  TEN BOOKS YOU'LL NEVER TAKE FROM MY YOUTH MINISTRY LIBRARY From YPNation's request for conversation: X. urlLink Waking the Dead Helped me understand and realize how spiritual warfare is all around us and how we are an integral part of God's plan. X. urlLink Please Understand Me Great resource for building teams, both mission teams and leader teams. X. urlLink Short Term Missions Workbook Excellent studies to work through with mission teams. X. urlLink Parenting Today's Adolscent The Rainey's talk about the most common traps of adolescence and, almost more importantly, pre-adolescence. X. urlLink Transforming Leadership Jesus as the model of leadership X. urlLink Decision Making and the Will of God What is God's will?
Better yet, let's understand a clear strategy for making decisions. X. urlLink Youth Builder Good overall youth ministry resource. X. urlLink Perspectives Reader The text from the Perspectives class. Speaks for itself. X. urlLink Operation World Yeah buddy. X. urlLink Intensive Care Subtitle "Helping Teenagers in Crisis" Hmm.. Interesting list, because I just realized that I don't really have a lot of books about youth ministry specifically. I guess in thinking about it, I've really been modeled for ministry by mentors versus reading youth ministry books.
That's probably not a big suprise to anyone reading this, if you have been involved in ministry, you have probably learned by working closely side by side with someone, seen their passion, seen what motivates them, seen how they connect with students. Anyway, enjoy the list for what its worth. Also note that there I didn't number them.
