Douglas Wilson on Youth Ministry

Douglas Wilson offers a great perspective on youth ministry in this short video interview.  Often, youth group is disdained by those who emphasize family-based ministries because it supposedly diminishes/displaces the role the father ought to take.  On the other end of the spectrum, youth ministry can become a place where students are catered to rather than shepherded and trained to be better disciples of Jesus.  I think Doug's perspective is both wise and balanced.
