Why Another Conference?

Children’s ministry is exploding around the world

More kids live on our planet than at any other point in history, and churches are beginning to discover God’s heart for kids. The need to provide training, resources and fresh perspectives on trends, skills and best practices is more urgent than ever. This conference will help you prepare for children’s ministry anywhere on the globe.

The world is changing

Information is expanding at an amazing rate. New technologies are available daily, while new obstacles to the gospel and global challenges for kids present themselves at every turn. This conference will help people prepare to meet challenges and the opportunities presented by these changes.

Kids are in crisis

More than 60% of children live in at-risk situations around the world. From child soldiers to orphans, child laborers to those facing poverty and disease, the challenges are heartbreaking. Who will help them? The call of Christians to be at the forefront of meeting these practical needs with compassion and practical help is greater than ever before. But how do we do this well? What will we need? This conference will provide training, resources, skills, encouragement and perspective to be part of caregiving to bring lasting transformation.

Kids need Christ

Above all, at least two-thirds of the children on our planet do not know Christ. And every second of every day, three more children are born into families that do not know Jesus. Who will tell them about him? In addition, children within many churches are leaving the faith as they grow into adulthood. Many of the unreached are within established congregations! How can we reach kids for life? This conference will offer tools, resources and hope for truly reaching every child with the life-changing love of Christ.

We need to work together.
