The School Choice Debate

Just because you send your kids to a Christian school does not guarantee they will serve Jesus, and just because you send your kids to a public school does not guarantee they will rebel against him.

Are We in the Midst of a Gen Z Awakening?

It’s not polished or loud, but if you listen closely, from university chapels in the U.S. to underground house churches in the Middle East, you’ll hear it: a hunger for truth, a yearning for something real.

David Washington’s Top Books on Youth Ministry

Adolescence and teen years are a small window of time that will fundamentally shape who young people will become as adults. The church cannot afford to miss the opportunity to guide those under our care.

Surrounded Leadership

Sometimes big change masquerades as small change. We go to the meetings as we are directed by our electronic calendars, but we increasingly see these commitments and our to-do lists as God’s call on our time as we develop these priorities in prayer.

How Families Serve

It’s a great paradox—the way up is down. True greatness is expressed in serving, not in dominating.

Plug Into God’s Power

A church that prays is a church that changes its focus from self to the Savior and redeems the time for God's will in the church's life.

This Isn’t How They Told Us It Would Be

If you are no longer sure if you can believe in God, or if you’re beginning to doubt Christianity, we don’t assume you’ve lost your mind.

Practice the Language

Every person we translate Jesus to has two options: to follow Him or stay where they are. We do our part in prayer and partnership with Jesus.

Growing Relationships Rather Than Numbers

When a church focuses on the person as a whole and not the transactional relationship often, they see Christ in the person and not the person inside the local church, which begins to tare the veil of developing relationships to become pew warmers.

Suffering

What we see on earth is not God’s will. In the last couple years, the impact of sin has been significantly experienced at a worldwide level.

Coming Back From Decline

You must focus not on what is missing but instead on what matters: the person in front of you and the community that needs your church.
