Synopsis
Most youth workers will admit that they donât spend a lot of time thinking about safety in their youth ministry. Sure, they shout, âSeat belts!â when the crew loads into the van, or they use the buddy system when at theme parks. But beyond that, theyâre mostly concerned with introducing students to Jesus. Nothingâs wrong with looking after their spiritual well-being, but overlooking their safety can lead to pain and problems for you, your students, your church, or your community.The reality is, whether itâs a game of dodgeball in the church gym, or a rock climbing trip during a summer retreat, you have precious cargo in your care, and itâs your responsibility to make sure they return home safely and in one piece.Better Safe Than Sued is an essential guidebook for anyone in youth ministryâpaid or volunteer, veteran or rookie. Along with questions to get you thinking about your own ministry context after each chapter, inside youâll discover how you can make your ministry a safe place for students and leaders as you read about:⢠Safety while riding in buses, vans, and cars⢠Camps, retreats, and conferences⢠Selecting staff⢠Avoiding sexual misconduct⢠Establishing a No-Bully Zone⢠How to handle injuries, and much moreMake sure your ministry is safe and that youâre protected so you never have to be the one saying, âI never took safety seriously until â¦â
