Unpacking Scripture in Youth Ministry focuses on how to teach and present the Bible in the lives of teenagers. Andrew Root argues that teens are constant interpreters - always asking the questions, who am I? and what do others think of me? - and so youth ministers must teach them to interpret the actions of God as revealed in the Bible. This view is different than teaching biblical knowledge - memory verses and Bible facts - and it's different than teaching them to interpret the Bible themselves. Rather, they are to view the Bible as a tool for interpreting God's actions and then respond with their own actions. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Root talks about the three-fold-form of the Word of God (cribbed from Barth, no doubt)--the Word of God revealed most fully in Jesus, the Word of God written (the Bible) and the Word of God proclaimed (preaching). He articulates a doctrine of revelation which sees the Bible as pointing to Jesus (the Word, but derived from the Word).
The narrative eschews learning the Bible in such a manner as to be able to parrot back particular Bible verses. Root is much more concerned that we learn to interpret scripture, and our own lives, in light of the larger story of Christ's coming.
Some thoughtful reflections here. The narrative is more of a device to talk about this stuff than it is a compelling read (didactic fiction). But good food for thought (and not just for youth ministers). ( )
