Many of the most popular approaches to youth ministry today begin by portraying youth as collections of fixed snapshots, "profiles" based on sociological research studies. Yet according to Dr. Jeff Keuss, today's youth cannot be adequately characterized by these simplistic and static descriptions. Keuss argues that what is needed, instead, is a qualitative approach to describing youth culture, one that recognizes the "blurred" nature of today's mobile youth culture. Jeff Keuss helps readers navigate today's youth culture by presenting a new way of thinking about youth, one that sees them more holistically and less clinically. Those who learn to see youth culture through this new lens will be better informed and better equipped to minister in today's rapidly changing world.
