In the midst of a young generation that rejects the concepts of absolute truth, accountability to a divine Creator, and a single guide for all peoples of all cultures, we need to be reminded of the implications of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We must not be ashamed of the gospel! Rather, we must boldly embrace its message and share it to all the nations.
Student Global Impact exists for that purpose. On January 3-5, 2012, hundreds of college students and young adults will gather in the metro Detroit area for the SGI National Conference under the theme “Not Ashamed of the Gospel.” Join us as we focus on the Word through preaching, corporate singing, practical and academic workshops on missions issues, and fellowship with other young adults who love Jesus and the cause of His gospel.
We are convinced that we live in an important time period for the advance of the gospel. History has proven that young adults have played a crucial role in the mobilization and realization of a movement towards evangelizing the unreached peoples of the world.Through the mobilization ministry of SGI we desire to equip and network young adults who will be the catalyst for a revival of a movement once known as the Student Volunteer Movement.
SGI hosts the biannual National Conference in the Metro Detroit Area for the purpose of providing solid expositional Bible teaching from pastors and missionaries, scholarly and practical workshops, and ample opportunities for young adults to network.
The most recent conference, the 2010 SGI conference entitled “God’s Armor: Put it On” took place January 4-6, 2010. Additional information regarding the conference. View and download all 2010 Conference media.
SGI seeks to mobilize Christian young adults on Christian college campuses, on state university campuses, and in local churches.SGI representatives attend college and church missions conferences in an effort to connect students/churches to missions resources and stir the cause for gospel ministry around the world.If you are interested in inviting a speaker to come address your young adults, please click here.
