Well, I told everyone in my previous blog that I was lost. I really was! Frightening to say the least. However, I am slowly regaining my bearings; bearings in a lost world as well.
I just returned from a great Thanksgiving weekend. Not much to comment on, it was just great. Got a lot of rest and a chance to look over some things.
During this past week, I was blessed to go the National Youth Workers Convention, a great event put on by Youth-specialties. I had a great time. It gave me pause to think about a lot of things. Especially when Mark Ostreicher put into words for me something I knew all along. “Youth ministry isn’t working.” At least not the way it ought too.
I heard many dedicated workers restate the same thing in conversations all around. “It just isn’t working.”
Okay, now what do we do next. I will be thinking and praying about this and get back with you. Remember, I am still working my way back home.
See you in a few days.
Greg
