Growing Up
Biblical Youth Ministry in the Local Church
Description
What should be the building blocks on which we establish Christian youth ministry in the local church? We should try to build a community where you people can become Christians, grow as Christians, live as Christians and serve as Christians.
At a time when young people are living increasingly stressful, pressurised lives, and leaving the church in droves, making disciples of the younger generation may seem a daunting task. But in Growing Up, Dave Fenton explores the whole area of effective youth ministry, providing inspiration and wisdom gleaned from years of experience, as well as offering helpful and realistic, practical advice.
We must help our young people 'grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ' (2 Peter 3:18). Then they will be able to 'shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life' (Phil 2:15,16).
A 'must' for anyone working with young people who has a heart to see them grow as true followers of Christ.
