Offering Students Rest in Your Youth Ministry
The longer I’ve spent in youth ministry, though, the more I’ve also seen that students are increasingly in need of healthy teaching and practices in the area of rest. Here are a few ways youth workers can teach students what the Bible says about rest while developing ministry practices that reflect that message.
Starting With Rest
Resting before we work echoes the truth that the Gospel begins with grace, not effort. When we begin with rest, we are able to minister out of the abundance of God’s grace instead of a cup dry from being stretched thin.
