Baptists Together and Young Adults
How are we working strategically to release young adults into missional ministry within the Baptist family?
Hearing the voice of young adults is something that would be almost universally deemed desirable, if not essential, amongst our family of churches.
Indeed, the challenge of reaching young adults aged 18-35 was identified as one of six priorities by our Baptist Union Council in November 2018.
There are some inspirational examples of this happening within Baptists Together on a local level, but all too often the voices that are heard on a national level have rarely included those of younger generations, until recently.
In response to this concern, the theme of our
Summer 2020 Baptists Together magazine was Reaching and Raising Young Adults. This magazine has a great selection of inspiring articles from and about this 'missing generation'.
Articles from the magazine, and other stories from young adults in our churches are listed below:
