Youth Ministry

Thirsty for the Reign: A Kingdom Theology for Youth Ministry, Part One by Wendell Loewen.

This is really good article about Student Ministry and how societal trends affect how we minister to youth. It talks about Postmodernism, but unlike most articles it states that although Postmodernism is a challenge to the way that we minister, it also offers us new ways to reach people for Christ.

As a Student Pastor I am always looking at the culture in which my students live and wondering what I must do to see them claimed for Christ. The Postmodern generation is vastly becoming a major voice in the world, but until we show them how the Gospel is relevant to their lives they will never be the dynamic world changing force that they can be.
