Theme: Some to be Shepherds.
Jesus gives us the perfect example of Shepherd leadership and it is a tough example to follow. He shows humility and at the same time strength and conviction. He shows mercy and grace and yet a willingness to rebuke and call for change.
Ministers and parents everywhere are talking about building faith at home, but what does that look like? At the D6 Conference many of today’s leading ministers and faith at home experts will be providing real “how to” answers to some of the most Frequently Asked Questions we face in the church today.
For nearly 40 years Youth Specialties has worked alongside Christian youth workers from just about every denomination and youth-serving organization around the world. Each year we serve more than 100,000 youth workers worldwide through our training seminars and conventions, resources and curriculum, and online content.
We host three conventions each fall. They are each known as NYWC – National Youth Workers Convention. In 2009, the Conventions will be held in Los Angeles, CA; Cincinnati, OH; and Atlanta, GA. We expect 3,000-5,000 attendees at each convention.
Real Hope isn’t wishful thinking about an uncertain future. It’s a confidence grounded in the past that gives a thirst for the present and a certainty for the future. Real hope is in Christ – we experience it, and we want the young people of our nation and world to experience it too!
