I was kind of excited to see that I was doing this even before I read Purpose Driven Youth Ministry. We worked hard to put good data into our student ministry database-more than just name/etc, we captured a lot of good info. I would spend time every other week going through our list, calling or writing students that I hadn’t seen in a while.
But here’s the cool idea: in April, I’d look at the list of seniors and see names of students that had just drifted away from our minis...
