CMIN 683 - Topics in Youth Ministry


3 hours
In order to expose students to some of the core issues facing youth ministry today, this course explores the variety of ways that youth ministry is finding expression in the contemporary climate, as well as discussing the theological implications of each. The topics discussed will include a look at redefining youth leadership; what it means to tend to the souls of students, while at the same time tending to one’s own personal soul care; what the church expectations on youth ministry are and how that matches with Biblical expectations of the minister; a redefinition of local church programming; and what practices can and should be shaping the youth pastor and youth ministry.
