As elders, evangelists, and church leaders, how important is a successful youth and family ministry to the overall health, growth, and building of our churches? John Porter (South Florida) and Adrian Hill (London) tackled this crucial question and others in a workshop for elders and evangelists at the International Conference of Youth and Family Ministry in Chicago.
After serving for many years as a missionary and church leader in numerous places, John Porter now serves as the congregational evangelist in the South Florida Church of Christ. John also oversees the youth and family ministries in the South Florida Church.
As a church leader, Adrian Hill has led a youth and family ministry revival in the London churches in the last few years. After very difficult times in 2003 that devastated the youth ministries in London, Adrian’s influence and leadership have helped the London teens recover and come back very strong.
John and Adrian discuss the importance of youth ministry from a church leader’s perspective in the audio lessons below.
