Orthodoxy Vs Orthopraxy Survey

Matt Slippy got in touch with me last week about an interesting survey he is conducting for his D.Min.

Below is some information. If you would take a few minutes to participate in the survey, that would be a huge blessing. Please also share it with others via Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Orthodoxy Vs Orthopraxy

Which is more important, what we believe or what we do in youth ministry? It would be easy to debate and discuss this Q (which we will certainly do), but when it comes down to choosing only one of two options on a given weekend for our teens to participate in, what option would we choose?  For instance, would I take my students to serve at a homeless shelter or take them to a worldview conference? I am conducting an online research project to see which direction youth pastors, parents of teens, and youth ministry students in colleges and seminaries lean on this important Q. I am hoping to survey at least 1000 people in each group. With your help, I believe this is possible.

Goto: www.youthministrysurvey.com There is a link for youth pastors, a link for parents, and a link for youth ministry majors. Once youth pastors take the survey, please give the link to parents of teens in your ministry and ask them to take the survey for parents.

Also, I need your help in getting the word out about  www.youthministrysurvey.com to other youth pastors within your network of relationships, via online communities, denominational groups, and your local networks.

Thank you for your help and encouragement.
