The 10-4 Youth Conference - Complete Details and Information for Parents and Leaders


We are thrilled to announce a new faith-building, question-answering event hosted by Foundations Creation Club at Church of the Foothills,
The 10-4 Youth Conference, a special conference on creation vs. evolution, the biblical worldviewevangelism, and apologetics--for youth

“10-4” is the radio code signal for “understood,” which is not the sign today’s Christian youth are giving in response to their faith in Christ. According to Barna Research Group Studies, 3 out of 4 young people raised in the Church will leave after high school and college. Why is this? According to research done by America’s Research Group and Answers in Genesis, it is because they were never taught why they believe what they believe, how to view things through a biblical worldview, and were never given answers to the questions and attacks our modern culture throws at them. Attacks such as evolution, carbon-dating, the big bang, and ape-men rock the faith of Christian students to the core, and destroy faith in the Bible’s first and foundational book, Genesis. As a result, they are left unable to give answers for the Christian faith which is required of them (1 Peter 3:15), and they lose faith in God’s Word. What can we do to cure this epidemic? We should go to the Bible for the answer. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 declares, “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.” We need to show them why they believe what they believeequip young people to “think God’s thoughts after Him,” and to share their faith with others, while answering the questions of our day with answers founded in the authority of the Bible.

Where do we come in? - The 10-4 Youth Conference will apply this “10:4 Principle” by teaching students, 5th-12th Grade, to see the world around them through the correct set of glasses --a biblical worldview-- by unveiling the truth about the origins debate and showing how the Bible answers questions about scienceevolutiondinosaursfossilsnatural selectionastronomy, and many others! By doing this, we will show the students that the Bible is not only relevant, but necessary in order to view the world correctly and to share the truth of the Gospel with others.
