� Seeing teenagers grow closer to Christ through a deepening of their understanding and application of God's Word, and . . .
� Equipping and serving youth workers in the local church.
As you can see, ym360 and First Priority share the same passions. (Another thing we share in common? A zip code. ym360 is a Birmingham-based ministry.) The partnership is one we hope will grow the Kingdom and provide youth workers with the resources to be more effective at discipling teenagers.
ym360 lives out their passions in a few distinct ways:
� Bible Study Resources
� Training
� Networking, and
� Community
We are excited to say that in many ways, the partnership between First Priority and ym360 will produce fruit in each of these areas. While we're still working out the details of all the great opportunities we'll have to team up, you can expect to see some special promotions on Bible Study Resources for First Priority churches; some great training opportunities from youth ministry experts; and some opportunities to network with the ym360 guys to talk about resource needs and how they can better equip you and other youth workers.
All in all, both First Priority and ym360 are extremely excited and grateful for the chance to work together to support and equip the local church to disciple teenagers for Christ.
