How do young people intentionally transition from adolescence to young adulthood? It seems like our culture does not offer much guidance into how we grow and mature into healthy adults. We graduate from high school and somehow hope to stumble into adult life by (A) completing college, (B) getting a full time job, (C) getting married, (D) having kids. It's as though we stand at the crossing of a raging river and are left to our own devices as to how we navigate to the other side.
This podcast takes you into KIVU's '6 Stepping Stones' of growth towards young adulthood. Luke Parrott gives an overview of these critical areas of development that KIVU spends time developing over the course of the program.
Those 6 areas are:
-Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
-Cultural Competence (CQ)
-Faith Ownership & Integration
-Family & Belonging
-Passion & Calling
-Justice & Compassion
We believe these stepping stones give students a route across the river stream to enter young adulthood and grow towards who they were made to be.
