The stories we’ve heard often repeat themselves. A young woman ages out of the youth group she’s been connected with for years and feels like she’s been marooned. A high school graduate relocates to a different town for college and struggles to feel a sense of belonging at her new church. A young man with a heart for ministry longs for a meaningful relationship with his older community but struggles to feel acknowledged on Sunday mornings. Older generations struggle to welcome younger parishioners into their churches. It’s not difficult to understand why. There are cultural differences. Communication can be challenging. But ultimately, it’s because churches aren’t equipped to build bridges across the pews.
Generation Spark was born out of this need. We want to help churches that are struggling to break this cycle. We offer hands-on coaching, practical strategies, and extensive support to help all generations form meaningful relationships that ultimately result in sustained, lifelong faith. We’d love to see the grace of Jesus grow in your community as you learn to cross generational boundaries in the spirit of care and discipleship.
We believe that all generations of leaders can learn from, support, and grow in faith together. We also believe that giving our young people a place to lay their heads isn’t just “planning for the future.” It’s an expression of the very Gospel we live by.
And we’re here to help you live into this reality.
