Met a youth worker Chris from Authentic Youth at the Fantastical Conference – we were talking about the blog and he said he loved the idea a while back about the message outline hooks – and brought me one of theirs, too! Taffy (our student worship pastor at Saddleback) and I have had a blast meeting so many great youth workers this week. How cool!

Congrats to Jeff Stapleton, random winner of the contest this week for 2 tickets to the Simply Youth Ministry Conference in Chicago this March. Get to the Windy City for some youth worker training with 3,000 of your closest friends, too!

I’m a youth minister just beginning my third year in a small East Texas town. The resources and support from SYM (newsletters/products/podcasts) have been huge in my development as both a teacher and a leader. To learn and worship with other youth ministers is a tremendous encouragement, and something I look forward to. I hope to make it to the SYM conference one way or another…and get the chance to sit in on an epic live podcast. Thanks for all you do Josh!
