Forming the whole person vocation, leadership and young adultsBrian Beckstrom
If you were born after 1984 there is only a 10% chance that you will be part of a church today (Source: Alan Roxburgh, Following God). This sobering statistic captures the urgency of the church’s challenge in the 21st century. But it also provides an opportunity to ask, “How might God be reshaping the Church through these changes?” In this session we will explore the landscape of young adult faith development, and some signs of hope through vocational exploration and leadership development.

Making converts, gaining decisions, does not equal making disciples. It is essential we look at the right ideas, in the right way to make real disciples of King Jesus.

Shifting Stats: Shaking the Church. World Vision Canada's 2014 Church Leaders...WVCNCE
Gain a bird’s-eye view of Canada’s new cultural context and a different lens through which to re-frame the Gospel.
In spring 2014, more than 800 church leaders in 10 Canadian cities participated in the church leaders forum: "Shifting Stats: Shaking the Church."
Using the latest Canadian statistics and church research, Dr. Don Moore, World Vision’s National Church Ambassador, painted the picture of our new cultural and religious landscape. Bruxy Cavey, author and Teaching Pastor at The Meeting House, then challenged our thinking on how to not only present but also live out the Gospel given these new realities.
Since 2007, World Vision Canada has offered these half-day church leader events to serve the local church. We strive to offer relevant ministry topics and host a space for honest conversation and collaboration among local leaders.
