TLH067: Youth Ministry When Your Church Doesn’t Like Teenagers

Youth Ministry for the Longer Haul Podcast

Not everyone loves teenagers. Wait, what??? As youth ministers, it's hard for us to understand how some adults don't like teens. If you happen to be serving in a church who loves teenagers, you know the impact that can have on a student's life. If you happen to be in a church where some or maybe even a lot of adults seem to not like teenagers, you know how hard youth ministry can be. It's like you can't get any traction in your ministry. Hopefully we can help. In this episode, we spend some time-sharing ideas on how to make adults LOVE students. We're not making any promises, because we know that some adults can be pretty grouchy towards kids. We do think though, that there are some great tips in this episode that can help you turn the corner if your church is struggling with this.
