Reaching Teenagers For Christ

The sports world coaches us to “practice the basics” over and over until we eventually achieve excellence and ultimate success. Al Baines understood the basics of effective ministry and applied these to a fledgling youth group in a small, rural church of two hundred adults. Within two years of implementing these basic principles, the church’s youth program grew to over half the size of its adult congregation. This book will examine these principles and show the results that were obtained. They can bring genuine spiritual impact to any church leadership team looking to answer the question, “How can we build an effective youth program in our church?” The time frame has changed, but the principles remain trustworthy.
