What NOT to do with your youth group

The other day I got into a joke conversation about activities NOT to do with a group of youth. Being the creative person that I am, I had a grand time thinking up activities that should probably stay away from the next youth group event or Wednesday night meeting. Here's just a sample of what NOT to do. Props to the various people who helped in the brainstorming.

#1 Commandeer a boat, give pirate names to everyone and start terrorizing the high seas.
#2 Dodgeball with rocks
#3 "the truth about your menstruation" co-ed series
#4 Hot chocolate mix snorting and creamer shots
#5 Farting contests near any open flame.
#6 Playing games with road kill... let's just add anything with roadkill to this one.
#7 Milk guzzling contests
#8 Spin the Bottle
#9 Taking the group to Hooters
#10 Hot sauce chugging contests in a casino

Quotes

"To discover the forgotten poor is more that the work of "social action", as some would call it. It is rather to put our Bibles back togeather again. Indeed, it is nothing less than to restore the integrity of the Word of God--in our lives, our congregations, our communities and our world." -- Jim Wallis; God's Politics

"He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God."
--Micah 6:8

"To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing."
-- Martin Luther

"Our political leaders, after all, are just that--political. No mater what their faith, or lack thereof, they are just plain old people doing a plain old job. They can't save America. It isn't in their job description. They can make changes at the margins by helping a bit here and there. But, ultimately, the work of America is our work. And my ultimate hope is back where it should be--not with fishing, not with politics, but with God."
--David Kuo; Tempting Faith
