Will you be at shift this year?
Shift is a student ministry conference hosted by the willow creek association and will be April 22nd-24th of 2009.
This year’s conference in my opinion looks like one of the best put together student ministry conferences in the last several years.
Speakers such as Francis Chan (Breaking Free From Complacency), Mark Holmen, Bubba Thurman (Connecting the Church and Home), David Kinnamen, Mark Matlock (Engaging Culture for Effective Ministry), Scott Rubin, Kara Powell (Transformation that Sticks), Bill Hybels (Leadership Axioms) and Marcus Buckingham (The Truth About You) will all be there and will challenge us to the next level of where we are.
While at the Shift conference you will be able to attend 3 different breakout sessions with 14 options for each session. Okay I going to be bias and urge you to attend the following breakout session if you attend shift. C066 Developing Teenagers Through Spiritual Formation. In this session Richy Fisher, my boss and friend will help us discover what we need to do to assess spiritual formation in our youth groups. Oh and I’ll also be there so come and say hi.
