Things I've learned from middle school ministry:
- everyone is awkward, some people just show it a little more than others
- no one likes walking into a big room of people alone, even if you're 28
- there should always be snacks
- no one likes everything about themselves
- find joy in the crazy moments in life
- never underestimate the power of a good hug
- if one person is excited, most other people are excited
- it's actually really helpful to talk through consequences of decisions
- coffee is a wonderful, beautiful gift from the Lord above
- farting is still really funny
- 13-year-olds must always be nudged toward what is best for them, because they won't choose it on their own
- God equips you for the ministry He calls you to
- Twizzlers can make you friends
- flirting is an important way to develop social skills
