I posted on Kurt winning the Youth Pastor of the Universe award earlier today. Just now he’s posted some great thoughts on the award, that if you’re interested might be cool to read. Here’s a clip, head to his blog for the rest, and bookmark him while you’re there!

Church phone rings and is answered by receptionist who happens to know me better than Fields…

TCR: “Hello, can you please give us the name of your youth pastor?”

Church receptionist who happens to know me better than Fields: “Uh, Kurt Johnston?”

TCR: “Thank you.”

And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how I have become America’s Top Youth Pastor two years in a row.
