth

    I found this book to be an excellent tool for helping youth learn to serve.  The information in the beginning of the book will help leaders be more prepared to lead youth in service and the 102 ideas are terrific!  I especially like the Birthday Party Project and the Office Flower Blitz!  I highly recommend this book for all youth groups.  Extremely well done Steve, Fred and Group!
