Well most of the good churches I know don't really have "youth pastors" but have elders...I am pretty certain they have youth though, and you could learn about the ministry first by being a member there.

Have you checked out First Baptist Tolleson? It is the church where Dr. James White's father has pastored- but due to his health I don't know what the current status is. http://fsbaptisttolleson.org/

The church that Dr. White is an elder at is http://www.prbc.org, and it is in downtown Phoenix, which may be a bit of a long haul but worth it. Don Fry is the pastor.


True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin
