Just Two Weeks Away

Andy Root & Enroute

On Thursday, October 28 Youthfront will once again host Andy Root for a Youth Worker Training Day in the morning. In the afternoon, Barefoot will provide an optional, bonus Enroute training workshop - details below.

Andy will spend the morning and into the early afternoon with us, discussing material coming out of another of his newer books The Promise of Despair. Titled the "The Melting of Identity," Andy describes our conversation as such:

"One of the greatest pursuits for late modern people (especially those of younger generations) is to construct an identity for themselves. But as we have seen recently, the fluidity of our culture does not allow for our identities to be carved in stone. Instead our identities are always transitioning with new jobs, new marriages, and new ideas. The cultural necessity of identity transition can be painful and difficult; it is easy to feel lost within the transition. What then should the church do?"

There is no cost to you for this event, but a $10 donation is encouraged. Barefoot Ministries will once again partner with us, and will graciously provide lunch from Oklahoma Joes.

Mike, not sure if you remember me, but we met at Rock the Light in the first youth pastor meet up. Talked a bit about your book and my excitement for the vision for Rock the Light. Anyways, I'll be at this training with one of my volunteer leaders. Looking forward to it!

Hey Jesse,

I'm so psyched about you coming to this training day. Our conversation at Rock the Light was a highlight for me. So glad you're coming up from Hutchinson, it will be so worth the effort.

Peace,

Mike

Hi Mike. How are you? I have attended National Youth Worker Conference and have been to some of your prayer sessions in the chapel. I got a couple of slide projectors and I was wondering if I could pay you to make copies of your slides that you use for the chapel? I know it is a lot of work. thanks,eric

Hey Eric,

Good to hear from you. Thanks for coming to The Sanctuary. Lilly Lewin is the one who put together the projector and slides. Check with her about getting copies. Her e-mail address is [email protected]
