5. Set specific standards for leaders in your youth
ministry. While your staff can be made up of people
with various gifts, abilities, and personality styles, it
shouldn’t be open to just anyone. The quality of your
ministry will depend upon your ability to develop,
articulate, and positively enforce your standards for
what constitutes a qualified youth leader.

-> Tell me about “Who Do You Say that I AM?”
Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do others
say that I am?" It was easy to answer
because it required no conviction, no
commitment, and no risk. But then he
follows that question with another, "Who
do YOU say that I am?"
