Is youth group the kids table?
by Adam McLane on December 14, 2011
We love Kara Powell and the learnings that came out of Fuller Youth Institute’s Sticky Faith research.
There seem to be two dominant schools of thought in the youth ministry world right now. There are the self-contained program models and the family-based models. But this video seems to be advocating a third option, one of integration. (Dare I say de-age-segregation?)
What do you think? Does youth group relegate our students to the kids table of the church? And what if the “kids” in our ministry like sitting at the kids table?
