Déscription

“Dr. Scott Ward shares principles and experiences that will inspire you. The testimonies contained in this book will empower you as you consider your ministry calling and practices.” – Dr. Tracy Wood (Youth & Young Adult Ministries Director, North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists) 

“Dr. Ward writes in an authentic and practical style that puts the reader at ease like we’ve just sat down in a conversation together. It is an easy read, packed full of practical examples that teachers and principals can immediately apply. But more deeply, the transparency found within the plethora of rich stories feels like rare and honest insights that remind us of how human we are. What I appreciate most are the psychosocial developmental stages for adolescents that Dr. Ward applies to discipleship. He brilliantly demonstrates the necessity for creating your ministry within a youth’s need for autonomy, belonging, and purpose.” – Angela White (Superintendent of School Growth, Oregon Conference of Seventh-day Adventists)
