What makes a good Youth Group - according to Teens

According to my scripture class...
(A group of upper middle class 15 year old girls.)

A good youthgroup is:

  • Bible Based - talk, small groups and games - all with the same biblical focus
  • Relational - they don't just want leaders that say 'Pray and read your bible' they want leaders that are interested in their troubles and can offer practical advice and love.
  • made up of Honest, God fearing leaders
  • a place that makes them feel safe, comfortable and not-judged.
  • Provides food
So to all you youth leaders out there - be living examples of God followers. Always be willing to answer questions and be honest that you don't know everything. Teens want you to be real with them, so see you as you are.

There is nothing better than bringing other to God but to do this we must first be with God.

Grace and Peace!
