Rerun: Central Coast Teenagers

There are 40,000 teenagers on the Central Coast. Many of my blog posts last year related to ministry amongst teenagers on the Central Coast. Below are 3 of them. There are comments specific to the Central Coast – but I suspect that many of the observations and principles are applicable amongst teenagers in other contexts.

Central Coast Teenagers

One of my aims this year is to study more of Central Coast teenage culture, in order to better reach it with the good news of Jesus. When I’m not speaking at other youth groups, I’m keen to talk to teenagers at Erina Fair and hopefully get involved in some of the events run by the Youth Centre.

ps – 1 warm fuzzy for naming the 3 former central coast teenagers (ie no longer teens) in the picture. Bonus warm fuzzy for the event…

This week is a week of reruns on dave miers dot com. In November 2006 I wrote two posts on Emo Evangelism: Part 1; Part 2. Was I onto something? Do you know of anyone doing good evangelism to those from an ’emo’ sub-culture? Are you a Christian emo… a Cremo?

Dig Lazarus, Dig

The Centre for Public Christianity website was launched on Good Friday. CPX is “a research and media organisation promoting the public understanding of the Christian faith.” John Dickson and Greg Clarke are the big daddies of the venture and it looks like they’ve got some good gear happening.

In the video below, Greg Clarke reviews the latest Nick Cave album: Dig Lazarus, Dig. Check out the text version.
