Post Modern Youthwork - book review - word-on-the-web

So what is it about?	This book looks at youth ministry in a postmodern culture - Asking questions like what does it look like? How can we be more effective? - This is not 'ready meals' for Friday youth group programme but if you want to look at the big picture of youth ministry today this is good stretching stuff.
Who is it for?	This is a book for youth leaders, some of it is a bit mind bending but its not too heavy and is worth a little bit of effort. It's helpful at raising issues even if you don't agree with the conclusions.
Does it do what it says on the label?	The really good thing about this book is that not only do you get Tony Jones' ideas you get the comments of others on it. Its like listening in on a conversation.
Enjoy or endure?	I think there are some real 'nuggets of truth' in this book. It's definitely worth reading if you're involved in leading young people, it'll give you loads to think about.
Any other comments?	If you read from Preface to Epilogue its 224 pages but there's plenty of space on each. It's an interesting lay out with interesting ideas.
