Welcome to the reimagine, The Youth Worker Daily. Wow, this site has transformed over the years. From a simple blog where I shared my youth ministry musings, to what has become a fully functioning resource site for youth workers. In 2020, during the Covid Pandemic, what was known as the Student Ministry Today blog became The Youth Worker Daily. It was part of a rebranding to include a podcast, while expanding the resources.
Since 2020, The Youth Worker Daily has been a hit or miss. As a full-time youth worker, I had to balance my ministry with the site and, quite frankly, ministry came first. But things have changed. My roll in full-time ministry is different, and now I have time to really work the site as I've always hoped.
New Content
New content. I'm looking forward to sharing new thoughts and ideas, while sharing more of my experience and expertise. The youth culture is rapidly changing and with it, the world of youth ministry. As youth workers we need to be up to speed and aware of the needs our students.
Refreshing some old content
With the new content, I will be revisiting past posts. I will be sharing the more popular and helpful post that have been sitting in the archives, along with posting articles that have been in my drafts folder.
Resources. Resources. Resources.
There are so many great resources available for youth workers. Game ideas, curriculum, videos, books, movies, podcasts, and so much more. Each week we will have a highlighted resource that I have used and found helpful.
Conversations with Every Day Youth Workers
The podcast, Conversations with Every Day Youth Workers, will return for a new season! The Conversations podcast sits with "in-the-trenches" youth workers who are doing incredible ministry with their students. It's a chance to share stories, get a glimpse of neighboring ministries, and talk about student ministry.
The Youth Worker Daily Vlog
The Youth Worker Daily Vlog fires up again on later this year! This 10-15 minute vlog is the heart of the site. It's where you'll get your tools, tips, and more. The vlog will post every Monday, so you will want to be sure to subscribe and follow along here on the site or on our YouTube channel: YouTube.com/@theyouthworkerdaily.
It all gets started right here in October. Then look forward to new blog content on Tuesday mornings. Wednesday will welcome our Resource of the Week. Thursday's will play host to the Conversations With Every Day Youth Workers podcast (returning in mid January 2024). And, Flashback Friday's bring the week to a close as we share something from the archives! And if that's not enough, coming in January 2024, TYWD hopes to help youth workers with strategic ministry planning, and speaking opportunities.
It's going to be a great adventure, and we can't wait to get started with you! - TYWD
