What's Your Quotient?

Radical hospitality requires intentional invitation and welcome. When we truly welcome people, we're doing more than greeting them at the door. We're connecting them to a community of believers and letting them know they are noticed and valued. We're receiving them as if we're meeting Christ.

For summer fun, take this quiz to test your Welcoming Quotient, a measure of how welcoming you are in several aspects of your life.

IGNITING YOUTH

Teen Welcoming

Igniting Ministry now offers a new teen welcoming program, Igniting Youth. As with its adult program, this new program offers a handbook, free customizable materials, training resources, and training options -- but this is where similarities end.

Remember, this is not just about teens and youth groups. It's for a generation of young people who need you; who need to hear the word of God in a language they understand -- a language of texting, blogs and social networking. Welcome to the brave, new world of teen welcoming, Igniting Ministry style. explore more | press center | request DVD
