The Next conference this last saturday was amazing. 270+ people committed to next-generation ministry gathered at Crown College in Minnesota for a day of encouraging networking and training. We're already gearing up for February 8, 2014!! For now, here are samples of the very strong feedback we received:
“Loved it! I work with students in the public
schools and these seminars have been extremely beneficial for me in my
profession."
“It definitely challenged me to continue to seek
for answers and different ways that can magnify God’s Kingdom in how I’m
involved with youth ministry."
“The workshops we attended were amazing! They
were filled with meaningful and practical information. Really enjoyed the
workshops!”
“My experience at Next was great! It was very
encouraging to get together just to sharpen our skills and learn more about
reaching out. It was really welcoming and inspiring.”

confirmed and revealed to me the needs for our ministry."

to network and be encouraged by others in Christ. The content was amazing and
the atmosphere was supportive.”
“Motivated me to engage more with others at my
church.”

about their topics. I especially liked the real life applications.”
“I especially enjoyed the intentional mentoring
[workshop] because it didn’t just focus on our relationships with kids but how
the well-being of the leaders multiplies our discipleship.”

the ministry department almost word for word being discussed and talked about
from people doing ministry in different contexts!”

of time to be encouraged and challenged.”

volunteer team to gain a broader vision. Turns out that I needed this too.”

interested in the same thing I am, and to connect on a spiritual and vocational
level."
