An Introduction to Youth Ministry

My hope is for all those youth ministers, present and future, who read this book, to catch a vision of inclusive youth ministry that is with youth, parents of youth, all volunteer leaders with youth, and other church staff members. Further, that such a youth ministry, biblically grounded and resident in the family of God called church, will be able to carry out Christ's command to “make disciples of all the nations.”
We can faithfully participate in all the joys, victories, challenges, disappointments, and successes of youth ministry because Jesus is “with (us) always, even to the end of the age” (Matt. 28:20).
This is the original version of An Introduction to Youth Ministry that was first published in 1991.
