Free Downloads Growing Young: Six Essential Strategies To Help Young People Discover And Love Your Church
Unleashing the Passion of Young People in Your Church Is Possible! Churches are losing both members and vitality as increasing numbers of young people disengage. Based on groundbreaking research with over 250 of the nation's leading congregations, Growing Young provides a strategy any church can use to involve and retain teenagers and young adults. It profiles innovative churches that are engaging 15- to 29-year-olds and as a result are growing--spiritually, emotionally, missionally, and numerically. Packed with both research and practical ideas, Growing Young shows pastors and ministry leaders how to position their churches to engage younger generations in a way that breathes vitality, life, and energy into the whole church.Visit www.churchesgrowingyoung.org for more information.

"The truth is, every church needs young people. Their passion enriches the soil around them. The curiosity they bring to Scripture and the authenticity they bring to relationships keep your church's teaching fresh and fellowship fruitful.Young people also need a thriving church. A thriving church both grounds them in community and sends them out to serve.Your church needs young people, and they need your church. One without the other is incomplete." (From page 14 of "Growing Young")Many youth workers have read FYI's Sticky Faith materials or used them in some capacity in their church and youth ministries. Growing Young is the next phase in their work, where the team has worked tireless hours interviewing and researching what characteristics a church should have in order to not just keep young people (ages 15-29) attending church but also having them become a vibrant part of the church DNA. This is where the idea of "Growing Young" comes from.The folks at FYI have read dozens (at one point in the book they state 80) of books and spent time with over 350 churches conducting interviews with adults, young people, and church leaders seeking to determine what has worked. If you want to spend 10,000 hours reading books and doing all sorts of research to figure out how to help your church attract, keep and empower young people then go ahead. OR, you could buy this book and learn from the hard work the folks at FYI have done.I love the stories included that give hope to the reader. Throughout the book there are dozens of practical ways churches can grow young. Each chapter has loads of statistics to back up what they're saying, along with several tips for growing young.
