ramblings on family ministry
Published Friday, February 03, 2006 by Jason Retherford | E-mail this post
Moving in the direction of family friendly youth ministry is not an easy task. It seems these days that there is a lot of conversation about doing youth ministry with families, or what we call family ministry. But, is anyone doing it? I know we talk about it, but where are those youth ministers at that are ministering to the whole family, equiping parents to understand youth culture and empowering parents to nurture the development of faith in their students.
So, if you are at a church or are in youth ministry and now of a youth ministry that sees the bigger picture, let me know.
The problem that I am having is not the justification for family ministry, but the "how to" of family ministry.
Just my thoughts!
