No one has ever had or will ever have again the vantage point of Young Life that Bob Mitchell has had. Not a single day has passed since 1940 that Young Life hasn t been on his mind. (from the Foreword) One of the first people to come to faith in Christ through the ministry of Young Life, Bob Mitchell rose through its ranks to fill every conceivable position in the ministry, from being a club kid in Jim Rayburn's legendary "Club 37" all the way to serving for a decade as the mission's president. Written in the form of 37 letters to the Young Life family, Letters to a Young Life Leader is like sitting down and having a conversation with Mitch himself. Combining humility, deep spiritual wisdom, and Mitchell's trademark humor and gentle spirit, you will find each letter to be a gem worth reading over and over. The book is arranged in five different sections, each introduced by a story from Mitch's remarkable history with Young Life. Sit down, open to any letter, and be encouraged! ----------------------------------- Letters to a Young Life Leader includes 37 letters, covering topics like - prayer in Young Life - why we do club, camp, and Campaigners - building relationships with outsiders - servant leadership - Young Life and the Church - understanding the youth culture - balancing your family and ministry - spiritual formation
