A case for holistic ministry to urban youth and families

Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Doctor of Ministry Thesis-Project Abstract: Urban churches are facing a crisis in the development of youth leaders who are trained for holistic ministry to urban youth and families. Existing trainings fail to incorporate the complex nature of the urban family environment. This thesis argues the need for training urban church based youth leaders as facilitators for holistic and systematic ministry to youth and families. The theological foundation explores key components of the urban family, urban systems and the urban church village as the base of an authoritative community to equip and empower urban families.
