How well do you understand the mentality of people outside your church between 18 and 34 years old? What do they assume, what are they looking for, and how do they communicate?
This 19-page training pack includes nine articles—from the likes of Ed Stetzer and Scot McKnight—that shed some light on how to reach today's young adults. Rid yourself of misconceptions and find some helpful ideas. NOTE: You have permission to make up to 1,000 copies of this resource to be distributed in a church or educational setting.

I agree with Bruce. This is way to expensive. I would suggest restructuring you ministry if it costs you $15 to produce a 19 page download.

At first I thought the costs of these downloads were a problem. But then I bought one called, "Doable Evangelisim." Wow! For us these are cutting edge--fresh and creative tools to cultivate and prune our efforts in ministry. We are now working on our 11th download. Our only problem is we don't have tools like this in our denomination. Keep going Tim and all our brothers and sister at www.buildingchurchleaders.com!

I agree...these articles cost way too much. I would love to read them but I cannot afford to pay these kind of rates.
