HOLY CONVERSATIONS: MONEY, CHURCH AND MILLENNIALS
April_FaithGivingJoin us for an exploration of stewardship and adults under age 40. Nathan Dungan, author and creator of “Share, Save, Spend” will be the keynote presenter and Katie Hays will be the featured preacher at the event which will help us consider how the church can positively impact younger adults and their relationship with money in particular, and the church in general. The event will also feature a panel – composed of participants who have been born after 1980, so that we can hear from these folks what they are actually thinking, rather than assuming we already know!
