Interesting to see this quote in this months Youth Worker Journal following the CS Lewis quote from Friday.
Whether we realize it or not, our methodology flows from our theology. If we aren’t thinking about theology, then we’ll only have a shallow form of youth ministry. We allow whatever works to drive our hearts and minds because we’re mainly judged by and rewarded by results—if the teenagers have fun, if they enjoy coming to youth group, if the numbers are up, if the parents are happy, etc. All of these types of subtle measurements force us to focus predominately on methods without even realizing it
It is important that our theology determines our methodology, not the other way around.
The Shiny Headed Prophet 
Absolutely spot on. I really passionately agree with this. We need to reimagine theology and see theogical method as intricately connected to methodological practice. All Youth workers, all of us as people are theologians and need to be allowing out theology space to breath and shape whay we do as well as who we are and what we believe
