Welcome to the New YouthPartnersNET Website.

They tell us it's a good thing to mix it up from time to time. So we're mixing it up with a new web design and more importantly new ways to help and serve our ministry partners around the country with materials, resources, insights, advice, and tools they need to grow and sustain their frontline ministries.

I hope you will visit often and I'll do my best to write often. Lots of resources, ideas, stories, come across my desk and I'll do my best to pass those along. That's part of why we're here to make your job easier. I firmly believe we don't need to "reinvent the wheel". And when you find great resources or ideas to share with the YPN network, please write a post here.

And if you're in Denver or wherever we may be on the road, let's get together for a cup of coffee. That's what I'm doing right now "at my desk" waiting for my first appointment inside the REI Starbucks here in downtown Denver along the banks of the Platte & Confluence rivers. A lot of us urban leaders hang out here to meet since it is so close to the freeway, downtown and centrally located, plus free parking.

Blessings to all of you and may the Lord lead you and guide you and give you peace.
