We do a youth pastor gift guide every year and it’s a big hit. Personally, I think it’s a great way to list all the things that I love. This year the youth pastor’s gift guide doesn’t have a ton of tech toys, but instead has some essential things that youth pastors need.
These are all things that I used in my youth ministry, or I would love to use/have. If you want to purchase us a gift this year feel free to send it to us (you can find my address here).
How to use this list and the coming lists: forward it on to a board member, your lead pastor, or just a family that loves ya. If you have money at the end of the year, purchase things from this list as a way to build up the resources for your youth ministry.
Here is this years youth pastor gift guide: technology

BenQ W1080ST 1080p 3D Short Throw DLP Home Theater Projector :http://amzn.to/160ntIH – Short throw projectors are made for youth ministry.
