Questioning Youth Ministry? Helping Students Build Faith Counter-intuitively

(Seminar Series #1)

Nov 21 4:00 PM-5:30 PM

Nashville

We all know the statistics are grim—many students walk away from their faith after they leave us. Is it culture? Parents? What if it’s…us? Could it be that our very approach to student ministry is part of the problem? Join us as we have bold conversations around the counterintuitive ideas of questioning, doubt, crisis, and faith. We know this current student generation processes information in dramatically different ways. Are we asking the questions that only we have the answers for? How wide does that frame a student’s faith? Would students stay engaged in their faith if we embraced doubt rather than avoiding it or skipping over it? What if your ministry to students instigated great questions that weren’t easily answered? How did Jesus interact with his followers compared to our methods of making disciples? These are just a few of the questions we’ll discuss in our time together. This is a seminar for those who are interested in re-imagining their ministry approach so every student can continue to experience a transforming faith in Jesus—long after they leave us.
