Tony Jones besoek Suid-Afrika

Youthnet van Deon Kitching bied hulle 14e Winterskool in samewerking met verskeie gemeentes regoor die land. Die tema van vanjaar is uiters relevant: “Postmodernism, Youth Culture and the Church”. Die hoofspreker wat optree is Tony Jones – Nasionale Koordineerder van die Emergent Church Beweging in die VSA.

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 Ministries, 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. (Joseph Valentine Dworak “JVD” – St Paul, MN)

Naas Tony Jones wat by SES geleenthede optree is daar nog VEERTIEN ander sprekers wat op verskillende fasette van Jeug- en Gesinsbediening sal fokus. Daar is een hele dag opsygesit (Donderdag) vir ’n Youth Ministry Think Tank sessie, waarin ons met Tony in gesprek gaan tree – en met mekaar gaan “share”. Verder sal daar boeke van Tony Jones, ander jeugbedieningsboeke en relevante DVD’s en CD’s te koop aangebied word.
