Mission and young people
Been catching up on some reading with a view to writing some stuff.
"Young people and Mission" edited by David & Alison Booker arrived recently.
It's quite a good little volume, the chapters on relating to other faiths and uniformed organisations were especially helpful in the way they put stuff (and relating to some questions I get asked).
It's not a challenging or in depth volume if you've done much thinking around missiology and stuff, but it would be a good place for youth workers, payed or volunteers to start.

This quote appealed to me:
"Youth wokers need not only to focus on the young people they serve, but also to be advocates for change in the wider church so that young people can feel welcomed and accepted there without needing to learn a new culture first"
