Rooted 2013: What Are Your Teenagers Feeling?

Rooted 2013 will occur on October 10-12 in Atlanta and will feature workshops from authoritative, experienced speakers on an array of topics. You can explore all of the workshops here.

What makes a kid comfortable enough to trust you?  What makes them connect with one another and the group? Understanding “relationship” is fundamental to how we teach and share the gospel with our students, yet our students’ understanding of ‘relationship’ is fundamentally changing.  Liz Edrington, an experienced youth minister and candidate for a Masters in Counseling at Reformed Theological Seminary, will lead this study that provides insights into the dynamic, emotional complexities of teenagers.

Liz Edrington previously served as a youth minister for six years in Charlottesville, VA at Christ Episcopal Church and is currently pursuing her Masters in Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando.  She is the author of Feast, a devotional for teens.
