Dealing With Public Display of Affection in Youth Ministry - PDA Problems

Send us Fan MailAre you looking to grow the size and health of your youth ministry? Check outGrowYourYouthMinistry.com ***** Have you ever found yourself in the middle of a midweek youth group program, trying to focus on the announcements or message, only to be sidetracked by a pair of teenagers cuddling in the corner? It’s a situation many church leaders know all too well, and it's the heart of our latest episode where we grapple with the challenge of public displays of affection (PDA) in youth ministry.  In this episode, we navigate the complex dance of spirituality and romance in adolescence by setting a balance of policy & situational wisdom.  As youth pastors, we want to come along side our student's growth journey and aid their developmental stages while prioritizing their faith.  Listen in as we tackle the awkward but necessary conversations about PDA, striving to guide our youth with patience and understanding, all without compromising the space that student ministry is meant to be. =======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/ministrycoach=======You may also enjoy these episodes:(#012) Creating a Safe Ministry - 3 Areas to Focus On!=======🔄 CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA 📱:Ministry Coach Podcast:Website: http://www.kristenlascola.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MinistryCoach/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ministrycoachpodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ministrycoachpodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ministrycoachpodcastKristen Lascola:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/klascola/Jeffrey Lascola:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grandmasterbengal/=======Audio Equipment:Microphoneshttps://amzn.to/3eWUWrkDigital Recorderhttps://amzn.to/3eXmvkj*This episode is not sponsored.
