I am officially and publicly making myself available to help churches find the right peeps for their youth ministry position openings and connect youth worker candidates with current youth ministry openings.  I have been getting a lot of inquires regarding: How can I become a youth pastor?  How can our church find a family ministry and missional minded youth worker?  What are some qualifications to become a youth pastor? What does it take to get hired by a church? Do you know of any churches looking to a hire a youth pastor?

So I thought it was time to develop an online application process and a confidential database of churches and youth pastors that were looking.

This is what I am willing to do for youth pastor candidates and churches:  

-  Connect a church with a youth pastor candidate and connect youth pastor candidates with churches

-  Evaluate and assess each youth pastor candidate

-  Help candidates craft resume and youth ministry philosophy

-  Compile a confidential database of: 1)  churches seeking to fill a youth ministry position and 2) youth ministry candidates that are seeking to work at a church
