Overview

How well do you understand the mentality of people outside your church between 18 and 34 years old? What do they assume, what are they looking for, and how do they communicate?

This 19-page training pack includes nine articles—from the likes of Ed Stetzer and Scot McKnight—that shed some light on how to reach today's young adults. Rid yourself of misconceptions and find some helpful ideas. NOTE: You have permission to make up to 1,000 copies of this resource to be distributed in a church or educational setting.

This Training Pack contains all of the following:

I totally agree with Bruce(above). These things have to be more affordable for the average person to afford. The only ones that can afford that kind of thing are people in large churches with big expense budgets. Please make them more affordable!!

I agree with Bruce. This is way to expensive. I would suggest restructuring you ministry if it costs you $15 to produce a 19 page download.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Bruce, I can definitely understand your concern. I think the issue is what makes a download of ours different from another form of content. For many of our readers, a 19-page download actually offers more value than a 200-page book. If you are wanting to train leaders in your church, it's much more time-consuming to read through 200 pages, pull out the points of application, and then present them to others in a helpful format. Our articles are ready-made for training. As MS Word documents, they're easier to tweak and duplicate than a print magazine. They're also usually focused around more specific topics. And unlike a book, you can get not one but several qualified perspectives on a topic. Having said that, I can understand how the price would seem off-putting. And thank you for voicing your concern. Just know that we're a non-profit ministry, so for us, the prices reflect the effort we put in and the value we think is there -- we're not in it for the money!
