Product Description
Deep Social Justice for Your Ministry gives youth workers the opportunity to go beyond simply trying to motivate kids to serve those in need and invites them to help their kids wrestle with why those people are in need in the first place. Specific topics that will be addressed include the out-of-the-box-Jesus, the power of repentance, biblically grounded motivations for service, the power of community, as well as how to respond to the poverty, racism, and unequal power relationships that abound nationally and internationally. All of these topics will be addressed in provocative ways that are grounded in an evangelical perspective on Scripture, ministry, and relationships.

Let's go deep!
This book, Deep Justice in a Broken World, is a much needed resource in a world of fast food, fast cars, and fast relationships. The authors cause us to stop and reflect on how to develop character, true character, in a generation that is trapped in consumerism and surrounded with marketing messages. This is the perfect book for anyone who cares about the future of America - and how our future can help shape the world for the better. I HIGHLY recommend this book!!!

A Monumentally Important work
This book is a must read for all those who have a heart for teenagers and care about the church. The days of entertaining youth, keeping them busy with church activities, and just trying to help them "make it" through their school years are over. This book points to a new and much needed understanding of what it means to help teenagers participate in embodying and witnessing to the Kingdom of God in their lives. The greatest value of this work is not that is adds to or even changes the sorts of things students can be a part of, but that helps to establish an entirely fresh paradigm of what it means to think about and do youth ministry. If you are not ready to rethink "youth ministry" from the bottom up leaving no stone unturned, then understand, this will be quite a dangerous read. Otherwise, it's a must have!
