The life of a Youth Pastor really begins to change in late Spring. Summers are a great time to be a Youth Pastor. We go on week long trips, there is no school pressure and God usually really shows up and does some amazing things.
In late Spring, us Youth Pastors are busy getting the spaces we reserved filled with kids, getting paperwork returned, recruiting leaders and just being very busy. This year was no different, but with the added deal of trying to see what the big thing was for us.
We went to our summer camp called Centrifuge in late June. In the weeks leading up to this trip, I sensed that God was going to speak through the youth to tell us what the big thing for us was. I liked that idea and told the youth a few time what I was feeling.
While at Centrifuge, we talked about this big thing with the whole group and everyone seemed to be kind of excited about what might happen. I really had no idea what to do next, but I though we could at least talk about some ideas we might have for the big thing. We spent a little time in prayer and simply had kids talk about things they thought might be the thing. Cara wrote down everything. Here is what it looked like:
I can't find it right now, it will be here soon.
When it was done, I really did not sense a consensus, but told the kids I would send them a copy of this list when were back home and they should keep praying.
Now I can see it, then we could not. Look at item number one.
