Healthy Youth Ministry

I’ve been enjoying our discussions on what a healthy youth ministry looks like. It’s a tough discussion, but I think I agree mostly with Field’s in PDYM in that a healthy youth ministry does contain an equal balance between five biblical purposes

Evangelism

Worship

Fellowship

Discipleship

Ministry

I know my ministry is not balanced yet, but I am praying and hoping to strengthen our ministry for the health of our group. I would say our weakest areas would be evangelism and ministry, a good program would be discipleship, and our fellowship and worship are above average. I know this will be the main discussion of the blog (what is a healthy youth ministry), so feel free to post your own thoughts.
