What is the best way to guide them to personalize their faith?Worship-Centered Teaching will help you teach your teens to put faith and worship into practice in everyday life. Help them take their faith beyond the walls of the church as you guide your teenagers into the story of God. Worship-Centered Teaching provides both a theological foundation for youth ministry and practical advice for teaching spiritual growth. The authors explore faith development during adolescence as well as topics specific to the art and task of teaching, such as lesson planning, learning styles, and teaching methods.
