What
is Youth Evangelism Association?
Youth Evangelism Association is a network of ministries to teenagers
using a conservative approach in ministry, methods and standards. Each
affiliate is locally governed, with the right to develop programs of
evangelism as God directs, holding high standards of Christian separation,
Bible teaching and victorious Christian life-styles. Local churches
and interdenominational ministries to teenagers affiliated with YEA
use a variety of ideas and methods in a constant endeavor to reach teenagers
effectively.
YEA goes literally across America through the evangelistic outreaches
of staff members of YEA affiliates wherever they minister. YEA is world-wide
through Teen Missions International and other affiliates, going into
40 to 60 foreign countries each year.
The
goal is to have YEA affiliated local church youth ministries and or
interdenominational youth ministries all across America.

1. We believe the Bible is the inspired, the infallible, authoritative
Word of God.
2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons:
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
3. We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth,
in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death
through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension
to the right hand of the Father, in His personal return to power and
glory.

by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost
unto the resurrection of damnation.
