INTENSIVE CLASSES : GO DEEPER

MORE THAN BEING YOUNG, COOL AND RELEVANT

you - UNDERSTAND_ |_NEXT CLASS: MAR. 5-7, 2012

9:00am - 4:00pm each day.

Culture is changing at an alarming pace.  Can you keep up?  We will teach you new perspectives in adolescent culture, developmental and sociological issues facing teens, ministry to teenage girls, the realities of postmodernism and why urban and multicultural issues affect all ministry settings.

Youth ministry requires more than being young and cool; it demands leaders who can communicate the gospel into a rapidly changing culture. We will help you ask crucial leadership questions: How immersed in their culture do I need to be for my ministry to be effective?   Why does youth ministry shape the entire congregation?  How do you love teenagers right where they are, but have the courage to challenge the very culture that is distracting them from the gospel? + EMAIL QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS CLASS
