Youth Ministry, as traditionally organized, has also suffered the impact of social changes.

F. Scott FitzgeraldRead
I think young people are the most creative and the coolest - people that we should be learning from. Even when I'm at a party, I'm analyzing it and thinking about it in the context of how I would write about it. That side of me never switches off.

Bear BryantRead
