Faith Formation in a Performance-Driven Culture
Youth bring incredible energy, enthusiasm, and relatability to ministry, yet they are also shaped by a culture that measures their value through performance—on the field, in the classroom, and online. Drawing on insights from sports ministry and theological leadership development frameworks, this session explores how these pressures influence faith, identity, and leadership. It will also offer practical ways to disciple youth volunteers and young leaders in a performance-driven culture.
