"Essential reading for church leaders wanting to revitalize their congregation" Worship with Teenagers addresses the vital role of public Christian worship in adolescent spiritual formation and demonstrates how important youth ministry and worship ministry are to each other. "Mathis has written a book unlike any I have read in youth ministry. He explores, with impressive depth and scope, the various ways young people worship and how these experiences both reflect and shape their faith and lives." --Kenda Creasy Dean (from the foreword) "This is a thoughtful book. As thinkers have wrestled with the reductions of late modernity and the way it strips the world of enchanted ritual, many have pointed to the importance of returning to worship. Mathis has done something powerful for us; he's picked up this worship sensibility and driven it into the center of youth ministry. This book is one all pastors and youth workers should read." --Andrew Root, Luther Seminary; author of The Congregation in a Secular Age "A perceptive and thought-provoking invitation to reconsider typical approaches to both youth ministry and public worship in congregations, parachurch organizations, Christian schools, and campus ministries. This book challenges simplistic limits that we too often impose on intergenerational communities and particular generational cohorts and invites us to a richer and deeper way of worshiping together." --John D. Witvliet, Calvin Institute of Christian Worship, Calvin University, and Calvin Theological Seminary "While there are plentiful resources for youth ministry, worship scholar Mathis perceptively observes that there is a serious lack of scholarship on adolescent spiritual formation. Mathis's book is essential reading for church leaders wanting to revitalize their congregation." --Lim Swee Hong (林瑞峰), Emmanuel College, Victoria University, University of Toronto "A vision like this--one that understands teenagers less as a demographic and more as disciples--is a glorious challenge for worship pastors like me. The church is prone to talk of teens one dimensionally. Thank God for this fresh invitation to three-dimensional ministry with our young disciples." --Zac Hicks, canon for liturgy and worship, Cathedral Church of the Advent, Birmingham, Alabama; author of The Worship Pastor
