My Top 10 Youth Camp Tips For Youth Pastors' Wives

Let’s be real—youth camp is one of the most powerful, exhausting, overwhelming, and amazing things we get to be part of as youth pastors' wives. But if you’re already feeling stressed just thinking about packing, schedules, and the nonstop chaos, you’re not alone.

 

The good news? You don’t have to just survive camp—you can actually thrive in it.

 

In today’s episode, I’m sharing my top 10 practical (and spiritual) tips to help you show up prepared, peaceful, and maybe even slightly less sweaty. We’re talking about everything from setting expectations with your husband before the madness starts, to packing a “mom bag” that could rival a CVS aisle, to sneaking in a few quiet moments with Jesus (yes, it’s possible).

 

I’ll even tell you why earplugs might just be your new best friend—and why laughing at the chaos is one of the holiest things you can do.

 

So if you’re ready to feel more peaceful and less panicky about camp, grab your coffee and your snacks and let’s dive in!
