Don’t. Lose. Faith!
“I never lost faith in Christ, but I have lost faith in the church.” (From the book You Lost Me. by David Kinnaman)
What can we do to raise up the next generation of leaders for our churches?
Church Doctor Ministries, with the support of The Lutheran Foundation (of northeast Indiana), is sponsoring Compass Events for parents and young adults, pastors and church leaders, to introduce them to SEND North America.
Here’s why:
Many parents have young adult children who are “wandering” from the faith.
There are many young adults who have a strong call to make a difference in our challenged world.
There is a significant trend of young adults who are seeking God’s direction for their lives.
Research shows that to reach the next generation, the church needs to find what young people are gifted and called to do and then do all they can to nurture and develop that calling outside of normal academic institutions. (Read more about this in the book, You Lost Me.)
SEND (Servants Equipping New Disciples), based on John 20:21, is a 10-month, hands-on discipleship and missionary training experience for young adults.
Join us at an upcoming Compass Event to learn more.
All Compass Events are free and open to the public.
