A vision for biblical roots for sustainable yet culturally relevant youth work.
Journey through the Bible together and look at some solid principles for youth ministry.
Each chapter will draw out an essential principle from a group of biblical books. None of these principles will be new to the reader. However, by developing each of them clearly and then placing them together, begin to rediscover the boundary lines for what youth ministry should be doing.
