Wednesday Nov 02, 2022
How can we use social media in a way to really advance our ministry to students without it becoming an overwhelming beast that always demands our attention? In other words, how can we use it as a tool to advance our mission rather than it taking over? On this solo episode of Student Ministry Connection, Steve shares 10 social media tips for those in lead in student ministry.

090: Avoiding Burnout with James Sabin
Wednesday Oct 05, 2022
Wednesday Oct 05, 2022
How do we avoid burnout in ministry? Many of us are used to going at 90 miles an hour, firing on all cylinders 24/7, and rarely looking out for ourselves. But if we’re honest, most of us know we can’t keep that up. So how do we continue to do good student ministry for the long haul? On this episode, we brought back James Sabin, the youth and family pastor at Kingdom Church in Westover, WV. The last time James was on the podcast was episode 34, where he talked about his own burnout story and how to overcome burnout. Today, with that season behind him, James talks about how to avoid burnout, the importance of rhythms, why we should stay connected, and so much more!
