Ministering to A Fatherless Generation
taught by Milton Campbell, Urban Youth Workers Institute
Nationwide 60% of children in the city are growing up with female heads of households without a father present (in some cities it’s as high as 77%). This workshop will equip you to assist those affected by fatherlessness in a holistic way. We will explore fatherlessness from a multidimensional angle: Who does it affect and how? How can we work together as a community of believers to address the issue?

Understanding Hip-Hop to Reach the Hip-Hop Influenced Generation
taught by Ken Godbolt, Crossover Church
Hip-hop is here. The beats ring out in our cities. Hip-hop culture is all around us: in the clothes youth wear, in the music they listen to, in the ways they express themselves. It is the language they speak, the rhythm they move to. It is a culture familiar with the hard realities of our broken world; the generation raised with rap knows about the pain. How will they hear Christ’s message of truth and hope if we don’t speak their language? And how can we speak their language if we don’t understand and embrace their culture? Hear the beat. Join the beat. Become the beat that brings truth and hope to a hungry, hurting generation. Learn practical, timely, and transferable tools to use in translating the Gospel message.
