EVANGELISM
ALPHA YOUTH SERIES
The Alpha Youth Series is a 9-week series that creates a space, online or in-person, where youth (ages 13-18) are excited to bring their friends for a conversation about Jesus.” We love Youth Alpha, we believe in its potential to bring about renewal to our region. What would it look like for your group to start an Alpha?
ALPHA LIFE ON PURPOSE SERIES
LIFE ON PURPOSE is designed to serve teens by helping them make the connection between meaning, belonging, impact, and the joy of having their friends come to know Jesus.
This four-episode series works well as an envisioning and training resource for youth groups in mission and evangelism. It’s designed as a lead up towards an evangelistic or missional initiative such as an outreach event, missions trip, or student-led Alpha.
