Session 1: The Key to Effective Programming

In this session, Josh Griffin discusses the key to youth ministry programming. Everything we do is the message (not only our sermon). Josh challenges us to ask: what is our environment communicating to students? Josh leads us to consider students' experience from the street to their seats and guides us with insight to create an engaging, warm, and inviting environment in our youth ministry spaces, even BEFORE our service begins.
