What is the status of your “Youth Ministry”? Whether you are just beginning or currently have a successful ministry, Youth Minister, Russell Bernard, will provide tips to help your ministry reach youth and connect with Jesus Christ in 21st Century terms.

This will be an excellent opportunity to gain insights from an innovative and out-of the-box minister who believes that we should not compromise the Gospel but we must engage the culture to reach our youth.

He has a passion for discipling youth and assisting them to make sense of their relationship with Christ through their context. He has both initiated and grown youth ministries. As a result of his success and experience, he is finishing his first book entitled, Doing Effective Youth Ministry.
