The Godbearing life : the art of soul tending for youth ministry, Revised Edition by Kenda Creasy Dean and Ron Foster, with Megan DeWald has been cataloged - BV4447 .D39 2022 - and added to the collection.

From the publisher's summary: "Like the original, The Godbearing Life, Revised Edition is conversationally written, grounded in scripture, and grows out of all three authors' own pastoral experience. The update addresses the profound shifts in society and ministry over the past twenty-five years--from the interconnection of technology to the professionalization of youth ministry. This book reimagines the means of Godbearing youth ministry in a post-pandemic digital age in the twenty-first century while holding on to the fact that young people are continuously transformed by the message."
