Helping Students Focus on a Campus Missions Strategy |
The following is an article written by Ben Birdsong, First Priority Greater Birmingham Campus Coach.
You don't need to be told that school consumes the time and lives of students. But, it's important to be reminded that each week your students constantly interact with their peers, many of whom do not know what it means to have a life-transforming relationship with Jesus Christ.
God has placed your students strategically in the high schools and middle schools of your community. What if you could help your students see their time in class as less of a drudgery and more of a divine appointment?
This transformation of attitude is what a campus missions focus is about. What if you took at least one youth ministry gathering a year to not only remind students that God could use them to change their school for Christ, but to really equip and challenge them to do so?
To read about some important concepts to remember as you consider what it looks like to have a "campus missions" focus, and for more from Ben on this topic, please click here.

See You at the Pole is Wednesday, Sept. 28, 2011
| |
On the fourth Wednesday in September tens of thousands of students in our area and millions world-wide will participate in the 21st annual See You at the Pole™ (SYATP). Before school, students will join together at their school's flagpole to pray for their friends, families, teachers, school, city, state and nation to God. SYATP is a student-initiated, student-organized and student-led event.
