12 Things I’ve Learned In Youth & Young-Adults Ministry:

• Your biggest strength is the personalized time you give each individual. 
• You can’t meet everyone’s needs, but you can meet them for lunch or coffee. 
• The quality of your preaching isn’t as important as the way you present yourself on a daily basis. 
• Your biggest measure of success is the daily transformation you see in each individual. 
• Honesty and transparency are key in gaining someone’s trust.
• You can’t fake it. They’ll call your bluff. 
• Don’t expect anyone to do anything you haven’t or won’t do yourself. 
• A pizza party will never mean more than a personalized letter or phone call. 
• The second you stop learning is the second you should probably stop leading. 
• Being relevant does not meaning watering down The Gospel. 
• They don’t need someone to tell them how to do life. They need someone willing to do life with them. 
• You will never be perfect. So don’t expect them to be either.

I still have much to learn, and I pray that God will continue opening doors for me. But as for the last five years, these are the twelve things that I have realized the most.
