Are you a high school student who feels called to share God’s Word? The NextGen Ministry Search is your opportunity to use your voice for Christ. This event is open to students in grades 9–12 who want to grow in their ability to communicate Scripture and encourage others through teaching and preaching.

To participate, record a short devotion—no longer than five minutes—on a topic of your choice. Upload your video to YouTube as Unlisted, then complete the submission form below. The submission deadline is December 13, 2025.

After the deadline, a panel of judges will review all entries and select twelve finalists. During the conference, the finalists will present their devotions live in front of the judges and an audience. The judges will offer feedback and choose three winners who will receive college scholarships (details to be announced) and be recognized on the main stage.

The NextGen Ministry Search is about more than competition. It’s an opportunity to grow in your calling, develop your gifts, and inspire others through the power of God’s Word. Whether you’re just beginning to explore your calling or already leading in your church, this experience will help you take the next step in sharing your faith with confidence!
