What would it take to build a ministry that withstands the roller coaster ride that has become so much a part of “normal” youth ministry?

He then provides the practical tools and strategies needed to lay a strong foundation for your church’s youth ministry-one that isn’t built solely on a person or a program. In these pages he offers indispensible guidance for:

Building a sustainable youth ministry is not easy, and it’s not quick.
