  17. Vision 2018 Everybody are helping the change from an adult focus church to a “Growing Young” church

  18. Vision 2018 “the best way to change a society, or even the world, is through congregations dedicated to living out Jesus” commands to love God and love others.”

  19. Vision 2018 If we transform a country by transforming our church by transforming our work with young people, then transforming our work with young people can transform our society and even our world. (Growing Young – Fuller Research Team)

  20. Vision 2018 College student: “There is never a time, even in just catching a meal with someone from our church, that the gospel doesn’t come into the conversation. The quality of the conversation with people from my church is consistently Christ-centered. The gospel comes up everywhere.”

  21. Vision 2018 Young people ask the following questions: Who am I? Where do I fit? What difference do I make?

  22. Vision 2018 The first question is about identity The second is a question of belonging The third is a question about purpose

  23. Vision 2018 Church is boring Focus is on adults Church work only on spiritual forget about body and soul The church judge young people outward appearances We do not challenge youth to live for Christ Do we really know their challenges?

  24. Vision 2018 “What sets churches that grow young apart is not the absence of struggling young people. It’s that when their young people fall, the faith community is there to help them find their footing and then walk with them on the quest to know and express who they are.” (Fuller – Growing Young)

  25. Vision 2018 “For those wondering if churches that grow young inevitably reach other generations less effectively, the answer is an emphatic no. In a kingdom win/win, stronger ministry to young people bulks up the ministry muscles of the entire congretation, and vice versa.”

  26. Vision 2018 We are each other’s friends growing together towards God’s fullness “Our pastor doesn’t treat us like we’re kids….He treats me like I’m his younger friend.” (Mark 23yrs)
