New Youth Bible Study with Francis Chan on Courage

I have wanted to work on a youth project with Francis for a few years.  I know he has quite a history of teaching youth and youth leaders through conferences and events over the past 10 years.

I suspect that most of these students and leaders who have heard Francis teach are engaged by his passion for Jesus and his desire to follow the Bible and not cultural Christianity.  When I started talking with Francis about a possible youth project, the topic of COURAGE came up quickly.  Before long we were brainstorming about the type of courage needed to make it in today’s culture.  The project began taking shape and before long we had the outline to a 4-part series that was asking the question, “Do you have what it takes?”

I am proud of our creative team for finding some amazing stories of student who honestly share about the struggles they have in being courageous.  The candor and emotion of the stories is compelling.  And Francis is classic Francis.  He tells some stories about his own life as a student and constantly turns to scripture to remind us of the kind of courage Jesus calls us to.

This short trailer does a phenomenal job of capturing the essence of this resource:
