The Princeton Lectures on Youth, Church, and Culture
2022 — Construct: Building Ministry with Young People
Introduction
Hosted by the Institute for Youth Ministry, the 2022 Forum focused on the theme “Construct: Building Ministry with Young People.” The conference explored how the foundations on which youth ministries have been built have shifted, and considered how God is leading leaders to construct resilient ministries with young people. Participants engaged questions such as: Which constructs still need to die or be torn down so that fresh frameworks can take shape? What tools are required for such holy construction? The Forum cultivated conversations and collaborations to help leaders identify God’s vision and their resources for rebuilding creative, thoughtful, and justice-oriented ministry with young people.
