How can we help young people engage with the Bible in a way that connects with everyday life?
These are two very important questions that the Evangelical Alliance’s *essential project is trying to address. Working with a variety of organisations the Alliance is seeking to support and equip youth leaders, parents and anyone else seeking to engage young people with biblical truth.
The hub of the *essential project is a website which recommends resources and training courses as well as providing responses to the difficult questions that young people often ask.
For example: Do only Christians go to heaven? Don’t all religions lead to God? Does God ever change his mind? Why do we sing songs that say God is beautiful?
