Welcome to Youth Ministry: The WHY and HOW of Serving Young People with the Word of God

‘Youth ministry serves young people with the word of God, centred on
and shaped by the gospel, so that young people believe the gospel and
become disciple-making disciples of Jesus.’
This is Graham Stanton’s beautiful vision for youth ministry. But what might
it mean for you, your church and the youth there?
Graham has been discipling young people for decades, training other
Christians to do the same for nearly as long, and he wants to hand new
and potential youth leaders the principles and practices they will need
to begin well and continue heading in the right direction. In Welcome to
Youth Ministry he warmly invites interested Christians in, helps them decide
if youth ministry is for them by introducing them to what it means and
requires, then outlines the mindset and skills needed for doing it well for
God’s glory.
You don’t need a theology degree, years of discipleship experience or the
latest slang. If you love Jesus and young people, and you want to know
how to share Jesus with young people and help them grow in their faith,
this book is for you.Read less
