FREE youth ministry RESOURCES

 In NYI, we focus on the three core strategies of evangelism, discipleship, and leadership development. More commonly, we refer to these as “BE, DO, and GO.” These three strategies are at the very core of who we are. 

NYI Connect was developed to provide easily accessible resources for youth pastors and leaders across the USA/Canada Region Church of the Nazarene. The site features a variety of resources including blog posts on a wide range of topics, leadership development videos, and a running list of youth ministry websites, blogs, and tools for your convenience. Our hope is that NYI Connect becomes a place where youth pastors and leaders can learn and be equipped for the real world of youth ministry.

 Nazarene Youth International brought together a team of 18 writers, equally representing each of the six regions of the Church of the Nazarene, to share stories, ideas, and strategies for engaging youth in the key missional areas of evangelism, discipleship and leadership development. The outcome is a three-book series which will help youth leaders take a closer look at their own ministry philosophies and practices and be encouraged to give renewed attention to engaging youth in the work of evangelism, discipleship, and leadership development in their church. 

We all need a little extra help sometimes. Why reinvent the wheel? Check out these great youth ministry websites for inspiration, connection, and education.
