Does ALOVE Mean The End Of Uniforms And Brass Bands?
ALOVE is not about favouring one cultural medium over another. It is about living out the essentials of the new youth ministry strategy. If the cultural medium in which young people can identify with the essentials the most is through traditional Army sections and activities, then ALOVE affirms such mediums. Similarly, if the young person identifies more with a drum ‘n’ bass worship night, ALOVE affirms that too. Ultimately, the cultural medium is merely the context in which quality youth ministry is delivered – it is not the focus.
