This week on Youth Group Chronicles, Sam is joined by Buddy Jenkins and Mackenzie Smolin for an episode packed with youth ministry moments that went completely off the rails. A youth camp’s growing goose problem inspires a group of students to take matters into their own hands in “Silence of the Geese,” leading to a solution no leader could have possibly approved. Plus, a worship song gets taken way too literally, a harmless volleyball challenge ends in damage control, a church lock-in leaves behind a disgusting secret, and a staff member’s summer camp tradition goes painfully wrong. From an awkward interview answer and a case of mistaken identity to ghosts, Crocs, and a student claiming to be Jesus, this episode is another reminder that you never really know what’s going to happen in youth ministry.
