Two leading voices have teamed up to deliver an insightful “playbook” on all the ins and outs of the high-energy field of junior-high ministry. Junior-High Adventure is a compilation of articles written by Kurt Johnston (Saddleback Church) interwoven with observations from Willow Creek’s Scott Rubin. This to-the-point how-to resource gives practical advice on leadership, overseeing games, casting vision, dealing with parents, programming and everything in between. An added bonus is the ample space provided to scribble in the margins.
Junior-high leaders and volunteers will come back to this resource repeatedly for encouragement and ideas. This title sets the new standard for books on junior-high ministry. Read it, use it and feel more confidently equipped to invest in the lives of junior highers.
