What Will They Remember 25 Years From Now? Legacy Edition

Jeanne had the priviledge of being invited to a reunion of SPIRENO, a youth group that she led 25 years ago. It was a great time getting together with some of her old students, some of whom are now the grandparents of the current students in the youth group! All had a wonderful time reminiscing and some of the things they remembered really surprised Jeanne.

Though most of you haven't been in youth ministry long enough to have a 25-year reunion, you might be interested in knowing just what they will remember...25 years from now. In this Leadership Coaching, Jeanne shares the 5 things that her students tell her over and over again were defining memories in their life. Interestingly, some of the things that she thought they would remember most, seemed to fade into the background. They made it clear that 25 years later, the things they remember weren't her "amazing messages" or "great events." But what they remember most was how Christ's life flowed out of her in the tiny ways to let them know that the love of Jesus Christ is more than a nice platitude, but a living, breathing reality.
