Youth Ministries

Description:

This course is designed to cover a wide range of topics and issues related to doing ministry with youth in urban environments.

We will ask questions about the city's appeal to suburban and rural youth, neo-yuppies, gentrification, urban development and renewal. Students in this class will have an opportunity to research and present their findings on a particular urban youth sub-culture and their unfolding vision for doing ministry with that particular group.
