The 13th Resource!

That's right... the 13th resource you want for your ministry is this book! It is creative, challenging and very effective for the new youth worker or an old tenured guy like me. If you work in a church or a para-church ministry, The Top 12 Resources is for you!

GET THIS BOOK!!

This book is exactly what youth workers need--practical, user-friendly, thought-provoking, in-your-face ideas and resources.As an in-the-trenches youth pastor, I often don't have time to sift through all the myriad articles, books and magazines to find the help I'm looking for. It's the one resource where I am almost always guaranteed to find help--no hype, this is from my own experience. Jonathan is an excellent communicator who has organized this book in a highly usable way.I highly recommend this book!!

Aid to Any Youth Worker

McKee has written a book that will help anyone working in Youth Ministry today. Everyone starting in Youth Ministry should read it for several reasons. It gives great ideas to get you started. Plus it gives powerful principles that will guide you in years to come while serving in Youth Ministry. I have worked with teenagers for a number of years and still found great tools in his book. The book is a must for Youth Pastors

Tons of useful tools

This book is extremely useful. Whether you are looking for a ready-made event agenda, a movie discussion or a strange new game, Jonathan brings plenty of tools to you for immediate use. However, this book is not only great for hands-on programmatic tools, it is also great for training and recruiting leaders, as well as other theory stuff too. Jonathan continues to give away a ton of free stuff on his website, so between this book and the existing website ..., Jonathan is offering many wonderful tools to those of us in youth ministry.

Great Resource

This is a great resource for any youth worker (full or part-timers). Jonathan provides a lot of working examples of programs, games, and leadership ideas. Besides that, the book comes with lots of reproducible sheets that any youth worker could make use of. The author's writing style is very easy to read and he includes many real-life experiences to strengthen his reasoning. He also makes a point to back himself with relevant scripture. I read the whole book in only a few hours, but continue to go back to it for ideas and insight. As a part-time youth worker, this book provides a lot of ready-to-use ideas that I don't have time to come up with on my own. On top of that, Jonathan provides a lot of encouragement in the text for those working with kids.
