Is Vocational Student Ministry Here to Stay?

Is Vocational Student Ministry here to stay? That is a question that has been asked time and time again over the years. And, it has been a question Ben Kerns and I have talked about over the years as we have each been involved in student ministry for over 20 years.

As a point of reference to the conversation, Ben wrote a blog post on his site entitled, “Why vocational youth ministry will be here FOREVER!!!! 🙂
