Student Ministry That Leaves a Mark: Changing Youth to Change the World

This is a very good book, and it is organized with chapters devoted to specific issues in youth ministry. The writers have a lot of experience, and the book speaks to their passion for evangelism and preaching the Gospel. The book is not really intended for school chaplains, and it is apologetically Christian, but it gives insight into the gifts and skills necessary for working with young people. I would recommended it to anyone interested in school ministry, because it addresses problems and joys in a way that is direct and easy to follow.

There were some very good insights provided in this book. They used other sources that I didn't already know of. They cover a broad range of topics. One topic that I think we need more of in youth ministry literature is about what they call student preaching. They address communication skills that are important for an effective communicator in youth ministry.
