| Publisher Description: New Ground is a challenge to the church to re-think the way in which it engages in both student mission and youth ministry. The student household model seeks to bring together the passion, energy, time and gifts of Christian students and to connect them with the needs of the local church. Particularly helpful for smaller or struggling churches in university towns and cities, student households are a practical and affordable option in places where other models simply are not feasible. They are also a fresh way of re-imagining and engaging in student mission. Initially developed in the Canterbury Diocese of the Church of England, student households add a new perspective to the missionary task. The model is suitable for churches of all denominations and works well in an ecumenical context. This primer introduces the key themes and the building blocks needed to plant a student household. |
