Not Beyond Reach - The Gospel & the Next Generation
Friday, October 16 | 11:30 AM–3:00 PM | $35
Today’s younger generations are growing up in an increasingly post-Christian culture. Many in Gen Z and Gen Alpha are apathetic, cynical, or even hostile toward the Church—and yet they are also navigating profound questions of identity, purpose, loneliness, and hope. How can we faithfully share the Good News of Jesus with a generation that may never walk through the doors of a church?
Join pastors, youth and young adult leaders, missions leaders, and others from across the greater Seattle area for Not Beyond Reach, a practical and encouraging workshop focused on reaching the next generation. Hosted by Aaron Bauer of Issaquah Christian Church, the afternoon will include a youth leader panel, lunch, and a snapshot of what is happening right now among students at the University of Washington.
Our featured presenters, Filipe & Allison Machado of Steiger International, will help us better understand our increasingly secular, post-Christian culture and equip us with practical tools for sharing Jesus in ways that connect with Gen Z and Gen Alpha.
Come ready to listen, learn, exchange ideas, and leave better equipped for the mission ahead—because the next generation is not beyond reach.
