Remember fasting doesn’t HAVE to involve food. There are so many other, creative, and likely more relevant ways to encourage young people to practice this particular spiritual discipline.
Let’s be mindful and careful with those sweet little babies we’re taking care of. ❤️ (2/2)

Hey #youthmin #kidmin friends, a gentle reminder for Lent, from your @stuffyoucanuse pals.
Please be careful with the language you use around FASTING.
Keep in mind adolescents are extremely susceptible to disordered eating & many are experiencing food insecurity at home. (1/2)

Someone asked me if I mind that our smaller church keeps getting copied by larger churches. The answer is no. I don’t mind. It says something about who we are. Iterate away. Borrow what you need. If we think church is about owning everything then we’ve missed something major. 🤍 – at Lakeland, FL

I’ll let you draw your own conclusions from this story. 😂
Within hours, a women-only Facebook group organized a simple system for sharing codes to the Grow Games app. SO POLITE. SO CALM. Everyone has codes!
EVERYONE ELSE:

When someone who was curious about the commotion over at @stuffyoucanuse (because NEW & FREE games app) asked, “what are codes for?” @karliloving replied that they are for @PopeyesChicken Then the internet broke once and for all. 2020 is complete. #youthministry #NowPlaying – at Lakeland, FL

Can I just say “1 minute sermons” from @stuffyoucanuse are SO HELPFUL during this season.
We have been able to pull ideas and adapt them to make short quick vids for our students that actually helps them watch the whole thing.
Like so good. Thank you!

Hey youth pastors, I'm curious. Before beginning as a pastor, how much education or training did you get in areas like:
Grief counseling?
General counseling?
Trauma-informed care?
Concepts like Ring Theory to help with pastoral care?
Lots? Some? None?

Making your #youthministry more inclusive isn’t about being politically correct or increasing attendance. It’s about protecting real human lives, righting wrongs, and showing a generation of teenagers a new way forward. Thank you @Hedreich for teaching us. ymanswers.com
