Throw some food out and they will swoop. Food is a good tool in youth ministry. If you run a Christian group in a school, bring hot chips and bread every week. If you run a youth group, kick off with dinner, finish with supper. If you’ve got a small group bible study, junk food is essential.
Food is a good way to break ice. It’s awkward trying to get a year 7 boy to stop running around and have a conversation. Put some food in his hand and it removes weirdness.

Over the weekend, I was part of a killer conference for teenagers from the Townsville and Cairns region of Queensland. It was very good! Danny Mitchell from Youthsurge joined me for the trip, he is better than a game-show host! We had a great time.
There were a whole bunch of young crew that became Christian, and a bunch more recommitted their lives to following Jesus. Stay tuned for the talks. Here’s some twittering that I did over the weekend (reverse-chronological order):
