5 ways to prepare for KYCK this weekend

The first weekend of KYCK 20 will begin this Saturday 26 September. Here are five ways that delegates can prepare for KYCK this week.  ​

This Saturday 26 September, high schoolers across Sydney and as far and wide as Canberra, Adelaide and Bathurst will gather for the KYCK youth conference livestream. Youth will hear from guest speakers Dave Jensen, Matt Sparks and Ben Staunton as they preach from the book of 1 Thessalonians on the theme “Past Present Future”. Delegates can expect three Bible talks, inspiring testimonies, a live Q&A panel and worship music led by Christian bands CityAlight (KYCK #1) and Gather (KYCK #2). 

Here are five ways that you can prepare for KYCK this weekend:  ​

1. Meditate on the book of 1 Thessalonians  

The book of 1 Thessalonians is filled with wisdom about how the gospel changes humanity’s past, present and future. Take some time this week to read the book and to reflect on the chapters that will be covered in the three talks:  

• TALK 1: 1 Thessalonians 1:1 – 2:12 | “Past” 
• TALK 2: 1 Thessalonians 3:6-13 | “Present” 
• TALK 3: 1 Thessalonians 4:13 – 5:11 | “Future” 

2. Listen to the worship songs on the KYCK 20 playlist  

Be encouraged and meditate on the conference theme by listening to this KYCK Spotify playlist which is available here. 

3. Pray for KYCK  

Please join us in praying for KYCK 20: 
​

• Pray for our speakers—that God will protect them ahead of KYCK, and that they will preach the gospel clearly and faithfully.  
• Pray that as the gospel is preached, the Spirit will work powerfully in the hearts of youth and that they will continue standing firm in the gospel in their schools and homes.  
• Pray that unbelieving youth will joyfully repent and surrender their lives to Jesus. 
• Pray that the livestream and AV will run smoothly on the day.  
• Pray that God will continue to use KYCK to raise up the next generation of disciples in Australia. 

4. Review the Group Leader Resource Pack 

If you are a Group or Youth Leader, make sure to review the Group Leader Resources Pack containing discussion questions, a prayer guide, suggested activities and how to lead youth in the response segment of the conference.  

5. Help us spread the word
   
If you have been blessed by the ministry of KYCK, why not help us spread the word to high schoolers all over Australia? For the first time ever, teenagers from different states can tune into KYCK and to be spurred on in their faith. You can share our posters and graphics on social media, bless your friends with the free footage from KYCK Live or become a KYCK ambassador by purchasing the 2020 tee or 2021 hoodie here.
