Youth Ministry

outh ministry is to lead young men and women to Christ and to equip them with Word of God that they may not be despised but become examples. “Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity (1 Timothy 4:12).”

”Just a few months before his death, DL Moody told his oldest son that his efforts to train the upcoming generation of young people “are the best pieces of work I have ever done.”

“Youth” is the best phase of life to become a disciple of Jesus Christ. The practical advice of Jeremiah is, “It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth (Lamentation 3:27).”

 In the school of Christ, every young woman and every young man enjoy learning vital life-characterizing aspects. Because Jesus Christ, the best friend of youth, can sympathize in all their challenges. “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls (Matthew 11:28-29).”

Bible says, “He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint (Isaiah 40:29-31).”

The Lord renews their strength that they may mount up, run and walk while nothing else can!

“When Paul wrote his Epistle to Titus about his duty as a minister, he mentioned young men as a class requiring peculiar attention. After speaking of aged men and aged women, and young women, he adds this pithy advice, —”Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded” (Titus 2:6). I am going to follow the Apostle’s advice. I propose to offer a few words of friendly exhortation to young men.”– JC RYLE (Click here to read more)

Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity. Ecclesiastes 11:9, 10
