YOUTH, CULTURE AND MISSION LECTURES

YCML are once again running two days of lectures for youth workers who are
interested in taking their theology and practice that little bit deeper.

We have chosen *image* to be the theme for this year’s lectures.

We believe that young people are made in the image of God, but that we live
in a culture whose influence readily distorts that image in them.

We have three excellent lecturers who will each bring their perspective on
this critical subject.

*Dr Crispin Fletcher-Louis* is a lecturer at the Westminster Theological
Centre and will be starting the day reflecting theologically on what it
means for a young person to be created in the Image of God.

*Nigel Pimlott* works for Frontier Youth Trust and is studying for a PhD; he
will be exploring the subject of societal sin, asking why society has such a
negative view of young people and exploring how that outworks in young
people’s view of themselves.

*Rachel Gardner* will complete our team of lecturers; she is the director of
Romance Academy and will be exploring the very contemporary issue of the
sexualisation of young people.

We are once again pleased to be offering two venues for this day of
lectures, we are being hosted by King’s College, London on Tuesday 15 March
and by the

*Leed’s Church Institute on Wednesday 16 March*. Tickets are £30, including
lunch and refreshments and we are happy to offer a concessionary ticket for
just £20.

Booking is available online at
