I have spoken with several conference attendees and everyone felt the material shared was excellent and relevant in so many areas. Thanks again for sacrificing your time and sharing your experience with us. It was powerful, challenging and should cause each person to have God’s perspective on Millennials and Gen Zers. Without a doubt one of the best conferences I’ve attended." --James C., Area Director, World Team |

Understanding How Culture Is Changing
(and Impacting Global Missions) For the first time in North American history, we are sending global workers from a post-Christian, post-missions context. This session considers the challenges and opportunities we face in this new cultural landscape. Missions Mobilization & Retention Strategies Mobilizing and retaining a new generation of global workers will require informed responses and innovative approaches. This session looks at the strategies that help Gen Z understand, engage, and participate meaningfully in what God is doing globally. Multigenerational Ministry Teams With up to five generations serving together on teams today, differences can create challenges, but also provide opportunities. This session discusses how to help age diverse teams appreciate differences, maximize strengths, and enjoy serving together.

Understanding How Culture Is Changing (and Impacting the North American Church) For the first time in North American history, we are doing ministry in a postmodern, post-Christian context. This session considers the challenges and opportunities we face in this new cultural landscape. Gen Z (and Gen Alpha) Traits & Mindsets Despite an increase in anxiety, loneliness, and uncertainty in young people today, Gen Z (b. 1996-2010) is incredibly creative, pragmatic, and openminded. This session provides a deeper understanding of Gen Z (and Gen Alpha, b. 2011-) learning styles, perspectives on the world, and unique skills that help us equip them to serve and thrive. Innovation in Ministry/Missions Contexts As we face increasing uncertainty, constant change, and quickly emerging needs in our world today, new approaches to learning, innovating, and responding are needed. This session presents practical tools for finding powerful solutions to tough challenges in any ministry context. The Coach Approach to Leading As the noise and distractions in our world have increased, we often find it harder to take time to process our thoughts and emotions, think critically, find solutions, and discern God's direction in our lives. This session presents a coach approach to leading and encouraging those around you that promotes reflection, self awareness, and deep understanding and growth. |
