| Summary: | The objective of this research study is the examination of the ideas about youth
work found within the leadership team for the youth work of the Evangelical St.
Reinoldi Chapel, Rupelrath. It investigates the way in which the team leaders'
subjective understanding of youth work is affected by theological tensions,
following David Bosch's approach “Mission in Creative Tension”. Following the
Empirical-Theological Praxis Cycle, a qualitative analysis is carried out within the
context of the youth leadership team of the Evangelical youth work. Data
collection is undertaken in the form of a group workshop, data analysis in
accordance with Grounded Theory. The results are utilised in order to develop a
Dialogical Model for Transformative Youth Work as well as guiding principles for
youth work with a missiological foundation. This study also aims to contribute to
the development of a missiological rationale for youth work. === Philosophy & Systematic Theology
