The necessity of youth ministry?
Some interesting thoughts on the need and place for youth ministry being batted around the blogs.
Caleb posts here reflecting on some reading of "Four views of youth ministry and the church", and Calvin responds here (thanks to the guys at rethinking youth ministry for the links).
At the moment I'm thinking that youth ministry needs to be: intentional yet connected to church, in touch with youth culture but not enamoured with it, missional and real. There is a place for separate groups, yet that should not be all.

Hi! Nice to see someone from this side of the pond! And the right side of London too! We've had a vibrant youth ministry in out church but are without a worker at present, and a vicar!
