instigate meets monthly to discuss ways to help the teenagers of atlanta/decatur:
1. discover the ways in which God has been/is active in the world. (example: java hut, VOX, confirmation)
2.experience the ways in which God is mending their soul. (example: community groups, retreats)
3. partner with God in mending the world around them. (example: extensions, beautiful revolution grants)
instigate also meets in order to further develop their own gifts and find how God has uniquely shaped them to influence the world around them.
