Church Leadership & Ministry
“Dan is a practitioner, not merely a theorist. He is no armchair strategist. He is on the front line of reaching this generation. This is a practical book. However, it moves beyond merely presenting methodology to addressing fundamental issues. The book offers a biblically based approach to ministry but clearly states there is not one way to do ministry. Some of what is presented is new and innovative. Then, Dan breathes new life into a centuries-old method of communing with God.”
The Youth Worker's Guide to Helping Teenagers in Crisis
Children & Youth
“This book presents the dark side of youth ministry. It is the under-belly of our youth groups. It is the messy, complicated and uncomfortable side of life. Rich and Jim are tackling some difficult subjects in this book. This book will be a valuable tool that will not remain on the shelf but will draw you back to it year after year. You’ll gain insights and practical advice on how to minister to hurting students. You will learn how to build relationships, how to reach out, how to lend a caring hand and a listening ear. These situations presented in the book offer opportunities to come along side students in crisis. The book is filled with real life stories that you will identify with. I highly recommend it.”
