<br/><br/> Andrew Root and Kenda Creasy Dean invite us to envision youth ministries full of practical theologians, addressing the deep questions of life with a wonderfully adolescent mix of idealism, cynicism and prophetic intolerance for hypocrisy. The result is a more rigorous and meaningful youth ministry, and a more theologically grounded and engaged church.
