		<description>We just finished a series on the armor of God called six round knockout. We made our stage into a boxing ring with a punching bag hanging from the ceiling. We used the rocky videos to be our openers. We even made a count
down to go along with the theme using eye of the tiger music. Here is a link to that countdown feel free to use it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWpPU3NYjO0</description>

		<description>We just did an identity in Christ series called &quot;RPG: Real Personal God&quot; it was fun to use elements of role-playing games and rocket propelled grenades (we&#039;re situated next to a marine base, so many of our students were more familiar with that than the roleplaying games) to illustrate who God is, who we are in response, and what it looks like when that relationship with our real God is restored.</description>

		<description>JG- I know that and I know that&#039;s where you come from but I know too many leaders who look for a cool theme or build an entire series on an illustration and then attach some verses. I&#039;m not one of those grumpy frumpy anti-everything kinds of guys, I just feel like one reason youth leaders are not seen as &quot;real pastors&quot; is because their speaking/preaching/teaching is weak. Often we are seen as needing a fancy title or catchy name or crazxy media to make up for that weakness. There was a Collide article which talked about this type of thing where John Piper mentioned he wasn&#039;t so big on media illustrations mostly because he felt they were used to cover up weak teaching. 

So we&#039;re on the same page I think. And my students loved the PDYM Student Leadership Conference.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t want to dampen the creativity but is this working backwards? Coming up with a cool name for a series and then figuring out what it should be on? Why not start with Scripture then get the fancy name? Maybe I&#039;m just wierd or totally out of touch with what students really want.</description>
