Story5 out of 5 stars 1
As ministry leaders continue to look at the research, one thing is clear: What happens at home is more impactful than what happens at church. Not that the church doesn’t matter, it just means we need to look at what we do at church differently. Spiritual convictions, for better or worse, will most always pass from parent to child and not pastor to child. Yet, many churches are still following a model of ministry that places the spiritual growth of kids and teens primarily on the shoulders of the ministry leaders and not on the parents.

Whether you’re a Christian parent, youth leader, or educator who works with Generation Z, this book was written for you. As powerful ideas in our increasingly secular culture shape more of this generation, trusted leaders must share what they know about Jesus in ways that will reach them. But how? Backed by the latest research and first hand experience, this powerful book shows how to share biblical truth with a generation that desperately needs to hear it in a way that draws them in instead of pushing them away.

Pornography may seem inescapable, but God can free us from its destructive power. The gospel replaces the dehumanizing lies of pornography with this surprising truth: God created us as royalty. How then can we reclaim our God-given identity to take a stand against - and ultimately starve - the predatory porn industry? In The Death of Porn, Ray Ortlund writes six personal letters, as from a father to his son.

Many seek reassurance or perceived unity by creating doctrinal statements, but that misses the point. Doctrine is necessary, but it is not the solution. In his new book Until Unity, New York Times best-selling author Francis Chan tells listeners that the real problem is shallow or even nonexistent love for each other. Although the Bible commands unity, some will resist these unifying efforts. We see it every day. We have to hate sin, love truth, and pursue unity for the church.

Publisher's Summary
Youth ministry is an essential part of most evangelical churches. And yet, there is a surprising lack of resources written specifically for youth workers focused on viewing all aspects of youth ministry through a gospel-focused lens. Featuring contributions from a host of experienced youth workers from a wide variety of churches, this how-to manual offers guidance related to every facet of youth ministry, from planning short-term mission trips to working with parents. Theologically rooted yet eminently practical, this handbook will equip youth leaders to effectively shepherd the young people under their care - training them to live faithfully in their homes, churches, and schools.

A Youth Ministry Must-Read!
This book does a marvelous job of imparting timeless wisdom about youth ministry rather than following the fads that come and go. it is balanced, deep, and practical all at once. Every youth pastor or leader would benefit from reading or listening to it at least once, but it's worth keeping around in print for reference and in audio for convenience. The narrators humanize parts of the text that might go by too quickly in print to sink in properly, though one or two chapters felt a tad mechanical. The content was more than enough to make up for it, though. The biggest thing I appreciated was that each chapter grounded practice in Scripture, thoughtfully taking the time to give the divine commands behind core youth ministry practices. Very helpful! One small irritation: not all pastors are men, and I hope that subsequent editions use more gender inclusive language when speaking of pastors, especially since this seems to be aimed at a broad cross section of Christianity, rather than a particular denomination.
