Youth Groups - Then vs. Now
Комедия
Either way, we're all listening to the Newsboys!
As two guys who both grew up loving our youth group (and eventually both worked in youth ministry for a season!), this video was all-too-easy to write. Hope you all enjoy!

As a millennial, now I really want that vintage Prince of Egypt doll! lol
It's the commitment for me on Brad's Cha-cha-slide! The energy!
Honestly, you should talk to you parents and ask what youth group was like in the 70’s. 😊

That would be Awesome, or the 80's. I've always been curious about that subject; Youth group in the 80's/70's!
So true. I have two youth leaders at my church, one older and one younger. This basically summed up my entire youth group experience. Keep the new content coming!
Jake: When Sheltered Kid tries to dance.
I literally laughed out loud (several times) at this one! 😂😂 About to watch it again for the 5th time and then forward to friends!
I'm impressed by Brad's moves!
" Do you have unlimited texts?" Me then: After 7PM. 😂Ending with the zoom in of the Prince of Egypt doll- HILARIOUS; The absolute best ending!🤣🤣🤣
Their dancing segments are hilarious!!! Love it!!!! 😂😂😂😂
I almost peed myself!😂 You two and your dancing moves KILL me❗😅😅
All that dancing reminded me of a itch that you can't scratch so you shake like crazy until you feel relief 😂😂😂😂
You had me at the WOW Cd reference!! As a Christian, we knew what songs were in what color CD cover 😂 AND don't try to hide the casual PAN to the Prince of Egypt 😂😂😂😂😂!!!
As a Catholic these remind me of my Sunday School classes this is hilarious the great work you guys just make me laugh all the time😂
Arranging the chairs in a circle for a game and then back to rows afterwards
Youth groups back in the day will win for me everytime. Take us back, please.
You both were in your lane for this video! Love it!😂
Christians vs vaccinated!! 😂😂😂😂

Yooooo you mentioned “I kissed dating goodbye.” That book ruined how I view women / dating. Glad it can be poked fun of today.

I flipped through it after I had been married to see what it was about. 🤷🏼♀️ A valuable life lesson I was taught was to not take one resource and make it the center of my universe. It’s sad to me that many people have such negative reviews, but I truly do see the value in not dating around. I was taught about courtship since I was little and I’ve watched many people go through it successfully. 🤷🏼♀️

Yeah I read that book when I was still a Christian in my 20s and it even seemed a little too restrictive and "let God find them for you" even then. Now that I'm not a Christian I think it's actively harmful.

Hey Jake, was at the Tucson show and saw you and Trey. Made my night! :) love y'all.
I grew up with the youth pastors then, so imagining the youth pastors now is absolutely wild lol
Nailed my youth group experiences
Haha Brad, your commitment to the cha cha was amazing!
Stellar job guys!
I remember one time we had a scavenger hunt/race around town, just split up into 6-7 groups that drove around and had to video different things off a sheet. I remember one was to go into burger kind and ask for a Big Mac because their slogan is have it your way. When we got back we watched everyone’s videos.... fun activity, but wildly dangerous in hindsight

As a person who was in youth groups, and now teaches a youth group, that “I Kissed Dating Goodbye” bit was way too accurate.

I Kissed Dating Goodbye was everywhere when I was in middle and high school. Is that not a thing anymore? I always thought it was kinda messed up, so I'm glad Jake's character was implying that it's not pushed on kids now.

Well done- again! Thank you
I was part of the Chacha slide generation. Before everyone had cellphones but after everyone had an email. My son is the now generation. This made me laugh so hard because of all the truth.
How appropriate that I got a Chick Fil A ad before this video. Love your videos Jean Shorts.
This skit is priceless beyond imagination. Pretty much a documentary. Intentionally funny by being unintentionally funny.
You two are GREAT❗️❗️❗️❗️
Youth group was some of the best days of my life!
Not me literally just getting back from San Francisco with my church🙈
As someone who was in youth group in the ‘90s, this seems more like “Now vs. Slightly Earlier Than Now” to me.
🤣🤣🤣 the whole video was hilarious, that dancing tho got me 😂😂
When we ran through the streets to do scavenger hunts at stranger's houses.
So good!
I like how the whole vid was just filmed in the podcast studio
Oh man being in charge of the slides for the over head projector for praise and worship was a call back to my past that hit me straight in the funny bone 😂
This is excellent
Love you guys! From Kyrgyzstan 😂😂😂❤❤❤
"Do you have unlimited text?" WOW that took me back
The San Francisco comment had me dying. The generational gap with "I kissed dating goodbye" is real. You will absolutely be seeing Millennials telling the younger generation to not read that book.

😂Serious youth group flash backs! 😮God bless the leaders. It’s not easy. But can have an enormous impact on kids and families.
loved the dancing 🕺🤩
And here I am waiting for the electric slide! 😂
Cha cha slide was the best. So good guys! TY
As a "then" youth grouper, all I can think about now is that Prince of Egypt action figure! I need one!
The cha cha slide was hilarious. Lol.
So excited I made the throwback names list! Far less Courtneys these days!
The dancing from both of u just really made me laugh.
The dance breaks were perfect!
😂😂😂😂 the NOW names were funny
Being a youth pastor myself these days. The cringe moments for the teens is when I use one or two of their “words” sus, bet. Lit😂😂😂 I bring the old school dance moves in and they go for it.
I just started going to youth group. Yesterday, they had a talent show and I won 4th by playing Freebird. I'm not sure if that is more like your "then" or "now" but it was a good time.
I could watch a video of just cha-cha slide and griddy-ing (or however the heck it’s spelled) 😂😂😂
So many hilarious lines 😂
Hilarious! Thank you
Omg you guys. I’m laughing so hard
I love when Jake tries to do the dances 😂😂
Jake is actually a good dancer.
The WOW cd lol yeah baby!!!!
Hot daaawg, Sunny got a shout out!
"WOW C.D." was something I never knew I forgot
Bigger and Better was the bomb! My team once ended up with an exercise bike within 5 houses. We were also given a beer at the 2nd house.
😆 we went on church work trip to San Francisco and performed a musical called "Revival"... Yessss 👏lol!
The Big Daddy Weave got me dying
Why does the “then” leader look fun, and the “now” leader just look ridiculous? 😂
So, so funny!
Impressive moves! 😂😂😂
"your lulu leggings are to reaveing"!! hahah that is so real

@@naebang2013 Oh every good youth group kid read it in the 90’s. I understand why our generation of parents thought it was a good idea, but sadly what ended up happening was a bunch of us getting married way to young (I was 17) and having horrible marriages. 😢 Very happy they added the “don’t read it” part!! My kids have heard me tell them 1,000 times not to get married young. Lol.
