DeVries pinpoints problems that cause division and burnout and dispels strongly held myths. He then provides the practical tools and structures needed to lay a strong foundation for your ministry so that it isn't built on a person or the latest, greatest student ministry trend.

Building a sustainable youth ministry is not easy, and it's not quick. But with commitment to the process, hard work and DeVries's guidance, you can put together a healthy youth minister--one that fits your church and last for the long haul.
