The Youth Work Book Club: Walter Wink’s 'The Powers That Be'

Welcome to The Youth Work Book Club. In 2016 CONCRETE formed a theology and youth ministry reading group. The aim of the group is to read something thought provoking every six weeks and meet to reflect on it in light of, specifically urban, youth ministry. The group for this first edition is made up of James Fawcett from CONCRETE, Naomi Luff from XLP and Tim Broadbent from St Mary's, Islington but will be joined by members of the Premier Youthwork team. The first book we read was the Powers That Be by the theologian Walter Wink. What follows is a brief summary of the book and highlights of a conversation about the text. Next month, we’ll be reading The Spiritual City by Phillip Sheldrake. Grab a copy, and get involved.
