199 Engaging with LAUGHTER!
Manage episode 413030438 series 1256186
Having fun with students is hard work... Gettting students to laugh along with you and/or making them smile is even harder!
Why does it matter? When you get students to laugh or smile it raises their IQ levels... no joke! According a study, it makes a person 31% smarter. When you make someone smarter, they feel better about themselves... and about you.
That’s why you hear most public communicators tell a joke or a funny story. They are engaging the crowd. They are winning the crowd over. Youth Workers have to win the crowd over every time they meet with students. It’s not a one time thing... it’s an every time thing.
The Apostle Paul said that, “Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible… I have become all things to all people, so that by all possible means I might save some. I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessing.” - 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 NIV
We laugh with them and engage with them, so that they might hear what we need them to hear!
