Over at slant33.com, Marko recently asked about tradition in Youth Ministry. It’s a great conversation with three worthy responses. Are the things we hold sacred in youth ministry possibly not much more than an oftentimes feeble attempt at being trendy gone stale? Do traditions offer us the language of shared experience or do they entrap us into predictable ruts? Can they be an incredibly important part of your youth ministry or a dangerous, time-consuming distractions from your ministry?
