Not Just the Future: Empowering Youth in the Church Today

We often hear that young people are the future of the church. But what if we began seeing them as an essential part of the church today?

In this conversation, we'll explore what it looks like to move beyond youth ministry as a separate program and toward intentional integration, discipleship, and empowerment of the next generation. How can we create opportunities for students to belong, serve, lead, and take ownership of their faith within the broader church community?

Together, we'll challenge some traditional approaches to youth ministry and discuss practical ways church leaders can invest in young people, not simply preparing them to participate in the church someday, but inviting them to actively shape its life and mission today.

Why So Much Church Conflict Comes Down to Two People Who Each Thought It Was Their Call - Drew Richy - SynergosXP

A lot of church conflict is not about bad intent. It is about two people who each assumed they were the one to decide. In this ZoomIn, we will walk through a simple framework (DCI) that makes clear who decides, who gets consulted, and who just needs to be informed, so your team stops stepping on each other and starts moving together. You will leave with a tool you can put to work with your staff that same week.
