Adoptive Church
Clark’s most recent book, Adoptive Church, overviewes Clark’s philosophy of ministry. “Adoptive Church is a must-read for church leaders desiring to engage today’s adolescent community in ministry. It is essential reading for both youth workers and senior church leaders. Clark has been a mentor and friend of mine for many years. His authority to speak into the life of the church comes from a lifetime of study, engagement, and ministry in the trenches. Adoptive Church will challenge, guide, and empower churches serious about ministering to today’s adolescent culture.”
