What Participants Say

ABOUT OUR EVENTS

  • THINQ has equipped me with topics and information that has allowed me to be prepared ahead of time when I have the opportunity to pour into NextGen thinkers. It has also reinforced my belief that ministry is just as impactful in the marketplace as it is in the pews.

    Amy Zackowski

  • We go to church every Sunday and my sons don’t often sing or participate during worship. But at Nxt Gen Summit, I cried as I watched both of them sing at the top of their lungs with their hands raised. They were truly ushered into worship. It was incredible!

    Nxt Gen Summit Participant

  • This experience showed me the importance of holding grace & truth tightly together. It’s only in this tension can Christians experience true freedom & the ability to live out their calling.

    - Mandy Santos

  • I love the intelligent dialogue of THINQ. These thoughts always go on in my head as I try to adapt a Holy Spirit sieve to everything I hear. It’s nice to share in those internal dialogues out loud with each other, Fellow Christians, which are trying to discern the most honoring life in Jesus.

    Wilson W. Smith

  • Have always loved the conference…have been to 5+. Love the exposure to new creative thinking, and also the stimulation with so many topics and views.
