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

Sorry that we haven’t churned out the next podcast. It was recorded over a week ago but recorder we use has gone AWOL. I now know where it is, will get it at church tomorrow and will get on to the editing.

Tune into Episode 6 for a discussion on youth-ministry-based leadership training, some surprising (at least to us) statistics on drug use amongst teens, and some tips on how to make the most of the many ways we have to communicate with our students.
This week’s EGADIdeas Game o’ The Week is the Tower of Flour - a messy game that sounds like a lot of fun but gives Lauren the heebie-jeebies.

It’s our Sex, Technology, and Rock & Roll episode! This week, we discuss this article on abstinence education and our role in this as youth leaders, the Straight Edge movement and whether there are things we watch/say/do that we’d prefer our students not know about, and the role of modern technology in worship. Plus Lauren gets in a few good digs at Chris and Ian for being older than the hills. We also highlight Jonathan McKee’s website and podcast at: The Source For Youth Ministry.
Our EGADIdeas Game o’ the Week is Air Jello.

This week’s podcast features a discussion on this article and the pros and cons of students dating other students within the youth group, and Chris examines planning your Bible study time for the year, based on The Seven Checkpoints by Andy Stanley.
This week’s EGADIdeas Game o’ the Week is tag - each of us share our favourite update to this old standard.

This week on 4 On The Couch, Ian answers the age-old question of how can we determine which movies are appropriate to show at youth events and suggests a great resource. Lauren shares how to run a 3-tiered Random Acts of Kindness event at your next overnight youth event, and Chris talks about the challenges and blessings inherent in saying NO. This week’s EGAD! Ideas Game o’ the Week is a backwards scavenger hunt.

Well, I upgraded our podcasting plugin last week and it seems to have messed things up with Wordpress. Episode 3 is “in the can” and ready to be posted but there are some technical problems behind the scenes. I should have something up soon!

If you tune into this week’s podcast, you can learn how Lauren orders a latte, what Chris thinks about the value of hang-out time at youth night, and how to addiction-proof your teen, according to this controversial article on CNN.com
The EGADIdeas.com Game o’ the Week is actually several games this week … Lauren shows you the fun you can have with a tube of pink lipstick, Ian shares the reasons why soccer baseball is his favourite self-sustaining game, and Chris calls Lauren a pig, but in a completely non-offensive way.
Lauren | 10:00 am | October 13, 2007 | Podcast
Tune into our inaugural podcast to hear Chris’s thoughts on game safety, an inspirational story from Ian on this year’s See You At The Pole event, and tips and tricks from Lauren on running a tuck shop in your youth room. The Game o’ the Week on EGADIdeas.com is Camouflage, an exciting outdoor update to traditional Hide & Seek.
