The Monday Morning Debrief: Evaluating Yesterday

Before moving on to this coming week’s TAKE A MINUTE and debrief what happened yesterday at church and at your youth program.

Church:

  1. What connections did you make at church yesterday?
  2. Did you have a conversation with a parent, student or leader that you need to follow up with today or this week?  Write down when you will follow up with them.
  3. How did you positively promote the youth program?

Youth Group:

  1. How did yesterday’s group go?  How was the energy level during the night (exciting or mundane)?
  2. Did you hit your goals for the evening?
  3. How was the message?  Did it connect with students?  What Truth of God did you hammer home?  What was the application?  If someone other than yourself gave the message, plan to meet up with him/her this week to go over their talk and debrief it with them.
  4. How did you build community in your group last night?
  5. Did you or any of your leaders have any conversations during the night that you to follow up on this week?  How so?
  6. How can you improve what happened yesterday for next week?
