Today’s Youth Ministry Isn’t for the Faint-Hearted by John Freeman

Today’s Youth Ministry Isn’t for the Faint-Hearted by John Freeman

What do you do when someone attends your youth group who openly identifies as gay?

What do you do when students and parents in your youth ministry have different opinions about sexuality and gender, especially when those opinions contradict the Bible?

How do you create a culture in your youth group where young men and women who are struggling with sexual sin, same-sex attraction, or gender distress feel comfortable sharing those struggles with trusted disciplers and mentors?

If a youth pastor isn’t prepared to address tough topics related to sexuality and gender, questions like this can throw his ministry into turmoil and confusion.

Today’s episode from Harvest USA founder John Freeman offers a plea to youth pastors to take up the serious responsibility of equipping students, youth leaders, and parents how to understand biblical sexuality and compassionately minister to struggling youth.
