Young Adult Discussion Guide Series:
Young adults are often on the move—pursuing education, taking career steps, forming relationships, taking on responsibilities, and more. They’re finding their way between what is and what is about to be. Our young adult ministry discussion guides are designed to help ministry leaders and mentors walk alongside young adults through the seven most common transitions young adults face: Identity, Relationships, Responsibility, Contribution, Self-Care, Adapting, and Making Meaning.
Each research-driven guide features thought-provoking questions that create space for authentic conversations about the real stuff of life and reminds young adults God is with them, their faith still matters, and the community around them can support their journey.

Let’s talk: Life and faith as a young adult today
The Snapshot of Today's Young Adults featured in this guide is a collection of statements openly shared by young adults who participated in a research study on ministry innovations with young adults. As you lead this discussion, the perspectives and experiences represented in the Snapshot serve as a tool to help your young adult(s) identify and speak up about their own feelings and experiences. Together, you’ll consider the picture of faithful community painted in Romans 12:4-13 and what it means to be an authentic, sincere, and loving community with young adults today.
Bible passages referenced: Romans 12
We know ministering to young adults is rewarding—but also time-consuming and sometimes overwhelming. That’s why each discussion guide is:
-
Ready-to-use and adaptable—use it in a small group, a one-on-one coffee conversation, or a casual hangout.
-
Bible-connected and relevant—rooted in Scripture and designed to speak to young adults' everyday questions.
-
Built for authentic connection—helps young adults support one another and grow in faith-filled community.
-
Affordable and accessible—created with limited time and budgets in mind.
Our research-driven discussion guides are designed with busy leaders in mind, so you can say goodbye to stressful planning and focus on conversations that go deep.
