ReGeneration…why the name change?
“When I started my stint as student pastor at Vanguard in June of 2006 our high school ministry was called “XFactor”. I had no idea what that meant…or how we would ever live that out. We changed everything about the ministry in the next year except the name.
This past year has been incredibly defining in our ministry. During this time I began to sense that God was raising up new servants of God, and HE was giving us a new identity. During Servant Tribe we discussed what name would fit who God is molding us into. This was one name that came up. We voted on a Sunday morning between two great names, and this was our final choice.
So…how does this define our identity?
1) We are a new generation rising up within the Church.
2) We bring fresh life & growth to others, inspiring them & encouraging them toward God.
3) We want to give a fresh vision of who Jesus followers can and should be. We are not just a “do over” generation in the Church.
4) We believe in the call to lead others as we help define how other Christ followers can see Regeneration in their own lives.
Come along on this journey with us, the journey of finding our name again.”
