What I&#;ve Learned in plus Years of Middle School Ministry
By Kurt Johnston
My middle school ministry career began when I was 22 and trying to finish college. Over the years I&#;ve made a lot of mistakes, done a few things right, and learned a ton of lessons.
In no particular order, here are some of the more significant lessons and aha moments I&#;ve experienced.
God Is in Control
I&#;m sure that, like me, you believe that. I&#;m also sure that, like me, your actions often betray that belief.
But I&#;ve learned that I&#;m not smart enough, creative enough, savvy enough, or spiritual enough to manufacture the things that happen in ministry or in the lives of students.
Oh, I try!

I&#;ve got goals, plans, vision statements, purpose statements, calendars of events, well-trained volunteers, and all the stuff that makes for good ministry. But when all of those things falter, which they seem to do on a regular basis, God stays faithful.
He loves my students more than I do
