Shepherding in The Fourth Gospel Lawrence Busayo Olaniyan

In this book, you will find the goal, vision, model, theological foundations, and pastoral practice of Catholic youth ministry. Here is where you'll find a practical implementation of the final document of the 2018 Synod titled 'young people, the faith and vocational discernment', as well as that of the post Synodal exhortation titled 'Christus vivit'. You'll also learn in this book how to empower young people to become disciples, how to promote active participation of young people in youth ministry and in the faith community, and how to provide for personal and spiritual growth for our youth. Indeed, it is an invaluable and comprehensive resource, which offers parish and diocesan youth leaders all the information needed in running a successful and authentic youth ministry. It is equally needed by all youth coordinators, volunteers, animators, program leaders, as well as pastors and all those, who collaborate with them in pastoral matters. It is a good resource, an excellent foundational text, for people who are studying youth ministry at all levels.
