One of the nation's leading preachers and teachers of preachers will help us reflect on the importance of crafting messages that are fully embodied, that engage multiple intelligences and that are attentive to the different stages of cognitive development among our listeners.

Youth Ministry: Now - Discussing Sin with Youth
When ministries look at how they discus sin with young people it frequently gets framed as doing bad things. When sin is framed in this way we try to bend their will and push them towards obedience turning youth ministry into sin management and an attempt to make young people be better. Andy Root encourages us to look at sin as a state of brokenness and isolation rather than just "bad things". Sin is a state of being and loss of relationship whereas sinning is the bad things that we do.

Nurturing Spiritual Habits with Youth
Youth don't so much want to be lectured about God as they want to experience God. This experience comes from walking with God each day, not just on Sunday mornings. What are the spiritual disciplines, practices and traditions that help bring us closer to God and how do they work for today's youth? We'll explore ways to support our youth in developing and following their own "rule of life."
Michael Bird, Rector, Christ Church, Bronxville, NY

Transformation through Pilgrimage
Youth long for experiences that will take them outside of their cramped, every day experience and connect them with something larger than themselves, with the transcendent love of God. Skip Masback will guide us through the nuts and bolts "best practices" that prepare the ground for mission trips in which our young people are "pilgrims not tourists, learners not teachers, listeners not talkers and receivers not givers."
