Recreation as a Tool in Youth Ministry

5
(1)

Youth programs that are ‘too spiritual’ for recreation (games and fun group activities) probably will not achieve their spiritual goals because they will be leaving out a primary tool for achieving them. All people are involved in some form of recreation to an extent, but especially youth. Four factors make recreation an important tool in youth ministry:

  1. Youth are activity-oriented;
  2. Youth are motivated by involvement;
  3. Youth desire to have fun;
  4. Youth need positive social interaction and need practice interacting socially in a controlled environment.
