Youth Sermons
Youth sermons can be a little tricky to produce. When speaking and presenting to our youth you have to remember a few important things about your audience. Here are six necessary points to remember when creating youth sermons to present to your youth ministry or your youth group.
Youth sermons should be direct and to the point. The fact is teens don’t have long attention spans and become distracted very easily. You can try and try to fight against this but if you go on for an extended period of time you will probably lose the mass majority of the students who will just tune you out.
Youth sermons should show your love and your passion for the material that you are teaching. If you are passionate about your love for Jesus Christ then when you are spreading the word to your students, that love and passion will show through. Don’t be afraid to be enthusiastic and excited about the material while presenting it to your students, as this will be in keeping everybody’s attention and everybody’s eyes on you. The more that they are focused on you, the more you can deliver the message that you are trying to give them.
Youth sermons do not have to be complicated and use a ton of technology. Today we have access to all kinds of media players such as TVs and computers to aid in our presentations. But the reality is sometimes you shouldn’t use these crutches, as they can get in the way of your message. If you have a clear and defined message that you want delivered to your students, standing in front of them delivering a message many times can be a much more impactful than if you were trying to dazzle them with a multimedia presentation.
The youth sermons that you deliver to your students should each have a clear defined goal or message. If you try to deliver too much material in one of your youth sermons, your message can get lost. So for each of the youth sermons that you deliver to your students have a focused clear defined message that you want them to take away from your time together. If you find yourself preparing youth sermons that have more than one message, it is a good idea to break those down into individual youth sermons that you can use at different times.
Lastly one of the most impactful things that you can do to make your youth sermons interesting to your students is to use stories from your own life and your community. If you can connect a message to somebody that your students know, they are much more likely to be interested in you will find it much easier to grab their attention than if you were talking about somebody that they have never heard of before. So try to personalize each one of your youth sermons to the best of your ability.
Keeping these tips in mind when creating and delivering your youth sermons will surely aid you in delivering the word of Jesus Christ.
