Youth Ministry and Theological Shorthand

Meer over het boek

The dialogue between practice and theological education in youth ministry is the focal point of this qualitative study. David Bailey reveals how youth ministers use "theological shorthand" to communicate their experiences and beliefs, which fosters meaningful connections and long-term commitment to their work. However, this shorthand also presents challenges, as it may disconnect youth ministry from the broader Christian narrative. The exploration highlights both the significance and the risks involved in this unique communication style within the context of youth ministry.
