God in the Shadows: Onward to Help Youth Find God in Tough Times this June

Onward Youth is returning this June, to help delegates put their hope in the ‘God in the Shadows’—even when things are tough. Included with each ticket is free access to DEEP DIVE, a complementary resource designed to help youth groups gain the skills and means to grow their love for God and to relate to the world with a gospel mindset. ​

Onward Youth is returning this Friday 25 June, to help delegates discover the ‘God in the Shadows’. This year, we have invited a varied and experienced panel of speakers to tackle the topic of suffering and hope. By opening the Scriptures, Onward Youth aims to equip the next generation to see God and put their hope in Him, even when things are tough.  

Hosted by Katoomba Christian Convention, Onward Youth is a conference that engages with culture and equips Christians to practically live out their faith in this world. For many people, 2020 was a year of wrestling and struggling in isolation, which is why we’ve chosen to address hope in suffering at Onward Youth 21.  

Where is God when I’m hurting?
How do I trust Him when things are tough?
How do I trust Him when things are tough?
Does He even care?

​Introducing Onward Deep Dive ​

The Onward team acknowledges that suffering is a huge topic and can’t be addressed in one conference. For this reason, we’re introducing Onward DEEP DIVE, a complementary resource that will teach youth how to faithfully posture themselves in a broken world.  

Included with each Onward 21 ticket is free access to DEEP DIVE which aims to help our youth: 

1) EXPLORE MORE with 3 Youth Group talks from our speakers. 
 
2) THINK DEEPER with 1 Min Take: 1-minute answers to key questions from our speakers. 
 
3) FEED THEMSELVES with a Bible reading and reflection/discussion questions. 
 
4) READ WIDER with snippets from relevant books. 
 
5) ENGAGE FURTHER with curated links to other books, articles and videos from other sources.
​ 
DEEP DIVE can be introduced into Youth Group programs or used for personal reflection before or after the conference. Either way, it is our hope that through Onward Youth 21 and DEEP DIVE, delegates will gain the skills and means to grow their love for God and to relate to the world with a gospel mindset.
