Book excerpt: The rules have changed. Everything you believe is suspect. The world is up for grabs. Welcome to the emerging postmodern culture. A "free zone" of rapid change that places high value on community, authenticity, and even God--but has little interest in modern, Western-tinged Christianity. Postmodern Youth Ministry addresses these enormous philosophical shifts and shows how they're affecting teenagers.

Download or read book The Politics of Discipleship (The Church and Postmodern Culture) written by Graham Ward and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internationally acclaimed theologian Graham Ward is well known for his thoughtful engagement with postmodernism. This volume, the fourth in The Church and Postmodern Culture series, offers an engaging look at the political nature of the postmodern world. In the first section, "The World," Ward considers "the signs of the times" and the political nature of contemporary postmodernism. It is imperative, he suggests, that the church understand the world to be able to address it thoughtfully. In the second section, "The Church," he turns to practical application, examining what faithful discipleship looks like within this political context. Clergy and those interested in the emerging church will find this work particularly thought provoking.

Download or read book Awakening Youth Discipleship written by Brian J. Mahan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Youth ministry has increasingly lost touch with its origins in the way of Jesus and the social practices intrinsic to Christian discipleship, and has instead substituted layers of "Jesus talk," middle class values, fun and games, and doses of "warm fellow-feeling." Awakening Youth Discipleship articulates the history of this domestication of youth and ministry. Mahan, Warren, and White tell a story of the ways in which our society has colluded to shape a domesticated adolescence. The authors believe a Christian response to this challenge must be multilevel, addressing the problem at three levels--society, church, and individual. The authors propose reclaiming practices of discernment that both engage congregations in social awareness and involve individuals in discerning fuller vocational opportunities than those allowed by popular cultural norms.

Download or read book Get Ready, Get Set … Go Ye!: Emerging Disciples In the Postmodern Era written by Marsha L. Williams, DMin, MDiv and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-02-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are called to be disciples and-once we come into a real relationship with Jesus Christ-to share it with others. But recently we have drifted away from making disciples, focusing instead on other things. In this study, author Rev. Dr. Marsha L. Williams shows that discipling, as the foundational mission of the church outlined by Jesus in the Great Commission, is cyclical and intergenerational and that churches must maintain a current and vibrant message for every new generation. As part of her doctoral thesis, Williams interviewed recent graduates from the Emmanuel Baptist Church of Tinton Falls, New Jersey, to update church practices that attract and keep the postmodern generation by evaluating the effectiveness of discipling programs. She now considers which practices were fruitful and why, explores alternative methods for discipling "generation next," and develops new activities and relationships to grow an intergenerational link, resulting in the discipled becoming the disciples.

Download or read book Digital Media and Youth Discipleship written by Vo Huong Nam and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today’s youth grow up immersed in digital technology. This presents a unique challenge to the church as it seeks to faithfully make disciples of the next generation. What does it look like – theologically and practically – to minister contextually to those whose lives are permeated by social media and digital culture? In this in-depth study, Dr. Vo Huong Nam offers both social and theological insight into the task of discipling youth in the digital age. He examines the impact of digital media on both society and young people and offers an overview of Christian responses to the changing technological landscape. Engaging such authors as John Calvin, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Henri Nouwen, he develops a constructive theology of spiritual formation relevant to the context of twenty-first century youth. He explores the implications of this theology on church practice, urging the church to take seriously its call to be all things for all people. Drawing specific examples from youth ministry in Vietnam, he addresses practical questions of application and contextualization and suggests that silence, solitude, and prayer are spiritual disciplines uniquely vital for the digital age. This book is an important resource for all those involved in discipling young people and longing to see today’s youth come to fullness of life in Christ.
