2025 Theme

The Art of We

The Art of We

We can do more together. But, “together” is often easier said than done. Whether it’s dreaming with your volunteer team, partnering with parents, planning with your staff, or teaming up with other churches — you know that there’s an art to leading alongside other humans.

This April, we’ll explore one simple thing every church can do to change everything for the next generation. You’ll leave with a big vision for what family ministry can be, a new perspective on discipleship, and start-this-week tools you can use to get everyone in your ministry moving as a WE and not a ME.
