[...] of different backgrounds, and none of us is exactly the ‘typical’ youth minister (only one goatee in the whole bunch!) In all seriousness, though, we are going to learn so much from each other! [...]

You’re in Opposite Church. The Seniors are all on Twitter and Facebook and downloading apps to their iPhones. Meanwhile the most popular music in the Youth Group lock-in is Pat Boone, The Ray Coniff Singers, and Lawrence Welk.

Too funny…When i first took this position of Youth Minister I felt pretty sure that as a 50 yr old Woman, i would stand out not having the token tatoo, goatee and guitar on my hip…After much insecurity I need to happily say that sure enough I am getting a little chin hair…I used to pluck it out, now I am waiting for it to get a little thicker..Does using my kids temporary tatoo make me a better youth minister too?

Mine used to have one, but we all thought he looked like an evil twin version of himself, and that just creeped us out.

p.s. I would grow a goatee if I could. But unfortunately all I can swing are some Ebeneezer Scrooge type mutton chops. And roughly 19 people on the planet find those attractive and 100% of them are not named “my wife.”

omg, im STILL laughing! your brilliant

Beware of a candidate with a beard of bees.

Our past three youth ministers have been goatee-less. However, our pastor at times sports a goatee. But then again, he rides a Harley. I think it's just a blending of those worlds. I LOVE this blog btw. I missed it so so very much this past month when I was in Puerto Rico.

dont know about the states, but here in Canada i'd say 78% of youth pastors have shaved their heads

(and of those 44% have goatees).

Hmmm…I always thought that my youth leaders were abnormal. None of them have a goatee, though Jonathan had a soul patch thing going on for part of last year, and Mark had a beard-thingy last month, but it was really gray, so he just looked old, and I'm now going to stop adding commas to this sentence.;)

This is so true but at my church growing up we had no goatee'd ministers. Our youth pastor was bearded though!
