First one

Ive been a youth pastor for just over 2 years now, serving in a tiny country town in NSW Australia called Blayney, with a population of about 3000. We have 50-60 kids each week at this stage, and I'm praying for 100. I know numbers don't mean much to God but for me its a sign of growth which is a sign of health. But my main aim as a youth pastor is to have an effective pastorship, not just a growing one.

I keep wanting someone to talk about ideas, to see if my version of youth pastoring is a normal one (normal... I know) or some days just to celebrate the good moments and have someone mourn with me over the bad moments.
