There innumerable definitions of
youth ministry and its value. Many of them are right. Sometimes it
is a matter of the moment. But one definition is: that which we do
while waiting for a crisis to deal with.
A youth in crisis is our real
calling. We need to be there for them, we need to be trained and
knowledgeable and ready to act. Often the crisis is a broken arm,
but sometimes it is suicide, or crises of faith. It doesn't matter,
it is our job to take care of them.
It doesn't matter if they were being
stupid
It doesn't matter if they were being
immoral
It doesn't matter if the crisis is
bigger in their sight than ours
It doesn't matter if we have other
things to attend to
