A general principle for youth ministry

If no one wants to work on a project/event/activity it doesn't need to be done.  
  • Whether they've always done it or whether you like it and want them to try it is not meaningful. 
  • This is also a good way to kill a bad idea without being a bad guy. 
    • You don't have to argue against it. 
    • Just wait and if it gets selected by the group, then ask who'll be in charge.  The kids are smart enough not to volunteer to do something they can't do. 
    • If someone volunteers and pulls it off you've learned something.
