Youth Ministry Crash Course!, A

Youth ministry fundamentals at your fingertips! Or call it a light-hearted primer to a serious subject. A Youth Ministry Crash Course is 150 to-the-point entries on issues you face every week -- topics that are described, simplified, illustrated, and occasionally tweaked by a couple of veteran youth workers who've acquired a pragmatic streak alongside their compassion for teenagers. Inside you'll find shrewd insight with a wry twist: - On Curricula: 'You know your kids better than some editor working away in a cubical somewhere. Change material to suit your group, and chuck what doesn't fly.' - On Recycling: 'Students cycle in and out of your youth group every three or four years -- so recycle your program themes and events that often too.' On Rules: 'Never make one when you're tired or ticked off.' - On Sacred Cows: ' Learn what they are and keep your kids away from them -- you'll add longevity to your job. E.g., no pew hurdling in the million-dollar sanctuary during youth night. - On Spiritual Growth: 'The kid that grows the fastest may not grow the deepest. Don't overlook the one who grows slowly but steadily.' Whether you're new to youth ministry, a Sunday school teacher of junior or senior highers, a volunteer, or a veteran with a novice staff -- in Crash Course you'll find instructions, motivation, and reminders of what the glorious, hectic calling of youth ministry is all about.
