Best Practices for Communicating with Students in Youth Ministry

Send us Fan MailCommunication is half (if not more) of the battle in youth ministry.  Have you ever had a poorly attended event?  Have you ever gotten 150 phone calls, emails and texts the day of a youth group event from parents and students wanting to know the details?  Have you ever had someone say, "I had no idea about this" when it comes to the specifics of a program you are putting on?  It could be because your lines of communication are broken.  In this episode, we take a look at a bunch of different ways you can communicate with your students to make sure that they are aware of any upcoming student ministry event, program or deadline.  You will always be better off over-communicating and doing so well in advance as opposed to "winging it" last minute.  Will there still be some people that reach out and say they didn't know anything about it?  Sure, but it shouldn't be a result of you not pushing the info to them often and from multiple sources.  Also, make sure you check out the episode we did on communication between youth pastor and parents...link below!We love hearing from you all and we do our best to provide powerful and insightful youth ministry content on a weekly basis to be that coach and mentor you may not have, but desperately need.If you have an episode idea, please E-Mail us at [email protected]!If you have it on your heart to support this ministry, please consider going to our Patreon page at: www.patreon.com/ministrycoachYou may also enjoy these episodes:(#047) Youth Pastors and Parents - Best Communication Tipshttps://www.buzzsprout.com/974710/episodes/8243834(#115) 6 Easy Ways to Connect With Your Students Outside of Youth Ministryhttps://www.buzzsprout.com/974710/episodes/11264859==================🔄 CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA 📱:Kristen Lascola:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/klascola/Twitter: https://twitter.com/kristenlascola?lang=enJeffrey Lascola:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grandmasterbengal/==================Audio Equipment:Microphoneshttps://amzn.to/3eWUWrkDigital Recorderhttps://amzn.to/3eXmvkjPop Filtershttps://amzn.to/2ApEz7MMic Standshttps://amzn.to/2Zrwat2Shock Mountshttps://amzn.to/2AvjhWwXLR Cableshttps://amzn.to/2VI4uiy*This episode is not sponsored.
