Engaging Gen Z Workshop

Join us for an interactive, in-person workshop that will equip you with practical tools and fresh perspectives for reaching the spiritually open. InterVarsity's Mark Matlock will share groundbreaking insights from Barna Group about societal trends and how to meaningfully connect with the 100 million Americans who are spiritually curious but not yet committed.
You’ll learn how to:
- Identify and understand the unique mindset of the spiritually curious, curious skeptics, and naturalists.
- Cultivate authentic conversations that respect curiosity while pointing toward Christ.
- Reframe evangelism for a generation that values exploration over certainty.
- Apply Barna’s latest research to your ministry context—whether on campus, in the church, or in the community.
Through guided discussions, case studies, and collaborative exercises, you’ll leave with a renewed vision for relational, respectful evangelism rooted in the gospel.
🗓️ Wednesday, September 11th, 11:45 a.m. - 1:15 p.m.
Cost = $10 (includes lunch)
