MAKE IT OR BREAK IT // Free Youth Ministry Resource

StuffYouCanUse.org is a children’s and youth ministry resource sharing site. Last week at Soulies we used a free resource with 25 video clips, ‘Make It or Break It‘. Each clip is a short clip of someone doing an extreme sport, it’s paused and people then need to guess whether the person was successful (make it) or not (break it) in their jump/grind/etc. Simple and effective for a crowd of any size.

When we did it at soulies, rather than having one representative up the front, everyone competed and sat down if they got the incorrect answer.

IS SEXTING REALLY SEX? @FERVR #TSBTB

What is ‘sex’? How do we define sexual activity? Is sex just penis-vagina intercourse or are kissing, fingering or oral sex also seen as ‘sex’? Surely sending a sexy photo or texting suggestive stuff is just a bit of fun, isn’t it? Dr Patricia Weerakoon (author of Teen Sex By the Book) delves into this tricky area in this Teen Sex By the Book video.

WHAT’S SO BAD ABOUT PORN? // @FERVR #TSBTB

A recent study showed that among 13-16 years old, 93% of males and 62% of females have seen pornography online. So with so many teenagers accessing it, the question is, is porn harmless fun or is it doing more damage than we release? Dave Miers (Minister, Youth Evangelist and Blogger) tackles this question for us in this Teen Sex By the Book video.

DOES GOD HATE SEX? // @FERVR #TSBTB

What does playful, fun and romantic sex have to do with God? Most people believe that God is a ‘killjoy’ who doesn’t want you to have fun sex. Is that true? Steve and Naomi Chong (Leaders of Kirkplace Presbyterian Church and the RICE movement) share their thoughts on these questions and more in this Teen Sex By The Book video.

TEEN SEX BY THE BOOK // @FERVR #TSBTB

Fervr has launched a new book today! Teen Sex By The Book, by Dr Patricia Weerakoon, is a frank and important discussion on teenage sexuality. It is rated M15+ for obvious adult themes and explicit sexual references. I think the book will be useful for senior high teenagers, parents, youth leaders and others working with young people. The launch vid:

#TSBTB presents a sound theological understanding of sex from the Bible. Weerakoon also brings credibility and honesty with her professional background as a sexologist.

Over the next 5 Fridays they will be launching 5 Videos on 5 related Hot Topics. Keep an eye out on this blog and fervr. Find out more and purchase #TSBTB here.

COMPETITION: I’m personally giving away 2 copies of #TSBTB to 2 random people who leave a comment on this post. Entries close on 25 October. Winners will be announced on Friday 26 October. (Postage in Australia only)
