You have student leaders in your youth group. But are they leading others in the same direction you are? Are they leading others to follow hard after Jesus?
Servant leadership teams are vital for healthy, focused student ministries. Students long to be called to something greater than themselves. Why else do you think they invest countless hours into athletic teams, musical groups, etc.? But what is greater than the call of Jesus to follow him? In Basic Training and Servant Team, students will not only develop essential leadership skills, but they will also be challenged to live out their leadership roles as servants within the church, the community, and the world. It is my hope that when students complete Basic Training and Servant Team, they will be equipped as leaders, engaged as servants, and empowered to answer the call of Jesus on their lives.
The main focus of the servant ministry is based on these truths:
• The Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20)
• The Greatest Commandment (Matthew 22:34-40)
• The heart of Jesus (Luke 4:14-21, Matthew 5-7, Matthew 25:31-46)
• The example of Jesus (John 13:1-17, Philippians 2:1-18)
• The call of Jesus (Acts 1:8)
When we challenge students to high expectations, they WILL meet them! Servant leadership teams provide the challenge, the accountability, and ultimately the vision that student leaders can connect with as well as opportunities for students to make a difference in their world!

I think that one part that you are missing with your "expectations rant" :) is that you have to expect and inspect. Without inspection, there is no way that we can have high expectations because there is no way to know whether we are meeting them or not.
I love what is happening on the blog. Good stuff posted!
