The eleven articles in Vibrant Worship with Youth expand on the liturgical principles and strategies found in From Age to Age: The Challenge of Worship with Adolescents. Authored by leaders in liturgy and youth ministry, the articles cover a variety of concerns related to worship with young people: communal participation, cultural considerations, leadership, music, homilies, drama, catechesis and liturgical ministries.

The book includes "Spirited Music and Singing," by Tom Tomaszek, "Youth and Liturgy," by David Haas, and "Ten Things to Keep in Mind When Preaching to Youth," by Bishop Kenneth Untener. The appendix contains a "Checklist for Fostering Vibrant Worship with Youth," with questions that help you evaluate the youth-inclusiveness of your parish or school liturgies. The list can also serve to encourage discussion of youth issues with your parish or school pastoral team.

Edited by Brian Singer-Towns, Vibrant Worship with Youth is a practical resource for youth ministers, pastors, parents, teachers and anyone involved in youth ministry.
