Look at the Stars...

Welcome to my third installment of Simply Youth Ministry Conference, do's and don'ts.
Today, we're talking about a naturally occurring phenomena in our country and that is, Stardom. So here we go...

Do - Enjoy the heavy hitting list of speakers, and artists that will be at the conference. The list is seriously ridiculous! Francis Chan, Jeremy Camp, Shane & Shane, the Skit Guys... Ok you get it. You can check out the full list here.

Don't - Get starstruck. Each and every one of these artists and speakers are there to minister to you! SYMC is all about relationships, and the culture of relational ministry they cultivate is blatantly evident with the folks they choose to bring out to invest in us as youth workers. If you aren't running into the artists, speakers and teachers, you aren't attending SYMC! They seriously just hang out wherever and are completely accessible. Just please, if they ask you what your name is, remember the response is not "Squee!". 
While they may be a big famous speaker or worship leader, they are people. Just people. But more importantly they want to speak to you about your life and ministry, and yes they will take a picture with you too!

I'd love to hear your SYMC encounters, leave 'em here!

Blessings,

Jeremiah
