In his new book <i>Engaging Generation Z</i>, Tim McKnight provides valuable insights and tools for developing a student ministry that will connect with and nurture these young adults in their walk with Christ. As a long-time youth minister himself--and now a pastor and teacher of youth ministry--McKnight offers the kind of practical guidance that can make an impact on ministry in the local church. This is a book that deserves the attention of pastors and other church leaders as well as student ministers."--Michael Duduit, Editor, Preaching magazine; founding Dean, Clamp Divinity School of Anderson Uni (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"Eager to inspire and activate your young disciples? Your search is over. In his this, author Tim McKnight coaches pastors and parents with real-life narratives from his training in the Army, from historical perspectives from his work as a scholar, and from his heart as a parent of young men. Most importantly, his wisdom and encouragement come from his time spent in God's Word. Prepare to see your ministry and results change as you engage Gen Z."--Ken Coley, Senior Professor at Southeastern Seminary; Author of Teaching for Change (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"I read Tim McKnight's new book <i>Engaging Generation Z: Raising the Bar for Youth Ministry</i> from cover-to-cover with this question in mind: 'Is there anything new under the sun to inspire kids to love God and impact their world?' He more than answered my question. The 'raised bar' Tim champions is the ancient wisdom of caring parents, rites of passage, strong, Christ-centered families, passionate youth leaders that model servanthood, a lifestyle of evangelism, and Bible-centered discipleship. The great thing about this book is that Tim demonstrates how to make that happen. Read it thoughtfully and be prepared to change your parenting and grandparenting."--Ron Boehme, Youth With A Mission; Faith International University (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"I've been in student ministry since I was a student myself. After 35 years, I realized how much more there was to learn about Gen Z when it occurred to me that my two sons were part of it. Thank God for Tim McKnight! He has been more than a trusted friend to me. He's become a voice in reaching Gen Z with the gospel. He is respected by his peers and those who lead teenagers (and those who influence them) as one of the foremost leaders in preparing youth pastors to disciple a generation that seems to be so distracted by screens and social media. But what Tim does in these pages is lay out a biblical framework for helping students see who Jesus is, understand the good news of his kingdom, and become true followers of Christ. This book is a gift to the church."--Clayton King, Founder, Crossroads Summer Camps; Teaching Pastor, Newspring Church (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"I've had the pleasure of getting to know Dr. Tim McKnight's heart for teenagers and student ministry leaders firsthand, which is why I'm excited about this book. You should be assured that it comes from someone who lives student ministry, and who has a deep desire to serve you, the student ministry leader. I'm thankful for Dr. McKnight's contribution here in the effort to reach and disciple this generation of teenagers."--Ben Trueblood, Director of Student Ministry for Lifeway Christian Resources (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"In every era of student ministry, there is a resource that accurately assesses the landscape of the culture, identifies the unique characteristics of the current culture, and provides the practical insights necessary to faithfully serve youth and their families. In <i>Engaging Generation Z</i>, my friend Tim McKnight provides this generation's resource for ministers, leaders, and parents who are investing in today's students. His balanced approach is biblically rooted, historically informed, culturally relevant, and practically instructive. This work will be the benchmark in student ministry for years to come!"--R. Scott Pace, Vice President for Undergraduate Studies; Dean, The College at Southeastern (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"The vast majority of people who surrender to Jesus as Lord and Savior do it before the age of eighteen. Because of this truth, the youth ministry in every local church must be empowered and equipped to be the front lines of our evangelism and mobilization efforts. That's why <i>Engaging Generation Z</i>, by Tim McKnight, is such an important and timely book. Let this resource help guide you in reaching Gen Z, because I truly believe they are the generation in which God could spark the next great spiritual awakening! Therefore, every pastor, next gen leader, parent, and student needs this book."--Shane Pruitt, National Next Gen Director of North American Mission Board (NAMB) (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"Tim McKnight offers a great challenge in leading youth ministry to an ever-changing culture. Tim asks great questions to get you thinking, makes strong statements to give you a push, and offers great ideas to help advance youth ministry. Youth leaders and parents need to work through <i>Engaging Generation Z: Raising the Bar for Youth Ministry</i>, so together, we can raise the level of excellence for the students we serve."--Randall J. Davis, CEO/Executive Director of National Network of Youth Ministries (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"We do youth ministry best when we know our students and our Bibles well. In this book, Dr. Timothy McKnight combines a rich knowledge of Scripture with a wealth of insights on the experiences and perspectives of Generation Z to deliver a blueprint for revitalized and effective youth ministry. This is an invaluable and deeply encouraging resource for anyone navigating the intricacies of student ministry in our current context."--Greg Stier, Founder of Dare 2 Share Ministries (9/10/2020 12:00:00 AM)<br>
