Part two of Adam’s reflections on the theme of ‘Gifted for God’s Glory’, exploring how using our gifts is part of our worship.

At NextGen North 2023, Adam Young, associate minister at All Saints' Church in North Ferriby near Hull, explored the theme ‘Gifted for God’s Glory’. He shared some really helpful principles for discerning how God might use and the gifts he gives us in his global plan.

At NextGen Scotland 2022, our theme was One God, One World: many ways to share the love of Jesus. We’ve collected together some resources to help you keep exploring how God might want to use you in his global plan.

Christians, with a ‘living hope’ in Jesus, are also to be defined and shaped by our shared future. This future is his coming multicultural, multilingual kingdom. It should shape the way we see international people around us in the places we live and study and work and hang out. But how do we actually do this in practice? Here are 5 tips - dare to try them! 

Have you ever felt like you don’t have what it takes to be a witness for Jesus? Do you think of yourself as ordinary? Then you are in good company. The early church was ordinary too.

I made a point of quizzing wise missionary veterans who had served overseas for decades: "How did you know where to go?" In almost every case, they began by talking about being 'called'. To be honest, I found it pretty dissatisfying. It left me more puzzled: 'What actually is this 'calling'? And how do I know if I'm called? Will I see writing in the sky?' They spoke about it as if it was obvious, but it wasn't to me.

Working out your calling in life can feel like a pressing but also complicated issue. We don’t always get the clear leading we’re after, and there are all kinds of opinions out there about how we should figure out what to do with our lives. But what if there’s a simpler approach?
