Because parents are the primary evangelizers of young people, they must be integrally involved in any successful youth ministry program. Youth Ministry and Parents paves the way for youth ministers to create successful partnerships with parents of the teens in their parish. It helps youth ministers understand parents of teens and gives youth program leaders concrete strategies for enlisting parental support, overcoming resistance, and using the parental support system to complement youth ministry programs. This book is a must-have for every parish where youth ministers and parents understand the benefits of working together.Leif Kehrwald
