What's the key to a dynamic youth ministry? If you are a youth worker, you're probably grasping for activities to compete with Internet use, peer clusters, shopping, sports, and every things else that crowds the teen world. You may be following a popular model of youth ministry.

But effective work with youth needs more. It also requires a keen awareness of what's going on in postmodern youth culture - and a compelling biblical vision that speaks directly to that culture.

This resource offers both. Loewen urges us to ground youth ministry in God's reign, which contrasts with the consumerism and alienation of today's adolescent story. At the heart of this "contrast culture" are a relationship with a God who is lovingly involved in our world; a community where youth and adults connect meaningfully and follow Christ together; a discipleship that includes compassionate service; and a conviction that God's future has invaded the present.
