Subscribe to the podcast and share with a friends! First service of 2017 was in the books. It was great! I talk about creating unity in my youth ministry along with some big initiatives I have started for students to invite their friends to youth group.

Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast or our newsletter. This weeks podcast is a little longer and a little different. I get this question so often. "What do you do all day?" This question can seem annoying or even offensive. But this question is a real thing to consider for us to do Youth Ministry. I lay out my week and attached an excel document with the outline so you can edit and make your own week. The important thing is that you make a plan.

We reached the last Youth Ministry night of 2016. Full of Christmas festivities and more. I share about this neat illustration I used using legos and give you all the details about my leader Christmas Party. Share with a friend!

This past week a big snow storm prevented us from meeting on our normal youth ministry night. I talk about why I decided to cancel and the alternative options I choose from in lieu of the meeting. Please share with a youth pastor friend and subscribe!

This week's episode we discuss the new Christmas series we started called Christmas Nightmares from Ministry Pass. We also played with the new game "PieFace Showdown." I also give you some insight on my youth ministry leadership structure and how I am calling leaders to more. Go to FrankGil.me for all the links!

It is Thanksgiving week! I hope you get a time with family and delicious food. I recorded this episode using my headphones and my macbook pro. So the quality might not be great but the heart is there. We go over the ins and outs of my last youth service and talk about my events I had this past weekend where I rented laser tag guns from LasterTagSource.com. Overall, awesome week and I am looking forward to eating some stuffing with gravy!

This week episode is so good I added 4 minutes to our time together. I talk about finger jousting! A silly game that will become an instant favorite. I also discuss this great book called "Can I Ask That" which has helped me write one of the best apologetics series ever for students. I also talked about how the election of Donald Trump has affected my students and what I told all my leaders in light of that. Please share and subscribe this podcast!

Thank you so much for everyone who listened to the first two episodes. Your kind words and support means so much to me. Some how you made this little podcast be in the top 100 podcasts for Religion and Spirituality for a couple days. That is crazy! Please subscribe if you haven't done so already and share this podcast with anyone you know who works in student ministry. Also check out my interview with the folks of After 9. They asked me some really good questions and it was fun to hang with them. In this episode we talk about me forgetting to add a video to Pro Presenter and how to make topics than can be dry and boring into interesting messages for students.

Episode 1 is here! Exciting times my friends. In this episode I share what all went down in my 90s night as well as give you some of my thoughts on how to deal with the contentious holiday of Halloween in your student ministry. Plus, if you stick around you will get some free stuff!

Frank started a podcast! If you know who I am then you could probably skip this episode but if you don't, get to know the man behind the beard. You will learn a bit about how I ended up here and what this podcast is all about.
