LET'S BE HONEST, WITH Andy Disher
|
meet Andy Disher
Andy is not your stereotypical Canadian. He doesn't like Canadain Bacon, he would rather watch baseball than hockey and he'd rather wear shorts all year long. However, regardless of where he is at, his love for students, parents and other youth pastors is not based on his geographical location.
Andy's been serving in Youth Ministry (in a wide range of areas) for over 20 years and is looking forward to another 20! When he's not learning how to best serve students, you can find him behind a BBQ cooking, or behind nerf gun shooting his 9 years old son (while his wife shakes her head.) Connect with Andy...

growing young
All churches grow old. Strategic churches grow young.
Across the United States, churches are losing both members and vitality as increasing numbers of young people disengage. Based on groundbreaking research with over 250 of the nation's leading congregations, Growing Young provides a strategy any church can use to involve and retain teenagers and young adults. It profiles innovative churches that are engaging 15- to 29-year- olds and as a result are growing--spiritually, emotionally, missionally, and numerically. Packed with both research and practical ideas, Growing Young shows pastors and ministry leaders how to position their churches to engage younger generations in a way that breathes vitality, life, and energy into the whole church. |
