Ah, middle school students…
They’re full of energy, goofy, often smell bad, and are tons of fun. I think most of us are just glad to have survived middle school and are glad we never have to go back and relive those “glory days.”
What do we do with Middle School students in our youth ministries though, and how can we make sure they are really getting our best?
In this episode we talk all about what youth ministry to middle school students looks like. Most of all, Chris brings his years of experience to the microphone and pours out tons of wisdom about what makes the middle school years challenging to work with as well as the opportunities that they present.
This episode is a must listen for all who work with middle school students.
