In my Youth Pastor days, we worked through something called Trader Projects. It was part of our High School Discipleship series. The students set up official officers (President, Vice Pres., Secretary & Treasurer), and chose the type of ministry, or service that they endeavour to invest in.
We entered into week two of our Trader projects this past Sunday night. For those of you who aren’t in the loop on what I’m actually talking about; I suggest you check my previous post based on Surrender Self before reading any further.
Last night, we completed our series titled “Surrender” by Francis Chan. I highly suggest the series to any youth group. It was a fantastic model for addressing the current struggles of teens in today’s culture. Furthermore, I believe it has empowered our students to reach new heights with how their faith is played out in day-to-day life.
