WRITING, WRITING, WRITING

Lately I've been doing a lot of writing. I have 2 bible studies I've been working on till the wee hours of the morning this week and a seminary project that is due.

Two other writings have recently posted to Simply's site. The first is a series of Bible Studies I've taught twice in my own youth ministry. It's really about developing a mentoring mindset- both in you and in your relationships around you. I think this study is the one that I've written so far that I'm most excited about.

It's called "Coach Me"


I'm also in the process of planning our 08/09 school year and in the midst of that, I wrote a little article that posted here. If you're a youth pastor, you might find a idea or two worth stealing. Which by the way, if you have an idea or two I can steal, hook a brother up!

(Side note, the editor made a correction on this one that kinda bugs me. I have these two types of messages series I think through when planning my teaching calendar. One I call a "Felt Need" and the other I call a "Spirit Lead". There's a play on words there that is a memory tool- among other things. Anyway, the editor changed it to "Spirit Led" which did two things. #1. It took away the parallel language rhyme. #2. It makes it sound like the "felt need" stuff I did on my own, the "Spirit Led" stuff is what God wanted me to do. It's the first time that I've re-read the article after it was edited and then posted and went, "Ugh.... I don't like that change.")
