In light of my last post about the timing of ministers introducing their personal hobby horses, I've been wondering what hobby horses I've got.
When I reflect on the talks I've given, topics I go out of my way to teach on and angles I make sure to include when applicable, a few spring to mind.
Obviously, the first would be ministry to young people. But, this seems far too generic.
More specially, I could focus in on youth ministry leadership or effective communication.
But, when I think of the topics I continually circle back to on this blog, two spring to mind.
The first are the drop out points within churches for young people. I've mentioned this topic a lot, building upon it over the years.
The second is one that I've pondered a plenty. It's resulted in some of my most controversial opinions, my most viewed posts and most confronting conversations during my time in ministry.
I've read a whole lot about porn, both from a Christian and a secular perspective, and the damaging impact it has on those who consume and, in general, produce porn.
And if you want me to fire up about a topic, these are the two hobby horses which I'll jump on board and quickly ride into town.
