Launch Update: We’ve now sold 343 ebooks! We’ve had youth leaders from all over the U.S, France, Norway, U.K, Australia, Barbados, and Canada grab a copy. I’m excited to see so many people become the "first" to get their hands on this resource. Look at what some of them have said about the ebook here!


My new online e-course to help youth pastors & youth leaders improve their talks…


Talk Boosters: Methods I’ve Learned From 21 Years Of Preaching That Can Take Your Talks To A New Level


These are unconventional, little-known, and little used methods to help your talks to grab your students attention and encourage them to take action. Learn about it here!


You are snatched from your current church (or other current job) and put at a church in the suburbs where you have to start all over again. There are five kids there.


Two are the senior pastor’s kids. There are three boys and two girls. Two are in High School and three are in Junior High. You are asked to build a ministry that will continue on after you leave. You have one year to do this. You have a limited budget.


I was in student ministry for about 14 years. I really loved being a youth pastor and I miss those days.


One thing that I hated to see in my own ministry was when students that you poured your life into, walked away from the Lord when they graduated.


The thing I hated that I saw, or heard of, in other groups was when a youth group collapsed and disintergrated when their youth pastor left.


I learned a lot in those 14 years to know what it takes to build a lasting student ministry, but I also wanted to know what others thought. I wondered…


No large church. No large budget. Just a small church with a small youth group.


I began interviewing 14 top student leaders, a year or so ago, and gave them the imaginary situation you just read at the top here.


Based on this imaginary situation, I asked these top student leaders some simple questions:


1.What are two common mistakes most pastors make when starting a student ministry that you would be sure not to make? 2.What methods/steps would you use to lay a strong foundation that would last beyond your time there? 3.What is one method/system you would use to see numerical growth as quickly as possible? 4.What is one method/system you would use to see lasting spiritual growth? I was really excited to see the answers that I received and I think you will be too.


In fact, you can read one of the interviews right now to see an example of what the other 13 interviews are like. That way you can know this ebook is worth getting before you pay for it.

Fill-in your info below and you’ll automatically be sent the download link! ** You’ll also get a subscription to "LSM Tips Ezine" with articles and tips from the ebook on how to build a lasting student ministry. (You can unsubscribe automatically at any time.)


This is only ONE small point from 7 of the contributors. All 14 leaders go in more depth to answer the 4 questions about creating a lasting student ministry.


"Scott Aughtmon is one of the most passionate and creative leaders I know. He challenges the way I think. His ebook is a must-read for youth leaders that want to make a difference."


Mark Batterson Lead Pastor, National Community Church in Washington, DC (www.theaterchurch.com). Chosen by Outreach magazine as "The 25 Most Innovative Churches in America". He is the author of the popular book, "In A Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day" (http://www.chasethelion.com). He writes a popular daily blog at http://www.evotional.com.


What I personally like about this ebook is the diversity and unity in it.


I wanted to come up with a fair price to ask for this ebook, but still keep it cheap enough, so that any youth pastor could afford it.


I figured, if you went to a youth ministry conference you could pay from from $39 up to $375 – plus travel costs, a hotel room, and food.


You’d pay over $20 if you bought a phyical book from just two of these leaders.


That’s cheaper than it’d cost you for a movie for two – without popcorn and drinks! :)


My point is that we spend or waste more money than this all the time. I figure this a fair price for you, but still doesn’t cheapen the time, effort and content that was put into this ebook by these student ministry leaders and myself.


A Free Subscription To "Lasting Student Ministry" Ezine: This is a CUSTOMER ONLY ezine where I will monthly help you take methods and priniciples from the ebook and apply them to your life and ministry.


You can have all these "extras" and my ebook for about the same price (or less) than you’d pay for ONE physical book.


"As I read through the pre-release of this book I was amazed at how many different answers there were to the same questions. " I still feel strongly about the answers that I gave, but seeing all the other answers from my peers, who I respect, gave me a larger picture of youth ministry overall.


"From this book you will learn about the many ideas of youth ministry, even ones I don’t personally agree with. The unique format of this book gives you a great collection of practical insights from real youth workers. " Most, like me, are actual youth workers. I highly recommend this book for all youth ministers–those just starting out and those wise veterans. You will take away many nuggets and new insight to implement what you are doing at…
