Sticky Faith Service Guide, Student Journal Summary

Sticky Faith Service Guide, Student Journal: How Serving Others Changes You by Kara Powell

So you're on fire, you want to make a difference, you want to change the world...but how?

Signing up for a service project or mission trip is a great first step. But you probably have a lot of questions. Are you ready for the different cultures you may encounter? How are you going to really connect with the people you serve? And what about when you come home-how do you make sense of all the things you've experienced? Will any of it make a lasting difference for anyone?

It turns out that if you really want to change the world, you have to change too. The only way that's going to happen is if you spend time before, during, and after your trip preparing for and processing your work.

This Journal will help you think about:

* Why you're going

* The people you're serving

* Your relationship with your teammates

* How God factors into your service project

* The impact your experience has had on you

* How you can keep making a difference back at home

If you think you're fired up to serve now, just wait! This hands-on Journal will equip you to serve in a way that sticks-both for you and those you serve.

* How you can keep making a difference back at home

If you think you're fired up to serve now, just wait! This hands-on Journal will equip you to serve in a way that sticks-both for you and those you serve.

Table of Contents

Summary of changes proposed for the new product: * An overall shift in the language from justice journeys to wording that would be more palatable for conservative churches, while still emphasizing God's heart for justice for the poor and marginalized throughout. * Cut exercises that feel outdated in order to make space for new writing, but also consider increasing the total word count by about 5,000 based on the ideas above. * Invite fresh writers to contribute additional exercises. For example, Brooklyn Lindsey (a YS author) has been using Deep Justice Journeys in her youth ministry. We would like to invite her to add a session on serving with middle schoolers, and perhaps an activity or two. Other potential contributors are listed below. * Think about alternative content delivery methods and whether additional downloadable/DVD-based resources would be helpful to leaders. Consider video resources that could be companions from the FYI production side, either free or as single-sale bonus products. (?) * Retool the student journal to create a smaller, less expensive (?) product that leaders can afford and will want to put in students' hands. The curriculum may include contributions from the following short-term missions leaders, researchers, and youth ministry practitioners (* indicates a contributor to the original manuscript of Deep Justice Journeys): * Dr. Dave Livermore,* Executive Director of the global Cultural Intelligence Center * Dr. Terry Linhart,* Bethel College Indiana * April Diaz,* Leadership Development Director at Newsong Church in Irvine, CA * Brooklyn Lindsey, Youth Pastor at Highland Park Nazarene Church in Lakeland, FL * Mike Park, Student Integration Pastor at Newsong Church in Irvine, CA * Matt Laidlaw, Pastor of Kids and Student Ministries at Mars Hill Bible Church in Grand Rapids, MI * Laura Larsen, youth worker and curriculum developer for YouthFront in Kansas City, MO * Kurt Rietema,* YouthFront in Kansas City, MO * Lisette Fraser, FYI writer, Youth Pastor at Glenkirk Community Church in Glendora CA and formerly a youth pastor in Canada * Jesse Oakes, High School Pastor at Lake Avenue Church, Pasadena CA * Meredith Miller, FYI writer and former outreach ministry coordinator at Pepperdine University Also, downloadable extras from fulleryouthinistitute.org (videos, extras).
