Different ways to engage kids and teens with mission

How do we open up the idea of mission - both worldwide and right on our doorstep - to our children and teenagers?

As our kids are starting to connect with God and discover their own journey with Jesus, how can we introduce the idea of sharing their faith with others?

In this pop-up small group, designed for parents and carers, Parenting for Faith’s founder Rachel Turner shared how we can frame mission as a natural part of everyday living with God. She talked about how we can define ‘mission’ and ‘evangelism’ and break these terms down for our kids – as well as how we can spot their natural giftings, and encourage them to use those to shine God’s light in the world.
