She is an author, speaker, podcaster, mother, and now empty-nester. 6:30 Ganel-Lyn hosts a PMG, (Preach My Gospel) group in her home led by the youth. What is it? How can people start it? 7:30 How did the PMG group start? It was an amazing success and grew quickly. Very authentic and spirit led teaching. 14:30 It’s not just a mission-prep class, it’s a life-prep class. Open to anybody because Preach My Gospel helps you develop all sorts of skills. 16:30 If you want to start a group like this it can be once a month or even once a week. 18:10 Why would kids want to go to these meetings? It’s not like your normal church meeting. 18:40 The adults have to get out of the way. 20:00 What does home-centered feel like and why is it different from having a church meeting? These meetings are not strictly Preach My Gospel but a place to have vulnerable conversations about hard topics and addictions. Youth can show up in sweats if they want. 22:50 The rule is that the Spirit interrupts. 23:40 The structure of the PMG meetings. Review the rules and introduce who is new, announce new mission calls, kids that are leaving on a mission always giving a closing testimony and are sent off with the hymn, "God Be with You Till We Meet Again". They start a song and kneel in family prayer at the end. 24:15 Teaching the youth what it feels like to have to the Spirit lead the meeting is powerful. You don’t know how to teach it until you experience it. It might be difficult at first but the adults need to stay out of the way and let the youth learn through it. 26:00 It is not Ganel-Lyn and her husband’s calling to have these meetings. They felt inspired to do it. 29:00 The sweet spot for these meetings is age 16 and older. Missionaries and returned missionaries also come. It helps returned missionaries transition back into life. 31:30 This is a non-stress meeting. You don’t have to have treats or a formal lesson planned. 32:00 Ganel-Lyn and her husband were also called by the stake to teach mission prep classes but she noticed that it wasn’t the same as having the home-centered PMG group. 35:00 Have real life conversations that are connected to the gospel of Jesus Christ. They shouldn’t be two separate things. The PMG magic is the gospel and real life in action. It’s not adult-pushed or calling-pushed. 36:40 They use Groupme to communicate with the youth and the youth are over it. 40:30 Finding a youth member to be the facilitator. If you don’t have one you can rotate. 42:50 What if the topic takes a left turn? Do you step in? 45:00 Oversharing is not actually a thing. Something in you might be triggered but for other people it’s fine. It’s ok for it to be awkward. We need to create a safe place for people to open up. 52:00 You can do these meetings in your way and for your needs. Just create a safe place.
