Science is not a danger to the faith of Christian youth. In fact, Sara Sybesma Tolsma, an award-winning scientist, and Jason Lief, a leading practical theologian, argue that youth ministry needs science to help young people explore their relationship to God and engage their world faithfully.
Jesus Loves You and Evolution Is True invites the church and its leaders to open their minds and hearts to what science can tell us about our human lives and...

While having private devotions in October 2018, I came across a verse in Song of Solomon 1:6. God's Spirit spoke very powerfully to me on that day. Being a person who loves to be busy serving in ministry (i.e., tending others' gardens), I had forgotten the importance of "tending my own garden," (i.e., remembering the priority of personal piety, or holiness). I confessed my sin that day and am seeking to keep a guard over my soul. At the same time,...

Learning to be responsible and to shed our naive childish thinking is expected, but in the process of growing up, we also lose something. Some of the most important and also some of the simplest things take on a different meaning when you've forgotten what it is like to be an innocent child.

"In a society where my generation is often mischaracterized or misunderstood by parents and those around them, assumed to be irreligious, cynical, and jaded, I intend to depict it as I see it: which is to say a generation lying just at the door of faith, having rejected everything but faith itself. Having assumed everything to be meaningless, we are very close to accepting God as the only source of meaning." - Marjorie Corbman. In this candid, thought-provoking...

The idea is to relate it to 'Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde', and keep the theme throughout the book. You are your own worst enemy and hardest critic. We have to learn to get ourselves out of our own ways we can allow God to use us the way he wants...

There's a surging hunger among teenagers for Jesus. New research shows that they want a clearer understanding of what Jesus really said and did, and how faith in matters in their lives. In fact, that desire is so deep, it's #1 on their "wish list" for what they'd like to talk about at church.
But are we doing that? Even though we assume that everything we do in youth ministry is about Jesus, the evidence is clear:That's not what our students say...
