Summary: Excellent
Comment: Tony Jones is an expert in youth ministry, postmodern youth ministry and this book shows why. Tony lectured in my class at seminary and it was the first lecture I heard in my first year that totally made sense. Tony knows the landscape has changed and will change dramatically, as fast as we can figure it out it will change.
So many books are stuck in formulas A + B = Great Youth Minstries, Tony goes beyond formulas and explains the landscape. Tony is a tremendous teacher, and yet very humble with the knowledge he has gained over years of youth ministry experience.
I recommend this book to followers of Christ both young and old, especially those who are trying to figure out what in the world is postmodernism.
One warning, don't come to this book for a guide of how to do youth ministry, Tony won't give it to you. What Tony will give you is the knowledge and the tools to figure out what to do in your area and with your students. This is a solid book.

Summary: Telling it like it is
Comment: Students crave authenticity even as technology seems to move them further away from each other. Authentic community can be acheived and the church can be the place and force that does this. Tony Jones is the father of postmodern youth ministry and he walks his talk. With all of the things youth workers compete with they do have something to offer this generation and that offering is an answer to a hunger for relevancy in a community that cares.
If you can't hire Tony Jones to be on your staff then at least buy this book and you get the next best thing.

Summary: why kids hate church
Comment: Author, Tony Jones lays out in detail why we as youth volunteers have failed in reaching youth. He explains how the rules have changed and how we need to learn to speak another language. Postmodernism is all around us, and our old models of church youth programs are not holding up in this new world. This book has opened my eyes and has inspired me to rethink how I have always approached the youth of my church. I recommend this book for all who care about our youth today.
