This vintage spiral-bound songbook, “Sing with Young Life” by Victor Gumma, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the Young Life ministry and its impact on youth culture in the mid-20th century. Founded in 1941, Young Life sought to introduce adolescents to Christianity through engaging activities and relationships. This songbook, likely published in the 1960s or 1970s, would have been a vital resource for Young Life clubs across the country, facilitating sing-alongs and fostering a sense of community among participants. Beyond its practical purpose, the book represents a era when youth movements and counterculture flourished, and organizations like Young Life sought to connect with young people through music and shared experiences. For collectors interested in American religious history, youth culture, or midcentury ephemera, this well-preserved songbook offers a tangible link to an influential and enduring ministry.
