This Changes Everything! Jesus Encounters That Transform Lives: 4-Week Junior High Small Group Video Curriculum

Monahan, Chad

Luzadder, John

Life-shaping discipleship isn’t a random event. It’s an intentional adventure, and teenagers need someone who’s walking with them on the journey and helping them grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ. Jesus modeled this for us through relationship with his closest disciples. He spent time with them, shared life with them, taught them to obey, shared experiences with them, gave them direction, and promised to be with them. This is what we are called to as youth workers—the model for us to follow. The Skinny on Discipleship will become a practical guide in your role as a disciple-maker. You’ll discover practical insights and powerful encouragement for knowing Jesus, loving him, and placing him at the center of your life— and then helping teenagers along on that same journey. When it comes to discipleship, there are no shortcuts, there’s no handbook for teenagers, and there’s no timeline on what it will take to help each teenager draw closer to Jesus. But you can follow the model of Jesus, rely on the truth that he’s with you, and remember that ultimately he loves teenagers even more than you do.

Big things can come in small packages, right? We think so, and that’s why we’ve created this series of small books about some of the biggest topics in youth ministry. We’ve trimmed away the excess and gotten right to the point of delivering more wisdom, insight, ideas, and live-it-out concepts than you’d expect in books this size! This series includes: • The Skinny on Communication • The Skinny on Discipleship • The Skinny on Outreach • The Skinny on Parents • The Skinny on Service • The Skinny on Volunteers Each title brings together two authors: one offering a big-picture perspective and the other delivering an in-the-trenches viewpoint—a dynamic fusion that provides you with the best of both worlds. If you’re new to youth ministry, these six books will help you build a solid foundation. If you’re a veteran, these books will challenge you toward fresh, creative thinking about your ministry.

History

Teenage girls are a lot-in the best way. Complex, dramatic, thoughtful, generous, frustrating, energetic, and ever-changing. This is largely because the teen years are marked by major shifts and growth, which makes them an ideal time to mentor girls toward a sustained, lifelong faith. This is no small task, but it's familiar territory for Katie Edwards a longtime youth worker, parent of two former teen girls, and a former girl herself. She's written Disciplemaking with Girls as a resource for the dedicated, caring adults ready to come alongside girls, build meaningful relationships, and pass down the ways of Jesus to the next generation.This practical, well-researched, and conversational book covers everything you'll need to know to be a disciplemaker, including what it's like to be a girl (covering cognitive, relational, physical, and social development), how we as adults can build trust and connection with girls, and what kinds of conversations and time together lead to meaningful steps toward sustained faith.These pages are full of real-life stories, plus guides and strategies for successful small groups, leader meetings, choosing curriculum, and beyond. This is a rich resource you'll refer back to for years as you continue the challenging and rewarding process of walking alongside girls who are becoming lifelong disciples of Christ.
