This page is to help resource you and your church to do youth work well in the online space. We have gathered the best missional online youth worker resources that can help you reach and disciple young people in this COVID-19 season.
The Youth Bible Series
The Bible is the living word of God, eternally relevant and prophetically sharp in 2020 just as it will be for all of time! The Talking Jesus research showed that for 27% of practising Christians, reading the Bible for themselves was a key influence in their coming to faith. We have been working on a brilliant resource to help young people access and engage with the Bible. HOPE Together and The Bible Society have created The Youth Bible Series.
Mission Academy Live
 Mission Academy Live is a series of 10 innovative video-based sessions, each one empowering young people as missional disciples within a small group context, with a focus on peer-to-peer evangelism. Youth groups have been using it over Zoom to watch and then discuss how they can reach their friends online.
