This is the book that takes the next generation seriously and recognises, at last, that you can’t separate gospel and mission. Mission – and that includes student mission, is not something done by separate ‘department’ of the Church, it is the very nature of Christian discipleship.
Alvin Reid is wise enough, experienced enough and down to earth enough to set his book on building a Christ centred student ministry in the secular sphere – its’ where they live. If you need biblical proof of the sense of that, of eh 40 miracles recorded in Acts, 39 take place outside of the ‘church’ walls.
What’s needed, he proposes, are the 4-Gs: God, the gospel, a goal and a gathering. Sadly, these have been supplanted with a drive to engage students with mere events, activities and entertainment rather than encouraging them to embrace the missional life.
The author provides a pragmatic approach for refocusing your student ministry with an approach that offers a dramatic and biblical change for the contemporary church, a change you as a student leader will be seeking already and that your students need right now.
