WHO IS A TEEN MINISTER, COACH, OR MENTOR?

2Tim 2:2, 4:2. Phil 4:6 (humility)

A Teen minister, coach or mentor is an adult who is more experience, more mature and is willing to help a teenager or teenagers to be like him/her or better than him/her through Christ. An adult who is willing to teach, guide, guard and lead a teenage is a teen coach. I say willing because it’s not every adult that is ready to go through the process of leading these young ones.

So Teen ministry is not about the adult but it’s about the Teenager. When we have the mind set, we act differently when we face challenges in Teen Ministry.

Mentoring somebody is disciplining the person, being there for the person either formally or informally.

Mentoring teenagers is demanding, we should know that we are not dealing with adults or children. They are special group of persons, we need to put in our resources in mentoring teenagers.

If, we are ready to “save the next generation”, we should check if we are ‘save’ ourselves. ‘Save’ here I mean if we have accepted the teachings others taught us and we are ready to pass it to the next generation like Paul told Timothy in 2 Tim 2:2.

We should not stay high there and say we are mentoring teenagers. Until we come to their level, we will not know and hear what challenges they are going through.

When a teenager sees and feels your love and concern on issues that bothers him or her, they will definitely believe in you. At that point, rules and instructions easily obeyed and followed.

Teen mentors should get to the point where your teenagers can cry and tell you that very silly act.

WHAT'S YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO LIFE❓

WHAT'S YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO LIFE❓ Everyone and everything on earth has something to contribute to life however big or however small. The trees, the sun, the moon, the sand, insects, cars, ideas and everything existing whether animate or inanimate has a lot to fulfill. If animals and even inanimate object contributes to living and has things to offer the world; thoughts like why humans created with better features and qualities feel they have nothing to offer this world can't help but peruse my mind. Reminiscing on these thoughts, I think it's because people has lost sight of the value of the little things. As the saying goes, "little drops of water makes a might ocean", that little smile can start a life changing relationship. That kind act of love can save a generation. That transport fare paid for that stranger can make a billionaire. That silent prayer said can heal a life. Talk more of the teachings we've been giving out to thousands of pe...

I CHOOSE TO BE A NIGERIAN by John Johnson

I CHOOSE TO BE A NIGERIAN In my quiet moment, I thought within myself the Impact of western civilization on Africa, precisely Nigeria. And this question kept flowing through my mind, and I ask you. Did we truly gain independence in 1960? A question that seems simple, yet complicated when truly analyzed. In 1960 we simply became more dependent by moving from Dependence to being In Dependence (which explains the depth of our mental dependence). When they left our land, they did not leave with their language, their ideologies, their systems, their beliefs, their values, and the worse of all their identity. Little wonder, we always want to talk and act like them. The very reason why we have made them our standard for measuring almost everything. We undermine the uniqueness of a true African and have not taken seriously the fact that our culture is preserved in our local languages. For instance, "Thank you" in most Nigerian languages would mean: "I'm ...
