COURSE 7 (1009CM1)

Thinking Intentionally About Youth Ministry

Instructor: Rev Bernard Chao

Date: 22 September – 10 November, 2010 (8 Wednesday Evenings)
Time: 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Venue:  St. Andrew's Cathedral

Fees: $80.00 for new students; $60.00 for returning students (Free for TTC Alumni and TTC Full-Time Students - Registration Required)

Synopsis

This course is intended for both youth workers and lay persons who have been serving in the fast paced, ever changing,
never-a-dull-moment trenches of youth ministry, and desire to take a step back to reflect and think about the youth
ministry.

These sessions will provide opportunities to re-examine ministry among youths, paradigm shifting propositions to contrast
with our often un-articulated or uncertain theology or philosophy of why we do what we do, and offer each participant
practical handles and tools to grapple with youth ministry in our unique contexts.
