Summary

As an alternative to the consumerist, program-driven views of ministry with youth, this book presents a different vision: youth ministry as a companioned walk with young people in search of vocation in its public and private dimensions. Adolescent stories of vocation, gleaned from research encounters with youthful collaborators, pepper this innovative resource.
