What keeps young people in the church? Why do they leave? Find answers to these questions in this week’s ANN In-Depth.

This episode is based on the “Reach the World: I Will Go” Spiritual Growth Objective 2: To increase accession, retention, reclamation, and participation of children, youth, and young adults The focus is for improved retention rates of young adults, youth, and unbaptized children, based on the collection of specific statistics on those groups. It also focuses on a significant increase in the number of church members regularly engaging in family worship.

This week we are joined by Gary Blanchard and Kevin Wilson. Gary Blanchard is the World Youth Director for the General Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Kevin Wilson is the Associate Pastor at the Oceanside Adventist Church. He is also the CEO of chai on TikTok.
