Review

“It’s time for a ministry mutiny. With so many teenagers abandoning the faith after graduation, Greg Stier provides a radical, relevant, and biblical battle plan for student ministry. But be warned! This book is dangerous. Your youth ministry may never be the same. Start reading and let the uprising begin!”

Josh McDowell, speaker and author

From the Inside Flap

Are you ready to commit Ministry Mutiny?

Ty is so sick of it all. After three years of youth ministry, he finally reads the writing on the wall: His youth group is a big joke. It has all been a game. He hadn’t accomplished one valuable thing in the kids’ lives—he has just been a glorified babysitter. Ready to give up, Ty attends his last youth-worker networking meeting and meets a mentor who turns his world upside down and helps him see youth ministry from a whole new perspective.

Come alongside Ty and learn:

• how to listen for God’s whisper
• what are realistic—biblical—expectations for growth
• why churches should “go wide” with the gospel
• how to challenge kids to “grow deep”
• why you should engage parents to help
• what are the biblical values for youth ministry as opposed to passing fads

Author Greg Stier uses the power of story to inspire and equip youth workers with a compelling picture of what a successful youth minister could and should be. If you are looking for a resource to help you change and influence teens to continue growing in their faith as college students and adults, Ministry Mutiny is the tool you need.
