B.R.M. (Bathroom Reading Material) for Youth Workers

Jeremy Halstead graduated from college with a degree in Specialized Ministries and an emphasis in Youth Ministry. Shortly after entering full-time ministry, he realized that even though he had earned a degree, he was truly ill-equipped for the ministry that he was now serving in. Jeremy surmised that he could not be the only youth leader who felt this way, so nineteen years later he wrote this book based upon his ideas, experiences, stories, victories, and failures. The title of the book may sound a bit strange, but everyone uses the bathroom, and most people read while doing so--why not read about what you love and are involved in: youth ministry. This book was written to be a tool for youth workers. You can read it from beginning to end, or just open it to any page, as there is no rhyme or reason to the order of the topics. As you read the pages be inspired to try something new, be educated with fresh information and ideas, and be equipped to implement what you have read immediately into your ministry. Jeremy Halstead is the youth pastor at the First Church of God in Eaton, OH. He has been married to Rhonda for twenty-three years. They have two sons, Jordan and Justin. He is a native of Wichita, KS. Halstead holds a bachelor's degree in Specialized Ministries from Mid America Bible College, Oklahoma City; an MA in Youth Ministry from Huntington University, Huntington, IN; and has been in full time youth ministry for nineteen years.
