A P&R Publishing Series in Partnership with Rooted Ministry
In the 31-Day Devotionals for Teenagers series, adults who care about young people look at what the Bible has to say about the everyday issues you face. Through personal stories and relevant examples, they show that Jesus brings hope for every challenge. This is a P&R Publishing series done in partnership with Rooted Ministry.
Rooted Ministry’s mission is to equip and empower churches and parents to faithfully disciple students toward life-long faith in Jesus Christ. Our vision is to transform youth and family ministry so that every student receives grace-filled, gospel-centered and Bible-saturated discipleship in the church and at home.
Rooted was born in response to the crisis in the spiritual lives of young people. What started with a small conference has grown into a movement to see gospel-centered youth ministry become the normative experience of teenagers throughout the church. Rooted promotes gospel-centered youth ministry through conferences, regional groups, Rooted Reservoir (our video training and curriculum), blog, podcasts, and books. Rooted’s 2021 release, The Jesus I Wish I Knew in High School, features stories from thirty authors about bullying, eating disorders, addiction, racism, family confl ict, and the intense pressure to achieve, demonstrating how knowing Jesus brings rest and healing.
Rooted embraces a simple approach to youth ministry based on our understanding of Scripture and validated by research on eff ective models for cultivating sustainable faith in young people. We emphasize five pillars of youth ministry which include gospel centrality, theological depth through biblical teaching, relational discipleship, partnership with parents, and integration with the whole church body.
Rooted uses this framework to promote faithful discipleship of young people through the adults who love them. Imagine the impact on teenagers’ lives if each week they are taught God’s Word, prayed for, and mentored to understand God’s grace for them through Christ. Rooted is reaching thousands of students by equipping their leaders for this type of meaningful ministry.
