In this town I live in, it is hard to find a youth group that is truly all about God.In the past 3 years I seem to have fallen far from Christ when I used to be very close.But my friends say they can still feel Him through me.They ask me to preach to them and help direct them.The churches here are about money (like at a youth group offering asking if someone has 200$ to put in) and churches that are just hang out that don't preach and worship at all.My friends enjoy the music and I listen to and say we should start our own "Mini-Youth group" I love this idea as I want to be a Pastor but I don't know where to start and being to help all these people now coming to me about it.

sounds like you have a ministry going, even if it isn't official. God isn't about rules or money. it's about loving each other and glorifying Him with our lives and efforts.
maybe start meeting with these friends and rotate doing bible lessons with everyone leading at some point. then do all the neat things that you all enjoy. trust me - your little light and their little lights will be radiant as the sun as you grow in your faith and in your relationships with others...

Start with prayer. The Good Lord will lead you where you need to go. He has apparently lead you to this youth group. Don't doubt yourself now.
God Bless

Get your help directly from God.Read your 1611 AV and know biblical doctrine before you start telling people what they should believe.Tell them what Jesus says.Have a youth group in someone's home.Maybe someone has a finished rec. room in their basenent.http://www.lasttrumpetministries.org/2007/December2007.html

If you would love to become a pastor then dedicate yourself to preaching the Gospel. If God wants you to become a pastor, then He will make you one.
