An EGADIdeas.Com Podcast
3 people + the occasional special guest + a dusty, stained, floral-printed couch in a church basement = the hottest news in student ministry, reviews of games, suggestions for events, and everything else you have ever wanted to know about bringing youth to Christ one game of Sniper Dodgeball at a time! - 4OnTheCouch.Com

This podcast goes to eleven! This week we try to figure out if it is possible to track down any media or movies to show at a youth event that pass the sniff tests for both appropriateness-for-a-church-event and lack-of-sucking (and we eventually come to the conclusion that maybe the time we devote to movie nights might better be put to better use). We also chat a bit about the role retreat weekends can play in our overall youth ministry strategy.
For our EGADIdeas Game o’ the Week, we share our favourite Fear Factor Night games (including The Blender of Doom, which will haunt Lauren’s dreams for the rest of her life).
The comments want to know your experiences with Fear Factor nights and your best gross-out games!

This week we respond to a comment from Bill, who wondered if we had any suggestions on how youth leaders can find a good balance between Bible teaching and games/activities, especially when a significant percentage of the students are unchurched. Ian shares some thoughts from a great book he has been reading lately and we hear a bit from Jonathan McKee on his website, The Source for Youth Ministry.
This week’s EGADIdeas Game o’ the Week is the Toilet Paper Fashion Show (plus a variation on the game called “Stuff-That-Is-Going- Stale-In-Lauren’s-Kitchen Fashion Show”).
