Resources

I was lucky enough to join lots of other Youth For Christ Trustees at one of the YFC Focus days in the summer and got some great deals on some of their new and older resources. The resource library is now a proud owner of all of the after school club kit Crux, RE resource exploRE, a few copies of Uncut, which is a discipleship course with an edge (especially good for those with no experience of church) and an upgraded The Art of Connecting which is a fantastic resource for helping young people share their faith with others. If you’re looking at the new term and wondering where to get some inspiration, how about the fabulous playing cards from schoolswork.co.uk? These are useable as normal playing cards but also contain icebreaking questions about you, others, the world and beliefs. I have a couple of sets to borrow and Emma also has some for the Primary school age. I also have a set of their artcards which use images created by young people to help you reflect on the meaning of life. Some of the images are fun and others are more challenging. There’s also a lesson pack to go with the art cards and ten ideas for using the playing cards which you can download from their website.
