The world needs healthy urban leaders who:

  • Reflect diverse urban communities
  • Navigate the tension of today’s complex world
  • Create non-toxic church cultures
  • Promote systems that are equitable and just

The World Is Increasingly Young & Urban

The future is here. By 2045 the majority in the United States will become the minority when 51% of the population will be multi-ethnic. For those 18 and younger, that happens in 2020. 42% of the global population is under 25 years old, and 55% of the world’s population live in cities.

This is what the future of the church will look like.

But who will prepare, resource, and train the next generation of urban leaders like you to capture the hearts and minds through urban youth ministry with the Gospel?
