Ever feel like your lessons don’t stick with students? Maybe the key isn’t what you teach—it’s how.

Jesus didn’t teach in formulas; He told stories. The early church didn’t hand down bullet points; they shared the story of a risen Savior. As youth leaders, we help students see their place in God’s Story.

Leader Spotlight: Kevin Stout 🌟

Kevin serves as Student Pastor for Central Baptist Church in Warner Robins, GA. He has been serving in student ministry for 10 years and has a heart for seeing students’ lives transformed by the story of Jesus. 🤍
He recently shared what God is doing in the lives of his students…

“I’ve been so excited to see students take hold of the gospel and truly begin to live on mission—reaching their classmates, teammates, families, and even their bosses.

One incredible story is about a student named Miles, who felt convicted to share the gospel with his friend Elijah and invite him to church. That one step of obedience led to four different friends hearing the gospel, repenting, placing their faith in Christ, and being baptized this school year!

What stands out most about this generation is the growing hunger for holiness in young people. We’ve watched that hunger deepen as students study the Word, do life together, and step into leadership roles as they grow in the Lord.
God is doing something powerful in this generation, and I’m so thankful to be part of it.” 🙌

We love celebrating leaders who are faithfully investing in the next generation. Kevin, thank you for saying yes and making space for students to encounter Jesus!

Sometimes what feels like “just another night”
…is anything but ordinary. ✨

Tonight might be the night a student walks in carrying something heavy.
The night they finally feel seen.
The night they hear truth in a way that sticks.

And God wants to use you in that moment.

So before you walk in—pause.
Take a breath. Pray a simple prayer:
“God, use me tonight.” 🙏
