Playing Games with God

Just like all schools are not the same all youth groups are not the same. But how can parents know that their kids are going to a good Biblical youth ministry? And what makes a group Biblical? In Playing Games with God Sam Magdalein lays out a simple framework that parents can use when searching for and examining a youth group for their teens. But what about modern youth ministries? Parents may have a feeling that something is wrong in these churches but can't quite put their finger on the problem. Sam includes a thorough examination of the foundations philosophies drivers and everyday practices of modern youth groups. Using numerous quotes from youth ministry seminary textbooks lessons plans from youth ministry conferences ministry resource books and articles you'll read in their own words what modern churches are actually doing with our kids.
