With solid theological grounding, Fred P. Edie provides suggestions on how youth can practice the ordo, the ancient church's "ordered" life around its liturgical holy things: bath (Baptism); book (Scriptures); table (Eucharist); and calendar (the prayerful patterning of time). Through this book, youth leaders will be able to guide Christian youth to experience God's presence and take up their baptismal vocations before God and for the world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →What is youth ministry actually for? And does it have a future? Andrew Root, a leading scholar in youth ministry and practical theology, went on a one-year journey to answer these questions. In this book, Root weaves together an innovative first-person fictional narrative to diagnose the challenges facing the church today and to offer a new vision for youth ministry in the 21st century. Informed by interviews that Root conducted with parents, this book explores how parents' perspectives of what constitutes a good life are affecting youth ministry. In today's culture, youth ministry can't compete with sports, test prep, and the myriad other activities in which young people participate. Through a unique parable-style story, Root offers a new way to think about the purpose of youth ministry: not happiness, but joy. Joy is a sense of experiencing the good. For youth ministry to be about joy, it must move beyond the youth group model and rework the assumptions of how identity and happiness are imagined by parents in American society.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In The Song of Youth, Montserrat Roig boldly presents eight remarkable stories that use language as a weapon against political and social "dismemory." Her powerful and striking prose allows the important stories of those silenced by the brutal Franco regime to, at last, come to the fore. The Song of Youth is undoubtedly feminist and deeply critical but, as always, Roig's lyrical writing gives shape, depth, and significance to the human experience.

This senseless violence has plagued our streets because of the mental state of we've been in. The only ones benefiting from this violence are the gravediggers and the prison systems. We all must play a part to end the violence and killings, especially those who added to the problem. If we try to ignore it, it will surely get our attention when it comes knocking at the door! We must learn to 'live and let live' and finally break away from the chains of psychological slavery. Without a change in thinking we may be physically free, but mentally, we will still be in prison, just minus the bars. The only way we can accomplish true freedom is by learning from life's experiences. There's nothing nice about laying in a casket and there is nothing sexy about wearing an orange jumpsuit and brown state boots.Life IS a struggle. We all know this, but we all don't accept it. If we live a bigger and better life we are going to be faced with new challenges. We must go through these challenges and allow them to build us up as stronger men and women. It is then our duty to pass down this knowledge and mindset to the next generations and break the unbroken cycle. Somebody dropped the ball many generations ago, so now, let's start to make things right.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book traces the heightened time-consciousness that has emerged since the 1990s in popular Indian discourses – across cinema, television, print and consumer culture – and argues that these anxieties concerning time are symptomatic of the struggle between labor and capital. Drawing on critical theory, cinema and media studies and Marxist-feminist concepts, Kapur shows how the recent political-economic shift in India toward neoliberalism has been accompanied by a new emphasis on youth and a preoccupation with change, novelty and the acceleration of time, with profound consequences for conceptions of time, youth and the relations between generations.
