Theological reflection

I have been prepping some lectures on theological reflection and one of the keys is in slowing down the process to ensure we dont allow the preconceived ideas or traditions (our conditioning) to over ride the process. Thinking about a model to help students work on journals I have come up with this so far.the-reflection-processUp Periscope download

Particpation and teenagers

Youthblog posted this link to a teenagers report on technology as part of their work experience. Whilst i am sure the student was motivated which i guess from the fact that the placement was with Morgan Stanley, it make think about how little we expect from young people generally in terms of participation and leadership in youth work and church.

FYT conferences used to keep me going when i just started out in youth work in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Meeting with like minded people working with young people on the edge was an important part of maintaining sanity and hearing stories encouraging. Now FYT have teamed up with Worth Unlimited East to West and Church urban Fund and The Living Well trust to put this on. Go HERE No Country for Old Men move I Can’t Think Straight move

An opportunity to shape the new programme to develop young people’s workforce

CWDC is holding 11 regional consultations and an online consultation to give those who work with young people the opportunity to shape the next stages of a £25m programme. The programme, managed by the Children’s Workforce Network and led by CWDC, covers the young people’s workforce aspects of Aiming High for Young People*.
The programme aims to strengthen leadership and management through training programmes for up to 300 strategic leaders, 5,000 frontline managers and 150 emerging leaders; to build capacity in the third sector; and create a common platform of skills which includes the Youth Professional Status.

It is also about promoting greater cohesion and consistency in the way the workforce works with each other and with young people.
“We now want to fully involve everyone in the sector at all levels and listen to their views on how best to move forward with the programme.
“These consultations will be the ideal opportunity for people for those who work with young people to shape and be part of developing a world-class workforce which will meet the demands of the 21st century.”
