After thirty-plus years of youth ministry it would be easy to imagine that you’ve seen it all–and that there is nothing left to learn. The truth is, however, that if we just pay attention, God loves to surprise us with unexpected moments of joy and humor that serve as opportunities to learn new lessons, remind us of those we may have forgotten, and, most importantly, remember why we got into ministry in the first place. These experiences can also serve as comforting reminders that we’re not in charge. Knowing that the success of our ministry does not depend on us should be a relief and remembering that God uses broken and flawed people like us to build his kingdom should be an inspiration. This little book of ministry mishaps, miscalculations, and marvels is a reminder that delight and wonder abound when we are faithful and obedient to God’s calling.
