MONTHLY free resource

This month's free resource is a message on addictions. 
If you are in youth ministry, then you are aware of the pressures that are on students. Many times students are not aware that others just like them are failing to handle the pressure correctly.  Some students even turn to cutting, depression, abuse, or even suicide.  This message is one in a series from Jumpstart Resources that meets students head-on with how to defeat powerful secrets in their lives.  In this series "My Secret Life" students and adults honestly and transparently tell how they faced and defeated these issues.  Be sure to download the audio that you can re-teach and the video you can use to support the lesson.

**Be sure to visit www.globalyouthministry.org/jumpstart for the rest of this series and for more FREE resources.  In addition to our free resources, Global also provides verse by verse comprehensive Bible studies which are available on our online store for a nominal cost.  Each unit provides everything you need for one month of youth ministry!  Visit the church curriculum section of our site for great resources to teach Biblical truth to your teens!

CAMPS THAT YOU CAN BRING HOME

It's hard to believe that camp is coming up in a few short months!  With increasing numbers of students attending camp, we have added a great new location to our camp schedule this year: Eagle Eyrie in the Mountains near Lynchburg, VA!

Global Youth Camps provide an intimate camp experience where you and your students will not just see or hear the band, staff, and the speakers, but you'll experience and interact with them on a personal level.  Your students will have a blast as they show up to camp sites that offer so much more than you could experience on a college campus.  And while the students are having fun, they will also be downloading truths from the book of Nehemiah in a way that makes sense.  (Read more here.)

Beat the March 16 camp deposit deadline!  Reserve your space today!  Call us at 877.251.1800 or email us hereAlready registered?  Visit our Camp Promotion Web Page for tips on promoting camp to your students!  (top)

REAGAN'S RECOMMENDATION

This month I would like to recommend a great resource to pass on to your students.  It’s a year’s worth of daily devotionals adapted for students from Oswald Chambers’ classic “My Utmost for His Highest”.  It’s called “Everything Counts” by Steve Case.  If you are unfamiliar with “My Utmost for His Highest”, then that would be my recommendation for you personally.  You need to journey through this classic devotional.  I always joke about how incredible of a relationship Oswald must have had with Jesus to have shared such powerful teaching.   I think he had a big red phone (kind of like the Bat Phone that the commissioner used to call Batman on) that God would call him on daily and give him a new message for the day.  There’s rarely a time that I have picked up this book and God didn’t use it to get in my business, challenge me, convict me, or encourage me.  Your student could benefit greatly from this devotional!   You can find it at www.christianbook.com
