Equipping Students to Follow Christ Through Life's Seven Unique Stages

Brian Burchik

Popular culture exalts youth and young adulthood as the pinnacle of life, creating a vacuum of long-term vision and realistic expectations for students today. Within this youth-oriented culture, how are we as Christian educators preparing students for a lifetime of faithfulness to Christ, far beyond graduation? In this session, we will examine the unique opportunities and obstacles of seven predictable stages of life. Together, we will use this framework to consider how we can best orient students lives, providing clarity to their present while also casting a hopeful but realistic vision for their future as followers of Christ.
