(This curriculum is adapted from Vineyard Youth USA’s Virtual Project Timothy)
We are all too familiar with all the ways we’ve had to adjust because of the pandemic.
One of those, for Vineyard Youth, was that we took Project Timothy 2021 virtual. The upside to this, is we are now repurposing these videos for you! Taken together, this is a great youth leadership curriculum that you can use with your whole group to talk about leadership, or with your teen leadership core. However it works best for you!
There are nine videos in all, split into two sections. The first section is “Leadership” and focuses on five biblical traits of a leader. The second section is “Ministry Training” and includes four practical teachings with a “how-to” approach to four common areas of ministry that leaders engage in.
A few of the videos also have an added bonus: worship! Since these were originally created for Project Timothy, three of the videos were used as night meetings with a full worship set from three different teen worship bands. Feel free to use that for youth group as well, or just fast forward to the teaching!
Lastly, this packet will provide small group questions to engage your teen leaders in after each video. Be sure to download the corresponding study questions for each topic. We hope you find this content helpful as you continue to raise up the next generation of leaders!
