Do Mission Events Really Have a Long-Lasting Impact On the Younger Generation? - by Evi Rodemann

Abstract

Thousands of dollars are spent on Christian events and mission conferences globally. Very little has been researched on their impact. If results are discussed, they are often short-term goals. This article examines the long-lasting impact that mission events for young people can produce, what should be measured, and tools to measure desired impact and outcomes. Data will be drawn from four European youth mission conferences called Mission-Net, including findings from conference surveys.
