As I’ve said before, I believe that ecclesiology is the number one problem facing youth ministry (and the church) today.
It seems I am in good company. In my inbox today was the monthly E-Journal from Fuller Seminary’s Center for Youth and Family Ministry (All youth ministers should subscribe to this and actually read it). One of this month’s articles is “Why Ecclesiology? Imagining a New Theology of Youth Ministry for the Church”. A quote:
Getting to the point, the way we think about church profoundly shapes the way we do youth ministry… We each hold a particular view of “church” that permeates our lives and ministries, with each view creating particular questions, opportunities and challenges.

Yippee! I will work to keep the creek at bay…or something like that. And yes, I am planning on moving to wordpress. By planning, I mean I talk about it occassionally.
Would you do me a favor and give your wifey poo a hug for me (since I think she’s mad at me for being pregnant….like I can help it!!!!)? And then would you give her a bite on the ankle from Squid, her favorite godson?
