How to reach the Christian Youth

• Be willing to meet the youth on their home ground. Don't expect them to come to church to meet you.
  
• When you are speaking to them about Jesus, keep Him as the topic. Don't bring in religion. Jesus is more important.
  
• Find needs-based starting points to build relationships with the youth.
• Creatively translate the message of the cross in to language the youth will understand.
• Foster and nurture meaningful relationships with them.
• Attractively package the gospel. This can be done without diluting the message. Provide a social hook.
• Find a team which will allow you to multiply your efforts effectively.
• Fast and pray so that the Spirit may empower you as you claim souls for Christ.
• Don't work for the fame or the rewards as these may take YEARS to come about. Don't use youth ministry to feed your ego.
• Always follow through with each project.
• The closest some people may EVER come to Jesus this side of judgement is you. Make sure they get a positive message.
