A unique context

Youth work in New Zealand takes place in a unique bicultural context. Our specific history is still incredibly relevant to young people today, and important to remember and understand when we approach ministry. In this class, Caleb's aim is to challenge and inspire youth ministries to honour the Treaty covenant, seeking to partner with God and his mission.

Informative and interactive

Caleb unpacks our rich and complicated history gently, encouraging a deeper, undiluted understanding of the Treaty of Waitangi without inferring guilt. He weaves in Biblical truths and suggests a Christian way of thinking about the Church's relationship with Māori culture. This class can even be interesting and helpful for those outside of youth ministry, who are just seeking to understand their place in the Treaty covenant today.

Learning together

This class lends itself particularly well to small groups, including a practical exercise that can be performed together. While you're more than welcome to take this course by yourself, it can be helpful to discuss and unpack these concepts with others. Grab your mates and give it a go!
