Are you a Junior or a Senior?
Are you ready for the challenge of living out
your faith before your peers?
Are you ready to take the step into leadership?

THEN DISCOVER
​STUDENT LEADERSHIP!

You are a student leader for a reason. Maybe you chose to be, maybe someone else chose it for you—no matter how you got here, God has a plan to use you in ministry. You and your youth worker know that you’re new at this thing. You have leadership abilities, but you’re still a student—so how do you do it?

​Doug Fields has been a youth pastor for a long time, and he has helped a few students here and there figure out how to be leaders in his ministry. Now he’s here to help you. You may be afraid or overwhelmed, or you may feel privileged … or even a little cocky ... whatever the case, the tools in this book will help you get the most of your time as a leader.

Here’s a little bit of what’s inside:

• Learning how Jesus led others
  
• Taking owner of the ministry & serving alongside your adult leaders
  
• Discovering the secrets of getting others involved
  
• Deepening your own faith by serving others
  
• Balancing your schedule—family, school, faith, leadership
  
• Becoming an encourager
  

​
With the role of leadership comes greater responsibilities, and Help! I’m a Student Leader! is full of hands-on leadership ideas and guidance that’ll help you discover the leadership role that you were created to fill.
