Just for youth pastors
Once Upon a Time, there was the perfect program. . . Â…and then you woke up.

Okay, so the perfect program doesn’t exist. Fortunately, we serve the perfect Savior and He makes the trials and tribulations of youth work eternally rewarding-even when you feel like giving up. David Chow has words of exhortation for fellow youth pastors and volunteers: It’s not how you do ministry, it’s what you are. His true confessions of a youth pastor will validate your own ministry growing pains while at the same time encouraging you to keep pressing on toward the goal: forging new disciples for Christ.
