Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to once again explore the use of movies in a church context youth ministry, with an accent on the diverse benefits which can be achieved. The author will do so by integrating adjacent aspects, relevant to the topic, as: pop culture, image–driven culture, generational research. Finally he argues for a different way of integrating movies as a resource for youth ministry, by using them in the counseling process of ministering to troubled youth.
