The Church Report just issued a list of "The Top 20 Youth Ministers" in America. Well, not on the list. Interestingly enough I am not familiar with most of those people. In fact, most of them aren’t published authors and seem to be pure practitioners. Youth Ministry speakers and authors seem to be completely missing.
Missing from the list? Interesting that Doug Fields isn’t on the list. He is clearly the most influential youth minister in America and at one of the most influential churches in America. If you ask people that I know "Who is the biggest name in youth ministry?" I would bet 7 out of 10 would say Doug Fields.
Honestly, it would seem that in order to be considered you would have to be on CR’s "Top 50 church" list as well.
