I’m so excited to announce the launch of my friend, Tim Schmoyer’s, new ministry resouce site: MinistryQuestions.com.  Tim is the youth leader behind LifeinStudentMinistry.com and the OnlineMissionsTrip.com.  The site officially launched this evening and will feature the ability for youth workers to ask and answer questions (via text, audio, or video), interact in the advice/debate section, and get plugged into ministry mentoring relationships.  What a resource!  Here’s a quick overview video from Tim himself…

Stay updated by going to the site and subscribing to the RSS feeds or by following @MinistryQandA on Twitter.

Once signed up, parents will receive a daily reminder via e-mail to pray over their teens in various areas. Here’s the prayers that were sent out this week…

Students Say the Darndest Things

There were a few particularly funny quotes from the site “Students Say the Darndest Things” this week…

  • “What’s the difference between a youth minister and a large pizza? A pizza can feed a family.”
    Submitted by Kyle Evans.
  • “You have a gender neutral baby?”
    …we didn’t find out the sex of our baby during the ultrasound.
    Submitted by Chris Modrzejewski.
  • “I’m off duty. I can hug girls now. For prolonged amounts of time.”
    From a student ministry intern. No…no, you can’t.
