Book Reviews of Revisiting Relational Youth Ministry: From a Strategy of Influence to a Theology of Incarnation

Book Review: if you liked "hurt"
Summary: 5 Stars

If you liked Chap Clark's "Hurt: Inside the World of Today's Teenagers" or are just looking to get away from a ministry where you feel like you are trying to "sell" teens Jesus, this is an amazing book. Root gives a great history of the development of adolescence and how youth ministry has grown during that time, then takes a look at the faults of "relational ministry" before focusing in on the theology and practicals of incarnational ministry with adolescents. Although this is not a quick read (it will give you plenty to chew on) EVERYONE in ministry should read this. I would put it in my top three of youth ministry books, and I've read a lot!
