Nothing New Here May 29, 2001 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Carl Blunt has written a very readable book on youth minsitry principles. This book will not suck up all of your time as you read however, it does not have any groundbreaking new principles. As youth ministers we should already know that we need to create community in our youth program. We have read many books and periodicals that have told us that our own spiritual life needs to be on track before our student ministry can be up to par. We know that a team approach is best. So, other than making these principles part of an easy to read story, Blunt really has nothing new to say. If you are at the VERY beginning of youth ministry this book could help you. One of my biggest problems with this book is that it is at its heart a commerical for the TeamCE youth ministry program. It blatantly gives you the web site address for this program as a natural part of the story that Blunt is telling. It is a little offensive to me that they would stop in the middle of the story that they are telling and advertise for a product. My original review was more harsh and for that I apologize. This book can be of some value to beginners in ministry. The Team CE Series that is offered on their website has some strengths. This book will not break much new ground but it will help those of you who need a fresh perspective for the first time.
