Abstract

Abstract This article is the second of two centring around the theme of desired outcomes of youth ministry practices, which are often embedded in a certain conception of spiritual maturity. The review study which forms the basis for these two articles aims to construct a theoretical framework on desired outcomes in youth ministry on the basis of a systematic literature review of scholarly works in peer-reviewed journals regarding the subject published from 1996 up to 2021. The wide range of outcomes as observed in the literature is classified by describing three areas of youth ministry goals: the areas of spiritual development, personal development and social development. Current, second article describes the outcomes found in the literature within the particular areas of personal development and social development. In addition, the question is addressed how youth ministry goals in the area of spiritual development, as presented in the first article, conceptually may relate to these in the areas of personal and social development. The article finishes with the discussion of the results of the whole review study and suggests core questions for further research.
