  Youth ministry today has fallen on hard times. Many churches continue to employ the same methods that have become entrenched over the last few decades, while others are questioning the need for youth ministry at all. Michael McGarry explores the foundation of youth ministry in the Old and New Testaments and brings that together with Church history in a compelling way. This contemplative and well-researched book provides a careful critique of youth ministry along with practical guidance for those serving in ministry. The author directs the listener toward a new era of youth ministry where parents and intergenerational ministry play a more significant role. McGarry shares five pillars of gospel-centered youth ministry and reminds listeners of the spiritual priority of parents. This work includes an excellent list of essential building blocks for youth ministry along with practical advice for creating a bridge-building ministry connecting church and home.

  Peter doesn’t need mothered… 
  After his mom suffers a brain injury and his dad walks away, Peter Stafford, his big sister Star, and their broken mother move to a small town to live with Pete’s grandmother. While Star fights the changes every step of the way, Peter wants to make this work, but what do you do when your mom thinks like a ten-year-old?

When she finds a new guy hiding in the park one morning, all those maternal feelings get going, and not with the best results. Why would God send her Pete, who doesn't think he needs even one mother, let alone two? Does God not know her at all? 
  But their issues are their strengths, and his loss and her smothering might lead them to rescue one another and a few other lost souls along the way. 
  Part of the Snack Cake Chronicles young adult novel series, Pete and the Water Tower is a Christian teen read that's just as appealing to adults. Read them in any order, tales about growing up, growing in faith, and learning to love.

  How has God provided for single Christians? Statistics show that life as a single person has become a common experience. For many in the church, singleness is the new normal. Between loneliness, sexual temptation, and self-pity, Christians often forget that God does not view them as second-class. In this short booklet, Joel Beeke and Paul Smalley remind single Christians that they can experience rich and satisfying lives when they understand that Christ, not marriage, completes them. Pastoral and practical, their biblical wisdom shows singles in the church how they can see their singleness as God’s gift for them as a means to glorify and enjoy Him forever. Singles and married couples alike can learn from this resource as they strive together to grow in godliness. “As an older, lifelong, single Christian, I recommend this booklet to my fellow Christian singles as a helpful summary of biblical principles, advice, and promises.” ―Curt Daniel, pastor of Faith Bible Church, Springfield, Illinois, and author of The History and Theology of Calvinism This booklet is a part of the “Cultivating Biblical Godliness” series, which answers questions Christians have about everyday faithfulness in life and practice.

  "One who is ignorant of scientific knowledge of the spirit soul does not look inside the body to find happiness in the soul; instead, he goes outside to search for happiness." " 
   
  The human body is rarely achieved and although temporary like other bodies, it is meaningful because in human life one can perform devotional service. Even a slight amount of sincere devotional service can give one complete perfection." 
   
  "Krishna is the knower of everything because He does not see outside in but inside out. Gopinathji sees the Motivations, Intentions & Aspiration within our heart."
