The Four Drivers of Switch
Switch is created intentionally and strategically to reach teens in changing and challenging times. Four key ideas drive the Jesus-centered model.
The Good News as good news.
Switch helps students learn that the story of Jesus is good news—and church is a safe, relevant, energetic, healing, fun place to be and to bring friends to!
Evangelism and Discipleship exist together.
In Switch, students learn how to find Jesus and how to follow Jesus, and they learn the truth of the Gospel so they can share Jesus with others.
Teens develop best in relationship.
Switch guides students to develop spiritually through key relationships: student-to-student, student-to-leader, and parent-to-ministry.
Your church is part of The Church.
Students discover that “church” isn’t a building, it’s people around the world who live like Jesus. They’ll learn to contribute to community and global missions, develop deep relationships, and prep for staying plugged into church when they transition to college.
Starting Strong
