When looking for discipleship materials for youth you may not know exactly what to look for. While it all comes down to your vision for your discipleship ministry and your students’ needs, there are two big things that you want to look for. First of all you want to look for a bible study. A large part of discipleship is your students getting into the word so, as we have said in prior posts, you want to find resources that help your students do this very thing. The second thing that you want to look for is time. This might be the most important discipleship material that you ever have. This is because true discipleship takes time and investment and so if you are going to truly invest in your students you must carve time out of your schedule to pour into their lives and be willing to make the investments necessary to help them grow in their faith and become life changers.
Youth discipleship curriculum is simply a resources to help you disciple your students. It is all about equipping you with resources to help you disciple your students. I share this because it may seem like a fancy or complicated idea but this is simply what it is. We all know we need to disciple our students but often we are unsure of how to go about it. While there are many aspects a big to discipleship a big part of it is getting your students into the word. But more than that, the bigger goal is to help them get into the word in such a way that they learn how to get into the word for themselves so that they can in turn disciple others. You want to keep this in mind as you search for the right curriculum for you. You do not want to just merely find a normal bible study. You want something deeper that trains your students how to teach themselves and in turn go out and teach others.
When planning out a disciple now weekend one of the most important and sometimes stressful decisions you have to make is what Disciple Now curriculum to use. There are certainly a lot of choices out there, and of course you want to choose something that will allow students to get the full impact out of the weekend possible. Here are a few things that may help guide you in your process of choosing a Disciple Now Curriculum. 1. Keep your students in mind: Often times when choosing Disciple Now Curriculum we look for the hottest trend or what we enjoy. But remember, this is not for us it is for our students. So look for something that covers things that are relevant to your students, and things that are pressing to them. 2. Think about your whole group: Many times when planning things for your student ministries, or picking out resources for our student ministry, we think about one niche of students. When picking out Disciple Now Curriculum we need to be careful to ensure we pick out something that can reach the broad scope of students who may be in our ministry. Next you need to sell your event to your leaders. You need to cast a vision
for what your expectations are for them and for what your goals are for the event. It cannot be guaranteed everything will happen as you hoped but you increase your chances of this happening if you take the time to sell your leaders on what you hope to see happen throughout the weekend. Finally you need to sell the event to your church. D Now is a big undertaking and you need a lot of help to pull it off. Therefore you need to get your whole church involved. There is an added benefit here though. Most student ministries are isolated from the rest of the church. While this is usually acceptable for everyone it poses a problem. Your students are isolated from people who can be great role models for them. This event gives you a chance to break that trend and build a bridge between the adults in your church and the students in your ministry. Being a salesman may be unnatural for many of us, and that actually may be a good thing. But there are times where playing this role is necessary and this event is one of those times. If you want your weekend to be all you hoped it would be and all that God intends for it to be than get out there and sell the weekend to everyone who needs to have it sold to. Those few moments of our time will reap incredible benefits in the long run. |
