Lead a Weblog for Young Adult Leaders

Here’s the point: When was the last time you gave someone who serves in your church a compliment? That hurts doesn’t it? When it comes to church, we are completely comfortable with carving up the pastors message, criticizing the music, talking about the small group leader’s lame questions or in general, what missed the mark.

We need to have our mind sparked, our cage rattled, our methods confronted. We need high ideals that keep us from settling for mediocrity. We need success stories to inspire us to persevere. We need challenges in all areas of life and ministry. And we cant afford to drop $300 for conferences every month (plus travel, hotel, and meals҅of course). So, what should we do? Why not pick up a book and save some cash?

If you’re thinking about launching a ministry to twenty- and thirtysomethings, you’re not alone. There are literally hundreds of others around the country who share the same passion and calling to encourage and equip this generation. We’ve interviewed several pastors, leaders and church planters around the United States to find out what they wish they would have known before launching into ministry to young adults.
