The Truth Exposed
Chap Clark
In this session, Chap will unpack the latest data from the ongoing Hurt study with American teens. One of the many discoveries is that program-oriented, agenda-driven ministry programs often miss what young people need most – to know that they are seen and treated as vital and valuable participants in the life and soul of the church.

Coffee Break

Those Kids Chap is Describing Sound a Lot Like Me
Steve Sherwood
In this session Steve will consider the implications of the Hurt study for people working in youth ministry. Specifically, what does it mean for us if most of the youth workers in the church are late adolescents themselves?
