Faith & Gen Alpha
As our CruCon training course, Faith & Gen Alpha is a twelve-week deep dive into our vision for discipleship in the digital age. Each cohort of trainees will explore the cultural deformation taking place among the next generation through the spiritual and social colonization of the big tech industry, while also unlocking five practices for initiating youth into becoming resilient disciples of Jesus. Along the way, participants will be trained in the why, what, and how of leading a CruCon series in their own context.
