Join the conversation as experts propose, defend, and explore Four Views of Youth Ministry and the Church.In a dialog that often gets downright feisty, four youth ministry academicians delineate their distinct philosophical and ecclesiological views regarding how youth ministry relates to the church at large--and leave a taste of what’s profound and what’s not in these four typologies:Inclusive congregational (Malan Nel). What happens when a church thoroughly integrates its adolescents, making them full partners in every aspect of congregational life?Preparatory (Wesley Black). Why and how should a church consider its teenagers as disciples-in-training and its youth ministry a school of preparation for future participation in church life?Missional (Chap Clark). What does a church look like, whose youth ministry does not necessarily nurture "church kids" but is essentially evangelistic? Whose youths and youth workers are considered missionaries?Strategic (Mark Senter). How feasible is it for a youth ministry to become a new church on its own--the youth pastor becoming the pastor, and the new church planted with the blessing of the mother church?In Four View of Your Ministry and the Church, solid academic writing and an inviting tone and design create a compelling text for both in-the-field, practicing youth workers and undergraduates and graduate students.

Churches today face unique challenges as they seek to help young people engage with the Christian faith and youth workers, whether employed or volunteer, play a key role in supporting this process. This book provides a comprehensive overview of Christian youth work, drawing together practice, theory and theology in a format which is both engaging and informative. Serving as both a text and workbook, it brings together key youth ministry thinkers and grass-roots practitioners to explore significant themes and issues. It will be invaluable to those thinking about youth work at a strategic level as well as youth work practitioners. Each of the sixteen chapters is followed by a response written from a different perspective, modelling reflective practice and theological reflection. Topics covered include mission, church, adolescent identity, appropriate relationships, spiritual practices, youth culture, pastoral care, work with families, education, leadership and management, inclusive youth work, theology, lifelong learning, ethical dilemmas and the Kingdom of God.

Understanding youth culture in a particular time and place is one of the foundation stones upon which youth leaders build a youth ministry. Christian education, according to Richards, is the teaching and learning of Christian faith as culture--the reshaping of personalities into the image of Christ. The thesis of this book is that youth ministry must be viewed as youth and adults involved together in Scripture, in a body-of-Christ relationship, and in life. Richards shows what is involved in each of these elements as well as how to organize and program a ministry that, through such involvement, will lead young people to Christian maturity.

Models For Youth Ministry written by Steve Griffiths and has been published by SPCK this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013-05-16 with Religion categories.

This book explores models for youth ministry from the life and ministry of Christ. This area of study has become fossilised because youth workers rely too heavily on the notion of 'incarnational' or 'relational' youth ministry. This leads them to believe that they must spend huge amounts of time with young people in order to 'earn the right' to share the gospel with them. The author argues that this foundation for youth ministry is inadequate and impractical and that it is not how Jesus himself operated. He proposes a broader Christology as a foundation for youth ministry today. Each chapter includes study questions for individuals or groups.

Pop worship music. Falling in love with Jesus. Mission trips. Wearing jeans and T-shirts to church. Spiritual searching and church hopping. Faith-based political activism. Seeker-sensitive outreach. These now-commonplace elements of American church life all began as innovative ways to reach young people, yet they have gradually become accepted as important parts of a spiritual ideal for all ages. What on earth has happened? In The Juvenilization of American Christianity Thomas Bergler traces the way in which, over seventy-five years, youth ministries have breathed new vitality into four major American church traditions -- African American, Evangelical, Mainline Protestant, and Roman Catholic. Bergler shows too how this "juvenilization" of churches has led to widespread spiritual immaturity, consumerism, and self-centeredness, popularizing a feel-good faith with neither intergenerational community nor theological literacy. Bergler s critique further offers constructive suggestions for taming juvenilization. Watch the trailer:

"The potential of Christian youth is unlimited. This incredible potential calls for a deeper understanding of their needs and problems, and a biblical, Christ-centered, and Spirit-empowered ministry to them. With this in mind, the editors have drawn upon the expertise of knowledgeable and successful youth leaders from all over the country to present basic plans, programs, and ideas to aid in ministry to youth. The objective of this book is to enable one to build a biblical philosophy of youth work. It stresses that the major thrust of youth ministry should not be on problem solving but on helping youth to become aware of the possibilities found in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Many areas of outreach to young people are discussed including Sunday school, weekday clubs, camping, and recreational activities. Advice is offered concerning ways to choose sponsors and leaders. Here is a unique and comprehensive resource tool dealing with all aspects of youth ministry-- an important book for youth pastors and those involved in youth work."--Jacket.

Starting Right: Thinking Theologically About Youth Ministry is the first academic textbook that introduces youth ministry students (whether undergraduate or graduate level) to a marriage of solid research, real life, and accessible design. Whereas most college-level texts may reflect a thorough (though impenetrable) mastery of the field, they tend to expect readers to plow through unnecessarily thick prose and bland design because “it’s good for them.” Youth Specialties doesn’t agree. In this debut title to a continuing academic book line, college and seminary students will be introduced to real-life research, real-life youth ministry dilemmas, and real-life solutions.Contributing writers represent a spectrum of Christian Education thought and practice, as well as widespread recognition in their field...transdenominational, yet the perfect background to ministry in any denomination or ministry organizationThis text includes thorough indexes, design, and graphics that compel readers from page to page (now that’s a first for a college text!); organization that permits professors to use any part of the text, in any order, rather than plod through the entire book from beginning to end; a perfect primary text that gives students a rich, academic, and readable (though not “popular”) grasp of every aspect of youth ministry a typical Intro course touches, while also serving as an ideal secondary text.

Today, changes are occurring at a rapid pace in our society, and some changes are staring at us in the face. Why are Christians depending on others to do God's work? There is a need out there, and it is with our youth. We are in a generation that has left our youth in a precarious position—broken homes from divorce, stepfathers and stepmothers raising children, single parents, grandparents raising their grandchildren, foster homes, children living out of suitcases, and children raising children. Where are the leaders, and where are the Christians? Mentoring Youth in Action is dedicated to filling the void that has been imposed upon our youth. Author Mark Stiles has developed a unique, easily taught curriculum for youth, with one-of-a-kind illustrations. This seven-session course is a balanced presentation of content and application designed to assist youth in understanding how God can help them to cope with the challenges facing each of them. It is important not to overload students with content, but instead show them the relevance of further study of God's work, as well as how to apply what they've learned to their own lives.
