why 'youth ministers'

as i have come to understand the role of the church within the youth ministry i have come to see that the role of 'minister' is not just for a staff person with the masses being 'volunteers' or 'adults.' you are ministers and the youth ministry of first umc of hendersonville is your ministry. so two quick thoughts.

  1. the minister and their ministry. this is something that you are committed to. it is where you have searched your Christian faith experience and God has placed you.
  2. a minister is more than just a body. you are entrusted to use the gifts given to you to help; teach, nuture, converse, support, dream, evangelize with the youth to lay foundations for their; grace, wisdom, faith, spiritual practices, theology, & Christology.
