Summary
This week on Youth Group Chronicles, Sam is joined by Buddy Jenkins and John Scarborough for a lineup of stories that prove youth ministry is never predictable. From a late-night “attempted kidnapping” that spiraled into a full parent meltdown, to a mysterious intruder shoving students awake in the middle of the night, to a kid secretly producing an entire army of paper cut-out gingerbread criminals, things escalate fast. Sam also hears a story about a pastor’s parent meeting that goes wildly off the rails, a prayer moment that takes an extremely unfortunate turn, and a youth leader whose attempt to maintain order crosses a few too many lines. But nothing tops the chaotic moment that turns an innocent youth event into a full-blown splash zone—courtesy of one fearless middle schooler. Tune in and prepare to be concerned for humanity.
