Talk presented Sat, May 20, 2006 at the Urban Youth Workers Institute Conference 2006.
Together we will explore the challenges that we face in reaching the minorities in our rapidly changing world. What are the implications of serving in a Postmodern culture? What are some practical ideas that I can apply in my context to reach the minorities in my community?

This is the title of the most recent book that Thomas Nelson is
publishing for author Jeffrey De Leon. This workshop will take a look
at one of the biggest challenges we face in youth ministry as we try
to help young people to make right choices when they don’t care
about the consequences anymore. What are we to do if the values,
the principles and the consequences are not enough to motivate our
kids to do the right thing?
What is going on with this culture? What are some of the biggest
challenges we are facing and will continue to face as we try to
communicate Christ in a Post Modern Culture? Can we come
up with a few good ideas to help us communicate Christ in our
culture? This workshop will challenge us to reflect on the challenges
we face as youth pastors. We will also look at some
practical issues that will help us right away.
