Welcome to Youth Ministry

‘Youth ministry serves young people with the word of God, centred on and shaped by the gospel, so that young people believe the gospel and become disciple-making disciples of Jesus.’

This is Graham Stanton’s beautiful vision for youth ministry. But what might it mean for you, your church and the youth there?

Graham has been discipling young people for decades, training other Christians to do the same for nearly as long, and he wants to hand new and potential youth leaders the principles and practices they will need to begin well and continue heading in the right direction.

In Welcome to Youth Ministry he warmly invites interested Christians in, helps them decide if youth ministry is for them by introducing them to what it means and requires, then outlines the mindset and skills needed for doing it well for God’s glory.

You don’t need a theology degree, years of discipleship experience or the latest slang. If you love Jesus and young people, and you want to know how to share Jesus with young people and help them grow in their faith, this book is for you.
