As has been widely reported, American churches of all denominations are losing the adherence of youth and young adults. While young adults ages 18-29 make up 17 percent of the U.S. population, they represent less than 10 percent of churchgoers. But that’s not the way it has to be.
In this one-hour webinar, Kara Powell, director of the Fuller Youth Institute at Fuller Theological Seminary, shared her team’s research of over 250 congregations that are unlocking the potential of teenagers and emerging adults, and offered practical tips for engaging youth and youth adults in your church.
