Masterclass 2014 kicked off this week, and once again top-notch speakers are challenging 15 and 16 year-olds to rise up as Christian leaders among their peers.

Dr John Dickson presented in NSW yesterday and will present again QLD and SA later this year. The historian, lecturer and Director of Centre for Public Christianity will show how history supports the reliability of the gospels. “At the first Masterclass three years ago I was struck by the fact that thinking teenagers would be interested in the historical background, that they would gobble it in a way I didn’t understand before.”

In QLD, as in NSW, Youthworks College founder Graham Stanton will show how the Bible brings about spiritual transformation. Stanton is currently researching how the imagination affects the way teenagers read the Bible.

Sarah Deutscher who directs Uber, an organisation studying faith and culture, will present at the Adelaide Masterclass. She will share how “the gospel is a story way bigger than any little story our culture tries to sell us.”

Eight different presenters, all experts in their fields, are ready to engage with Masterclass audiences in NSW (24 July), QLD (17 Sept) and SA (25 Sept). They’ll provide the young leaders with plenty to think about and use as they engage with their peers. Don’t miss this opportunity to invest in their future.

RSVPs close one week before each Masterclass event. Find out more and how to get your students and children involved by visiting the Masterclass Events page.
