I got this note from my friend Megan from Memphis, TN. “We are lucky enough to have a very talented guitar player at our club every week. However, if you aren’t that fortunate, I struck Karaoke gold. No worries. There are no "backup singers" and cheesy synthesizers. Instead, it’s just […]
The other night I was having a conversation with a veteran YL leader from my area. He has been in YL over twenty years. We were talking about the club talk progression early in the semester. The club he leads decided to start right off with “person of Christ” talks. […]
I ’m sure many of you already know all about YLPlaybook, but if you don’t, you should check it out! It is a growing collection of games, mixers, run-ons, and all kinds of stuff. They are all tagged for easy review. One thing I’m really impressed with about YLPlaybook is […]
Each year we kick off the school year with an All-Area Dodgeball tournament. It is a ton of fun. During “half-time”, we give a short club talk. Let me set the scene… 250+ high school students, many of them new to YL, they have been running, dodging, competing, arguing about […]

I was pointed to a site that is awesome for making scripture memory cards in a nice format. This could be helpful for leadership meetings, work crew training, campaigners. Basically it will format the cards for you in a nice format. It is called Verse Card Maker from Michael Scott, […]
This year we were able to move into a bigger house (yeah recession!) that was closer to the school so that we could have club there. We had been wanting this for a long time (you can read about that here). My wife and I had talked about it even […]
This year we decided to get stickers made up for each school with club. On the stickers we had a YL logo and the school name. Surprisingly, they were very cheap to make. You can find custom one-color stickers for five to ten cents each depending on how many you […]
In our community there is a large outdoor mall that is very popular. On weekends there are typically a few bands playing outdoors and it is packed. On Monday nights they have the stage sitting there and no one using it. It made us think… we should use it! So […]
