Global secularization presents a challenge to missions worldwide. As a result, a large cultural gap exists between the Church and secularized society. Come learn about the influences and worldview of the Global Youth Culture—the largest global culture ever to exist—and the implications global secularization has on world missions.
Evangelism
Everyday conversations are the foundational unit of evangelism. Join us to grow in your ability to share Jesus in the off-the-cuff, spontaneous interactions of your daily life.
We often learn languages to share the gospel to different cultures. But while we speak so the ears can hear, do we miss speaking in a way the heart can understand? Learn to share the gospel through the lens of four major worldviews: guilt and innocence, shame and honor, fear and power, and unclean and clean.
Jesus courageously gave his life for us. How can we do the same for him? Come learn how to realistically, practically surrender your life to Jesus and why this is one of the most important things we can do.
Our current culture pits freedom of speech against safe spaces. Yet we know that God provides both perfect safety and the gift of free will—which includes speech. Come explore how we can follow Jesus into speaking truth AND protecting the vulnerable on campus.
Living in the shadow of the empire, messages about the good life come to us in many different ways. Some are subtle. Some are powerful, but it never stops. Still, Jesus has good news—even better news to share! Learn how to share this good news in a way that cuts through the lies and offers palpable hope today.
Often the hardest part about sharing the gospel is getting from “How’s your day?” to “Can I tell you about Jesus?” Come gain the skills to comfortably and confidently guide conversations from small talk to God talk.
We need to be ready to follow Jesus and equip others as we have been equipped. Hear stories and learn of how you can prepare yourself and others to live a life of discipleship for Jesus and spread the gospel.
In Luke 10, Jesus calls 72 ordinary disciples for mission training. He selects these faithful (and anonymous) disciples and trains them in four mission tasks. The results were earthshaking. Come learn how you can be faithful and fruitful today in your evangelistic context.
Generations have swung back and forth between the extremes of a Christian faith that emphasizes either evangelism or justice. But we are called to be holistic, incarnational witnesses. Hear the gospel’s call to announce and demonstrate the kingdom of God through word (evangelism), sign (supernatural), and deed (justice).
