PASS THE BATON: Week 2: Invest and Empower the Passion in Young Leaders Now

What if the future of the church isn’t someday… what if it’s right now?
What if the next Paul-and-Timothy story begins with you — handing off the baton of faith to someone younger, hungrier, and ready to run?

Here’s the truth... This generation isn’t just watching culture — they’re creating it.
They’re running podcasts while we’re still figuring out how to use the copier.
They’re editing videos between soccer practice and homework.
They’re preaching the Gospel in 30-second TikToks while we’re debating whether to try Instagram.

And the question is: Are we making room for them?
Or are we standing in their way?

At Beaver Creek, our kids, teens, young adults, single parents, middle-aged believers, and older saints ALL have a place.
But are we modeling a faith they can follow?
Are we recognizing the gifts God already planted in them?
Are we giving them meaningful places to serve, lead, and build?

Jesus said: “Let the children come. Don’t stop them.”
Paul said: “Entrust it to others who will teach others also.”

So I’ve got to ask: Will we pass the baton, or will we drop it?
