The Principles of Youth Ministry

“This generation may be thoughtful, even hungry, but they are also cynical and cautious. They have been lied to…They will vigorously reject anything that smacks of hype or cliché. We have to walk alongside [them] slowly and sensitively to gain a hearing.” Jock McGregor

Walk in their shoes Jesus did Philippians 2:6-8 “…taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness”

Walk in their shoes  Hebrews 4:15, “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin.”

Walk in their shoes [ Get involved with them [ Build meaningful relationships

Be unconditional The process takes time

TRADITIONAL PATHWAY » behave » believe » belong

ALTERNATIVE PATHWAY » belong » believe » behave

Be unconditional Don’t just tell them about God’s love… show them “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.”

Be relevant Communicate the gospel in a culturally appropriate manner Don’t change the gospel, maybe change the packaging

“On us particularly rests the responsibility of reshaping with boldness and wisdom the means that are most suitable and effective for communicating the Gospel message to the men and women of our times.” Pope Paul 6th Study the culture. Know your target.

Provide opportunities for response to God Particularly weekend away Work with God
