Jesus said,

"I have come to give life to the FULL..." He is saying that life is MEANT to be purposeful, abundant, lacking nothing, extraordinary, and exciting. This post is about going through the FIVE principles of FUN that EVERY youth ministry should experience. In other words, building a theology of FUN in Youth Ministry. 

There are burdens to leadership – weights, needs, hurts, disappointments, criticism – that tends to go with the territory of leading. 

Exercise – weight training, cardio, walking, hiking – have great benefits to enhance ministry (not just your body). Even the Apostle Paul mentioned the importance of exercise so that spiritual effectiveness would be evident.

Have you ever been overwhelmed before? Overwhelmed with the NEED and DEMANDS of ministry outweighing the time, effort, and resources you have? Well... many have felt the same. In any case, God CALLS you and I to be good stewards with what we have (not what we don't have) -  and that includes our time.
