Cultivating God’s Brainforest
What can neurodiversity teach us about youth ministry? Alongside neurodivergent young people, parents, and youth workers, the Institute for Youth Ministry developed this digital course to help leaders better understand and engage the gifts of neurodiversity within the context of Christian congregations. The course aims to equip leaders to shape congregations in which young people of all neurotypes flourish.
This course was made possible by a generous grant from Fuller Youth Institute's “Character-Forming Youth Discipleship” project, funded by The John Templeton Foundation.
