Jeff Suos led a great conversation with a handful of small church youth workers and pastors to celebrate what is working, talk through what isn’t, and connect on common passions and visions for anyone working in a small church ministry setting. Check out the video recap below:

As a follow up to this great conversation, we are fortunate to have an incredible team of YS Blog Authors who have written posts with small church ministry settings in mind. Here are a handful of my favorites:

• 6 Tips for Planning Youth Group Night
• Small Church Ministry in a Megachurch World
• 5 Tips for Training Volunteers When You Lack Budget
• Planning Intergenerational Mission Trips
• Time Management Tricks
