LNP 40 | Helping the Next Gen Grow into an Adult Spirituality

July 4, 2023

We have been given the wildly important responsibility of walking alongside young people as they make this transition from childhood to adulthood; a transition we know often results in young people abandoning their faith – or at least their commitment to a spiritual community. In this episode, we welcome Willow Creek Online Campus and Next Gen Leader Faith Schiller onto the podcast to share the unique strategy she is helping her church and churches across the country utilize to effectively disciple the next generation into a mature faith.

Guest: Faith Schiller, Associate Online Campus Pastor at Willow Creek Community Church

Hosts: Hannah Gronowski Barnett and Aaron Barnett, Directors of Generation NEXT

Faith Schiller

Faith Schiller

Faith Schiller is the associate online campus pastor at Willow Creek Community Church and an MDiv student at Fuller Theological Seminary. She is passionate about young leaders and encouraging organizations to recognize and empower their unique perspectives and gifts. A strong voice recognized by older and younger audiences alike, Faith has taught and preached at Willow Creek, local universities, and national conferences. In a world that demands certainty and polarization, Faith believes the local church should be the safest place for young people to express doubts, ask questions, find form for failure, and navigate the nuances of life and belief. Faith’s enthusiasm, energy, and passion for the church and beyond makes her one of the visionary leaders of her generation.
